The “Your Dream Job” October series with Lacey Hopkins will include:

  • Learning how to take back the power in your job search
  • Creating a clear vision of what you want
  • Designing a path that works best for you (not for someone else).

Tools provided in this series include a job-match rating system, decision-making tools, the Getting It Done project management tool, and “Now What?!” – a suite of tools for future personal and professional development.

And, for the budding/curious entrepreneur, there will be some bonus tools for developing the concept for your own business and getting started.

Because this series is aimed at young professionals (20- and 30-somethings) and those in later career transitions, this series is offered at a “pay-what-it’s-worth” price. The suggested donation is $100 for all five weeks of training, but participants will get to choose how much to invest.

Lacey is also available for speaking engagements, one-on-one coaching and group trainings this fall. If you have questions about this event or about professional coaching, tweet @LaceyHopkins or email Lacey at lacey.hopkins@accomplishmentcoaching.com.
