Topic de jour: **Rebranding Yourself After 50: Shaping the Next Chapter of Your Career**

***

**Learning Objectives**

* Understand what “rebranding” means in a mid- or late-career context.
* Explore your motivations, strengths, and transferable value.
* Practice articulating your “new story” to others with clarity and confidence.
* Leave with an actionable insight about your next steps.

**Here's the Plan:**

***

**1\. Welcome & Framing**

* Briefly define rebranding in mid-career: changing how you’re perceived while honoring your expertise

**2\. Self\-Reflection: Mapping Your “Why"**

* *Why* am I considering rebranding now?

**3\. Dyad Discussion: “When” and “Where”**

* *When* in my life/career did I last successfully pivot? What did I learn?
* *Where* do I see opportunities for this new brand to be visible (LinkedIn, volunteering, networking groups, speaking)?

**4\. Triad Activity: “How” and “What”**

* *How* I want to be perceived differently (style, language, visuals, networks).
* *What* concrete step I can take in the next 30 days to embody this new brand.

***

**5\. Whole\-Group Debrief & Insights**

* “What surprised you about how others see your new brand?”

***

**6\. Short Story and a Question**

* **Short Story Example: The Story of Vera Wang**
