Tips for Changing Roles, Changing Industries
With the rapid pace of technology advancement and global business dynamics, it is more challenging for senior execs to stay within an industry. In addition, it has become more appealing to bring their executive management skills from an older, more established industry to an emerging industry with great opportunities, and the need for seasoned executives.

Please join this month’s facilitator Sandra Wales from Wales Investments as she covers the trends for shifting roles and industries and strategies on how to successfully do so. Whether you’re considering the move from high tech to clean energy or life science, or whether you’re considering going from a corporate role to a small business professional or vice versa, this month’s event is sure to provide the insights, advice and connections to assist in the shift from one role or one industry to another.

We hope you will join us in what is sure to be an interactive and engaging conversation.
