September 15, 22, 29, October 6 FROM 6-7:30 PM Central

If you’ve been delaying getting to work on finding your “next” in your career, this is the perfect place to jump-start this important project.

In this four-session group coaching program (plus one 1×1 coaching session), work with executive and career coach, Art Petty and your cohort members to move from thinking about a “someday” career to change to working on uncovering the right move for you at this stage of your life. In this program, you:

  • Spend time assessing the right options that leverage your abilities, interest, and accumulated wisdom.
  • Cast a wide net by building your BIG Idea List first and then narrowing options later.
  • Identify the criteria any career change must meet to be acceptable and use these criteria to down-select to candidate options.
  • Develop the plans to further explore and experiment with the leading ideas before committing to a change.

The time in the program will help you bring this project to life and provide a roadmap for the next steps!
