“I wish I knew….” When reflecting on their academic and professional careers, even the most accomplished individuals can cite at least one thing that they wish they had known early on—instead of having to learn it the hard way. While experience is often still the best teacher, for some the stakes are higher.
The Business of Me teaches participants how to think critically, understand the unwritten rules of business, learn best practices for success, and finesse the nuance of soft skills. The workshop teaches these skills via fun, (deceptively) simple, interactive exercises that help participants to define their individual brand and map their own blueprint for success—and operate confidently in all areas of life on their own terms.
Participants attending “The Business of Me” will:
- Become more confident and comfortable handling competitive situations
- Learn how to advocate, monetarily, for what their talent is worth—as employees or entrepreneurs
- Understand how to introduce themselves in a memorable way to adults and professionals who can support them in moving their long-term goals forward
- Help them to cultivate the skills that will help them to stand out in an interview, and emerge as the best candidate
