Join us for this week's episode of Ivy Exec Insights, where we dive into the world of LinkedIn and how to make the most of this powerful networking platform.
In "LinkedIn Rewrite - Start Your Networking The Right Way," we will share tips and strategies for revamping your LinkedIn profile, growing your network, and effectively reaching out to potential connections.
Whether you're a seasoned professional or just starting out, this episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to make meaningful connections and take their career to the next level. Tune in now!
Networking is an essential part of career advancement and yet so many people are uncomfortable with networking.
Unfortunately, showing excellence in your work isn’t sufficient for career advancement, and some people find that out too late in their career.
In this episode we will summarize how to start networking and what to avoid.
For many, corporate work has lost its shine. Perhaps you feel a tug toward work that feels more connected to your values. Maybe you have specific community interests where you’d like to make an impact.
Or, you’ve seen firsthand the good that nonprofits do, and you want to be a part of it.
Your LinkedIn profile is not a virtual resume. It is an online representation of who you are.
Using LinkedIn to purposefully and strategically curate your personal brand can generate new opportunities, strengthen your professional standing, and open you to new networking avenues. Ivy Exec’s Career Advisory Team has helped hundreds of individuals strengthen their LinkedIn presence, and now they’re sharing their knowledge with you.
Join us as we hear from Ivy Exec's own Senior Career Advisor Anastazija Gavrilovic.
Anastazija is a Career Advisor who worked with more than 1,000 clients ranging from entry-level to the C-Suite across various industries. She helps clients learn how to embark on their job search in the most effective way.
In this session, we will talk about her career path, professional experience, the services that Ivy Exec has to offer for your own personal growth, and much more!
Despite the great deal of uncertainty surrounding us, one thing that is for sure is that we are going to be zooming as part of our professional lives a lot more going forward than we ever imagined. This is both good and bad. Good because we can reach out to people and share ideas across the miles, but bad because giving presentations in person is already hard for most of us. Toss in having to talk to a blinking light on our computers with barking dogs and kids in the background and it can be a recipe for disaster - or at least a stilted less than exciting presentation. However, there are some linguistic tricks that can help you with audience engagement.
It can be tough out there. Finding opportunities is not easy. You’ve probably heard that networking is the key to your job search, but you’re wondering how to go about it. Where to start?
In this session we will cover some important topics like:
- How to think about networking in a way that inspire confidence, not panic
- Nine networking habits to avoid
- As well as a model for conducting an easy, comfortable, successful networking meeting
Executive search firms can feel like the ultimate in don't call us, we'll call you. So how do you get on their radar?
And, what can you expect if you do get that call?
Join us as Marcia Ballinger, PhD, Co-Founder and Principal at Ballinger|Leafblad, a national executive search firm, demystifies the executive search process.
What does power mean to you? Taking charge or taking care? If you are female (or support “feminine” values) research suggests you want the power to do both.
The problem is that some jobs only reward competitive thinkers who define power as the ability to dominate (“own the market,” “kill the competition”). These kinds of jobs leave collaborative thinkers thirsty for the joy and benefits of care-taking.
In highly competitive systems, providing care, nurturing the weak, or passing up short term wins for long term gains is unrewarded or even punished as a lost opportunity to dominate. These restrictions generate enough “moral distress” that we leave or fail to apply. When accepting a hyper-competitive job feels like you have sold your soul, no salary can compensate us enough to stay.
Two professionals. Same job title. Same industry. Same region.
And yet: one person is making 30-40% more than the other.
One person will get the lion’s share of promotion opportunities.
One person will be respected along higher and higher strategic levels- while the other will be treated as little more than a glorified worker bee.
This is the executive underclass. It is going on across all industries, and if you’re unfamiliar with it… you are very likely one of its victims.
