There was a great buzz at the Do You Know Your Skills? Workshop last night as people brainstormed each other’s potential careers based on the skills that they love using.
There was also lots and lots of chatting over tea afterwards which is a good sign and it brought a smile to my face :).
Next evening workshops in series of 4:
7 May – Does Your CV need a Makeover?
4 June – Are you ready for the Interview?
‘I felt a renewed burst of energy from all the creativity in the room last night. I was positively spewing out creative ideas today……Mary, you’ve got to do more of these!’ Feedback from a participant in ‘Do You Know What You Really Want?’ last night.
The workshop was a great success. The lovely cosy room in the Lantern Centre was strewn with magazines, coloured card, pictures, pritt stick and scissors as people flicked through magazines …. cutting, sticking and filling in their Vision Boards. It was truly inspiring.
This was the 1st in a series of 4 career coaching workshops. Please let me know if there is a topic you would like covered. Like me on Facebook or follow me on my website for updates.
Do You Know What You Really Want?
It occurred to me that Dublin is ready to build a community of people who are ready for a change of career or who are job-hunting and want to develop their skills or improve their focus. The group is called Career Building Group and there will be monthly meetings focused on different topics.
The first event is Do you know what you really want? – we will be creating our Career Vision Boards. If you haven’t done a Vision Board before, it’s great fun and can be very inspiring. It’s on Tuesday 12 March from 7pm – 9.30pm with a cup of tea afterwards to give you a chance to meet like-minded people and to chat about the evening.
