The Hunt | Charting the Path to Your Next Career Move | Friday, March 7th 12:00- 1:00PM | Online Event | This workshop will be led by Peter Boyd — a CBEY Resident Fellow, Yale Lecturer, and independent coach - who's worked alongside innovators like Richard Branson to combat climate change as a senior leader at the B Team and the Carbon War Room, led Virgin Mobile South Africa as CEO, and more. He will provide tools that he has shared with hundreds of Yale students and seasoned executives to help you assess what is important for you in crafting your next position, to get a clearer sense of your purpose, and to create your own distinct (and by-definition-less-crowded) path to get there. The goal is for you to finish the session with a sharper pitch, more tightly connected to your purpose; and (the start of) a ‘hunt’ dashboard that will be unique to you. You’ll also have collected best-practice tips on how to convert promising ideas and leads to a firm offer for your next chapter. Register here.
