Take Charge of Your Career
About the class
With unemployment high over the last few years, many people have been looking for a job when there is a lot of competition and little new job creation. Not only can this situation be devastating financially, it can also have a huge impact on your self-esteem and outlook.
In this class, you will learn a framework, along with some specific tools, to help you take a hands-on approach to managing your career and increasing opportunities. This approach can help you manage your long-term personal and professional growth and development. These tools work regardless if you are: unemployed, employed but want to change positions, or a consultant who must constantly generate new projects.
