ACS Virtual Office Hour - 'Career Transitions: Making Them Your Best Opportunity.'
Our careers are rarely a straight line up - they can be full of mountains and valleys and a roller coaster of transitions. In fact, the average person will change careers 5 to 7 times during their working life!
Join us on Thursday, May 2 at 12:00pm ET as the American Chemical Society (ACS) presents our next Virtual Office Hours event, 'Career Transitions: Making Them Your Best Opportunity.'
During this session, ACS Certified Career Consultant Lucinda Jackson will provide a 5-step process to help you focus on making the most of your career transition. Whether you are finishing school and heading off to your first job, thinking of changing jobs, recovering from a lay-off or re-organization, moving to a new career, or considering post-career options, you’ll be faced with how to cope and make the change as positive and fulfilling as possible. The five steps will help you:
- Identify your Opportunity: Create a personal vision statement and find your core values.
- Generate and Select Alternatives: Use your research and science tools to brainstorm ideas based on core value criteria.
- Develop Your Preferred Alternative: Map out the plan.
- Execute: Take action.
- Operate and Evaluate: Use metrics and a scorecard to see if you are on the right track or need to recycle.
