Career Tailwind Series #1: Reset & Reposition - Build your foundation and personal brand

Career Tailwind Series 

Losing a job. Hitting a ceiling. Pivoting industries. Returning to work after a break. Every mid-career transition comes with the same questions: What do I do next? How do I position myself? Where do I even start?

The Career Tailwind is a 3-part workshop series designed for mid-career professionals navigating job transitions, career changes, or a return to the workforce. You’ll walk away with a practical, repeatable framework you can apply immediately, not theory, but strategies that come from real lived experience.

Each session is designed around one idea: you are not just an applicant, you are a product going to market. 

Across three events, you’ll learn how to prepare yourself intentionally, position yourself compellingly, reach the right people, and show up in interviews as a problem solver, not just a candidate.

Workshop Insights

Workshop 1: Reset & Reposition - Build your foundation and your brand 

The start of any career transition is the hardest. The instinct is to rush. Update your CV, blast it out, hope for the best. But scattered effort leads to scattered results.

You will gain practical strategies to rebuild confidence, identify transferable strengths, and position yourself effectively for new career opportunities. 

You’ll leave with a refined target list, a rewritten CV section, and a LinkedIn headline you can use immediately.
