EVENT DETAILS
We often seek a career transition to find more meaningful work or a mission that connects with us personally. This search leads many to shift their focus to the nonprofit sector which can be both exhilarating and daunting at the same time. Whatever stage you are in your career transition, going through a process of informed reflection and developing a clear plan of action is crucial to your success.

This workshop is designed to help you reinvent yourself; steep yourself in the world of nonprofit work, and begin to map out a strategy to achieve your career transition. The first step is to fully understand the realities of what its really like to work in an organization and to be able to articulate, both to yourself and eventually to others, your motivation to change sectors. What is missing in your current experience that you seek in the nonprofit sector? How do you foresee a job at a nonprofit addressing that gap? From there, crafting a job search is more complicated when you are transitioning sectors. This workshop will help you to translate your skills and accomplishments to fulfill the needs of a nonprofit.

WHAT YOULL LEARN:
* How to craft a narrative to support your transition to the nonprofit sector
* An understanding of the organizational and leadership structure of a nonprofit
* The lexicon of nonprofits vs. for-profit companies
* How to define skills that are transferable to the nonprofit sector
* Understanding the culture of nonprofits
* The realities of working in a nonprofit role
* Begin to chart actionable steps to achieve your goal of entering the nonprofit sector

WHO THIS CLASS IS FOR:
* Professionals at any stage in their career who are in the process of or contemplating the decision to transition to a nonprofit job mc39
