CAREER (S)ELECTION CAMPAIGN!

“Out of the Box” Thinking + Actions = Career Transition Success

GET OUT AND STAY OUT OF THAT BOX !

God gave us talents and the choice to bury, use or invest & multiply them!

• Break some rules (not God's), get results

• Dare to be different! Creative personal marketing

• The roles you will play in career transition

• Belief + Planning + Action = Achievement

• 30 Second Elevator Pitch or the long ride to the ground floor

• Networking: Asking for help, direction, and guidance from all who know you. (What to say and what not to say.)

• Great leads from unlikely sources.

• Transfer skills to other opportunities and industries

• Never confuse effort with results, time lost is forever gone

• The question that can cost you thousands of dollars, and more…

• Why you should follow up on all leads and with those who provided them

• Seek and find opportunities to help others.

• Thank God for what you have.
