Description
Presented by: Catherine Morgan, Career Transition Coach, Business Consultant to Consultants, Point A to Point B Transitions Inc.
Have you been put in a position where you have to make a change because you were laid off? Are you feeling stuck or overwhelmed? Join Catherine Morgan, an engaging speaker who draws her audience in with illustrative stories, case studies, and humor. Transition is a time to evaluate – a time of opportunity. Now is a great time to focus on new beginnings – gain the confidence to launch your job search. Catherine will demonstrate how you can re-frame transition, cover what is the new normal, discuss the roller coaster of search, and share how to have an easier transition. Come away with some “quick hits” to build confidence, and accountability and momentum. Her talk includes tips to create the right mindset for success, and actionable techniques that you can immediately use in your search. She is not afraid to poke fun at herself – or the fears we all face. Catherine generates enthusiasm and engagement. She also is comfortable fielding the tough questions.
