Career Skills for the New Economy Seminar

Complete Package

This seminar is about creating success for oneself in the new economy. It offers you best practices that come directly from the real strategies of real people who are really succeeding on their own terms. These practices are among the most important findings of ongoing workplace-interview research conducted by RainmakerThinking since the mid 1990's.

The underlying assumption of Career Skills for the New Economy is that, in the new economy, individuals will have to be extremely good at fending for themselves if they are to survive and succeed. The most successful people will position themselves as free agents and sell their skills and abilities on the open market. Even those who work for the same employer for years on end will have to take responsibility for their own success and security.

Seminar Includes:

  • Complete Leader's Guide to Career Skills for the New Economy (100 pp)
  • PowerPoint Presentation
  • One Career Skills for the New Economy Workbook (Each workbook includes one copy of the paperback, Career Skills for the New Economy

How To Really Achieve Your Goals - DVD

Nearly all companies and individuals say goals are important. Whether they are sales goals, production goals, personal finance goals, or weight loss goals they are deemed important. Yet many times we set our goals without much real thought. "Our new sales goal is to increase last year's sales by 10%." Why? Maybe it should be 20%. But without any real thought no one is really sure.

  • Why it's important to set accurate goals
  • How to set goals so they mean something
  • The GRASP IT goals achievement system
  • Why planning is critical to both your business and personal life

Divided into segments, this DVD is perfect for group training or may be used for individual instruction. This how-to training program comes with a DVD, CD audio and goals-setting booklet. It is a must for any individual and organization. (Length: 35 minutes)

Creating You and Company: How to Think Like the CEO of Your Own Career- DVD

The majority of Americans are employed, but there is a widespread sense that no one's job is secure. Temporary workers, contractors, and outsourced employees are doing the work that yesterday belonged to the organization's own full-time, long-term workers. In short, jobs as we have always known them are going away. William Bridges explains how individuals can cope—and even triumph—with a career that is not based on holding a job. $99.99 [Add to Cart]
