Emplana Career in a Nutshell

People generally think of management as "boss behavior", task accomplishment, or some such.  But, formal managements studies include decision trees, linear algebra, and optimization problems.  For career work, we want to optimize a mix of career activities to drive improved outcomes.  

We work for a balance across skills breadth vs depth, types of networking, personal branding, etc. in our approach and consulting.

Several times a year we run seminars that (a) explore elements of our methodology or (b) focus on new and emerging topics.  We keep them small in size and lead with an Emplana Career construct or position and do a quick "around the table".  So far, we've tended to invite from our collective network, but please see the Members page if it sounds interesting to you.

"I liked that there was a mix of instruction, insights, and summarizing of insights from the leader and through thoughts of the group"

We put together a 60 page career workbook released for Amazon Kindle.  It takes the form of a 5-day, Monday to Friday, set of guided activities that move from career retrospection to exploration to developing a short-term plan.  See the Members downloads for a preview of the Calendar Graphic.

We are building a platform for career insights, experiences, and other contributions from outside the company.   We have a structure, submission guidelines, and have started a conversation with university career offices and others in the company network.
