OUR UPCOMING GUEST SPEAKER AND TOPIC:
Winning The Executive Interview!
with: Marcia Ballinger
“I’ve never seen anyone “talk their way into a job” but I have seen hundreds of people “talk their way out of a job.”
When the stakes are high, you want to be sure that you are putting your best foot forward.
How should I think about interviews in the context of my entire job search? What is the best way to get ready for an interview? What should I always say? What should I never say? And, how should I be prepared for the most common interview questions?
Marcia Ballinger will lead this session. She is a longtime Twin Cities executive search leader and is Co-Founder and Principal at Ballinger|Leafblad, St Paul-based search firm focused on serving civic and non-profit sectors.
She is also a highly acclaimed author of successful business books including:- The 20-Minute Networking Meeting
- Winning The Executive Interview
- and... Make the Jump. Reinvent Your Career in the Nonprofit Sector
...Then stay after the presentation, at 9am for the Networking With Grace Meeting and "FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS DURING JOB TRANSITION" Q&A at 10:45!

OUR UPCOMING GUEST SPEAKER AND TOPIC:
ROI in Job Search
The 80/20 Rule (But Not What You Think)
with: David MagyLet’s be clear . . . . . job search is hard work.
With all of the technology available in every aspect of the marketplace, finding a job should be quick and easy (just like getting an ‘answer’ to any question through Google or ChatGPT). We feel busy conducting the search, but are we productive? Are we showing up in the best possible manner?
The focus of the presentation is to talk about the job search techniques that are actually getting results.
Topics that will be addressed include:
- How will people find you? Creating and executing a strategy to be visible.
- Networking connection versus referral activities.
- Job support groups . . . . . not all are created equally.
- Not everything is available through Google or ChatGPT.
- ‘Blurred’ is not your best look.
- Job search tools and skills that need to be practiced.
David Magy, over the past 30 years, has earned the reputation as “expert” in the field of retained search, corporate recruitment and workforce consulting. He has worked extensively with human resource staffing system design from both the corporate and consulting perspectives.
In 1996, David further used his knowledge to help establish Abeln, Magy, Underberg & Associates as a respected partner in recruiting key talent within a large array of business. David is a nationally recognized speaker and blogs on matters related to search, staffing and ethics.
David is very active in the community, working as a “friend of the board” within three non-profit organizations. David enjoys many hobbies and pursuits – he is known as a person who ‘collects experiences.’
