Presentation: a Discussion Panel: Being in Transition Multiple Times”
In this day and age of constant technological change and increased competition, the likelihood of staying with a single employer throughout your career is highly unlikely. It is now likely that you will find yourself in transition more than one time.
So what can you do to prepare for such an impactful event? This month the Breakfast Club will hold its 2nd Panel Format that will provide a variety of “real life” transition viewpoints which include:
• Changes to their career approach based on multiple transitions
• The financial impact
• Skills they acquired – or needed to acquire.
• What advice/help did they get from their network
• “Best practices” based on previous experiences (What worked / what didn’t)
Our Moderator: George Pace, George is a Director / Enterprise Architect at Prudential Financial Services where he is currently focusing on Cloud and DevOps Architecture. In his spare time helps people leverage the power of Social Media.
