major areas of focus: A.) To identify marketable skills, transferable capabilities, and career objectives; B.) To generate

in evaluating opportunities and negotiating specific offers; E.) To provide ongoing counseling, coaching, and emotional support

ALL PROGRAMS INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING BASIC COMPONENTS:

C. You will be provided with our published workbook
and guide entitled “Tomorrow Is Today,” containing important supplementary written materials to aid you in your
job search. Included in its pages are examples of marketing letters for use in interview follow-up, networking, and
search firm contacts. It also contains vital information on self-evaluation, interviewing, negotiating, networking,
telephone usage, responding to advertisements, the unpublished job market, and a variety of other support and career development
tools.
D. Once you have completed the initial counseling
sessions we will be available to provide continuing telephone and email coaching and guidance throughout the
duration of your program. Our two-year program provides all the tools and support necessary to help you achieve
your career objectives as well as the support to ensure that you are successful in your new position.

3. Corporate Outplacement programs:
We offer both individual and seminar
Outplacement programs that can be tailored to the specific needs of any organization. Our marketing methods are unique,
highly proactive, and can provide you a much more cost-efficient alternative to the higher priced national Outplacement firms.
As opposed to major Outplacement firms that provide only several hours of counseling time with limited ongoing
support, we concentrate our efforts on spending all the time necessary to assist the individual in achieving new employment.
Over 50% of our clients are employed, creating a healthier environment for the job seeker.
We provide four Outplacement options to the corporate
community. Following is a brief overview of these options. More detailed program brochures are available on request.
-
We offer both one and two-day seminar formats
with an option for ongoing support. Pricing is based upon the selection of program options. Price quotes include
the cost of all support materials. Travel expenses (if necessary), and the cost of lodging and meals are billed as additional
expenses. The cost of the seminar facility would be at the company’s expense. Pricing might vary based
upon the number of participants, and we can adapt a program to deal with specific needs or issues. Contact
us for pricing information.
4. A marketing program for New College Graduates:
This program is specifically designed to assist the new
college or trade school graduate in launching their professional career. It focuses on all the basic components of implementing
a successful job search campaign. The initial process begins with two ½-day start-up counseling sessions in our Minneapolis
offices followed by up to two (2) months of ongoing telephone coaching, guidance, and mentoring support. A special
brochure outlining this program is available on request.
5. The complete job search workbook and guide:
For those companies that are restructuring or eliminating
jobs and wish to provide a cost-effective vehicle to assist their terminated employees in finding new employment, or
for those professionals conducting their own job search that cannot afford a professional career coach, we provide an extremely
comprehensive and detailed job search and career development guide entitled “TOMORROW IS TODAY.”
This 220-page workbook is a highly effective, no nonsense, self-marketing instrument to facilitate and guide the job
seeker through the entire search campaign. Contained in its pages are all the tools and information necessary to
help the job hunter win and keep their next position. It also features special sections on what to do if you’re
fired; portfolio development; handling performance reviews; managing on-the-job growth issues; valuable information for the
