I am excited to share with you that I was one of 150 career practitioners who attended the 2010 Career Thought Leaders Conference & Symposium at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Baltimore, March 22-24, to learn cutting-edge career strategies, trends and solutions to help you take better control of your career.

With unemployment rates at historic highs and rapid changes in how companies source candidates, it is essential that you be fully equipped to help job seekers manage a full-throttle job search efficiently and effectively.

While resumes are still a must-have document for job seekers, they are only the tip of the iceberg. Every speaker at the conference urged attendees to become career communications managers who can equip people like you with social media profiles, personal branded bios, electronic career portfolios and other next-generation documents.

Additional conference content focused on social media and online identity, two critical areas for success in today’s job market. Whether or not you are in a job search, it is important to contribute powerful, relevant content about your industry or area of expertise. Actions like this will you help you attract recruiters, hiring managers to your Twitter, FaceBook and LinkedIn pages.

A day-long program on career coaching and job search coaching ended the conference. The knowledge I gained now allows me to provide innovative techniques and up-to-date information to empower and assist you in finding meaningful work.

Please call me if you have any questions.
