Product of You™: How to Design and Build a Fulfilling and Future-Proof Career

Creative and tech professionals passionately apply design and creativity to create products and solve other people’s problems. But there’s an unknown irony that holds them back – they fail to apply their creative and technical muscles to address problems in their careers.

As a result, many professionals get stuck in unfulfilling jobs, aren’t paid what they’re worth, don’t pursue their dreams, and lack the confidence to reach their full professional potential.

To have a more fulfilling career, and life, you must treat your career as a product. Doing so will help you get hired faster, be ready for unexpected job searches or when opportunities fall in your lap, and make you a more effective employee when you are hired.
⁠
In this workshop, you’ll learn how to build and iterate your career through the 3 key elements that make up the Product Of You™:
⁠
🎁 Product: Your skills, talent, and experience.⁠
📣 Marketing: Communicating what you do.⁠
💸 Sales: Standing out so you can get hired.⁠
⁠
You’ll leave with actionable steps and strategies you can apply to your career now, and for many years to come.
