“Networking For Career Change” with Michael Chiappinelli, Sr. V.P. Karl Barth

Many successful people find themselves in a career transition. This often involves rethinking how we approach our next career opportunity. The process can be frustrating and take longer than we anticipated.

Join Michael Chiappinelli, ChFC, MBA, Financial Planner and Senior Vice President with Karl Barth Associates/AXA Advisors on Friday, August 30th from 9:30 to 11:30 A.M.

Michael will relate his experience in changing careers from a corporate leader of technology and business improvement processes to a financial planner in a step by step, easy to follow and implement guide.

This program will help people understand how to take control of the search process. By taking a business approach to your job search, we identify ways to make your search more productive. This is particularly helpful if you are considering a career change.

In this stirring, thought-provoking and motivational session you will learn:

• How to create a business plan for your job search.
• How to define what it is you are “selling”.
• How to identify and build potential advocates to help your search process.
• How to develop and create marketing and networking plans to expand your network.
• How to properly use your network to locate information, opportunities and introductions.

At the end of the session, you will have a much better idea on organizing a job search, with building a roadmap to finding information about companies, careers and opportunities as well as developing a structure for more effective networking and introductions.
