    I've had 13 jobs since I graduated from college; ten (10) while I worked for IBM.

    I planned for seven (7) of these transitions and the rest were a total surprise - some good, some not so good.

    I have been very happy with most of my jobs, but I will always wonder what my life would have been like had I know some simple career planning skills.

    Life happens!

    You never know when you will be offered a new job or you will have to start looking for one.

    But the more you know about yourself, the better prepared you are for any eventuality.

    Planning for a transition is never easy when you just found out about it or are in the middle of it. That is why the best time to plan for that eventual transition is when you are happy and secure in one.

    If you agree, take a look at a roadmap for this blogging platform to see if it is right for you.

    Great teleclass.  Dan provided some great insights in a clear and easy to understand way. name optional:  Lou Ballester

     

    Excellent!  

     

    Very interesting, organized and thought provoking. thank you, Constance Stevens

     

    Daniel was very forthcoming and a wonderful guest. Sally, you've picked some great guests to interview. I've enjoyed them all. Daniel spun multiple theories together very well - Bolles, Krumboltz, Seligman, etc. - and simply, creatively, organizes the usefulness of each part of the 3-legged stool in the career process. I'm sure the success of the manga format will be quickly realized. I plan to buy it and pass it around to family members and clients.

    Thank you for a great hour! Very enjoyable. Mary Lynne 

     

    I enjoyed hearing quite a different perspective on career development topics with regard to the six lessons.  Some of which I heard ring true and others that provided me with a dimensional intent that inspires me to think out of the box.  The experience was well worth my time and very convenient.  Thank you. Bernadette Amato 

     

     

    An excellent and insightful presentation by one of my favorite authors. Mr. Pink's conversation with us was engaging, energetic, refreshingly counterintuitive. To my way of thinking, that means it was right on! Thank you for providing this opportunity.  Barry Davs

     

    I was quite excited to hear directly from Daniel Pink. I read "A Whole New Mind" last year and have always felt that creativity and looking at a problem from multiple viewpoints is generally more productive than  linear model. Still, I do think his ideas seem to be too simplistic and perhaps more media driven than content driven. I am intrigued by Pink's upcoming manga publication, "The Adventures of Johnny Bunco..." and hope that it has something solid to offer the younger generation with regard to career management.  I have a son almost 21 and two nephews in their 20's on whom I will "field test" the graphic novel. I do wish Dan had answered the second part of my question about "A Whole New Mind"--that is, if he re-wrote it in a R-brain manner, wouldn't it have more images and perhaps mind-mapping graphics rather than so much text?  I had other questions to ask about that book, but I'm glad Sally kept us focused on the building a business theme rather than going! off on another direction (which my questions would have done). This was WELL worth the time and effort, and I look forward to participating in other teleinterviews! Damona Sain

     

    Helpful and thought provoking.

     

    I found his discussion about "monga" /comic books in Japan, very interesting as was his"Six Key things or ideas" needed for a successful career." He's a good  speaker and his "personalization" made his discussion even more interesting and informative. I had heard him speak once before and had previously read one of his earlier books.You made a good choice!! Gil  Benjamin,MCC,NCCC
