Structure
With Lassiter Consulting, you'll learn a system of how to
approach your career management that not only will accomplish your immediate
career transition, but also will set you up with skills and relationships that
will enable you to plan and accomplish goals for the long term.
How to change jobs effectively
is a skill few professionals wish to practice. It's normal to live through most
of your career accepting internal promotions, word of mouth referrals, or being
recruited by another company so that dealing with a job search is avoided.
Sometimes, however, the "luck" runs out. So many changes are happening so
rapidly to so many companies that the need for you to take control of your own
career management and planning will catch up with you. You'll be glad that it
did.
With Lassiter Consulting, you'll learn a system of how
to approach your career management that not only will accomplish your immediate
career transition, but also will set you up with skills and relationships that
will enable you to plan and accomplish goals for the long term.
It will include all the traditional areas that career
management should include:
- Assessment, testing
- Career focus
- Industry targeting
- How to mount a campaign
- Resume development
- Database research
- Networking training
- Channel management: search firms, ads
- Interviewing videotaping
- Negotiating instructions
- On-going campaign support
- Strategy
Getting the right
doors opened takes strategy. Once you've secured a meeting, maximizing your
interviewing and negotiating approaches so you arrive at the optimum package
takes strategy. Lassiter Consulting's expertise enables you to set your
strategy from the beginning so that the job search process enables you to end
up with a position you choose rather than one you settle for.
Who are your markets? What are
their needs? What can you offer to meet these needs? Examining yourself like a
new product on the marketplace and answering these questions as a base for your
strategic planning will set you apart from others.
After you have defined your markets, defining your
"product" is critical. No one else has as much information about you or as much
at stake in the results of the process as you. Know how you can make a
difference for an organization is only the beginning, however, because then the
message must be clearly, crisply communicated. Your resume, your interviews,
your voice and e-mails must meet the needs of your markets quickly and
accurately to sustain their attention.

- Executive Expertise
As a
Lassiter Consulting client you not only have executive networking meetings
included as part of your program, but you also have access to the opportunities
that "landed" clients and the multiple search firm and corporate referrals
bring to the company as a result of a complimentary referral service.
As New England Director of
ExecuNet and Alliance Partner with Mastery Works, Lassiter Consulting brings
multiple resources to bear that enable you to identify and access senior level
connections. The Senior Executive Roundtable for executives with compensation
levels of over $200,000 enables you to network within a controlled,
confidential environment for new insights and hidden opportunities to
incorporate into your campaign. The monthly ExecuNet Regional Meetings of
professionals with compensation levels of over $75,000 bring you outstanding
speakers addressing areas of executive career management and a broad network of
other senior level colleagues who will help you accomplish your goals.
Lassiter Consulting clients not only have the
appropriate meetings included as part of your program, but you also have access
to the opportunities that "landed" clients and the multiple search firm and
corporate referrals bring to the company as a result of a complimentary
referral service.
Senior executives need a different level of expertise
from a consultant managing their career campaigns than is often found. How to
approach venture capital firms, the most prestigious search firms, Boards of
Directors, and networks all vary and need to be handled correctly the first
time. There is often just one "trip to the well." Lassiter Consulting has a
reputation and track record of coaching executives in the best ways to make
these "trips" so you bring back options, in all senses of the word.
- Customization
Examples of
customization that Lassiter Consulting has provided to eliminate the
bottlenecks in campaigns speak for themselves: sending computer experts to your
home to set up your PC for the job search; providing memberships in relevant
professional associations; finding child care for a last minute interview;
consulting on immediate needs during nights and weekends; membership in
ExecuNet for senior level job listings;
unlimited access to appropriate levels of networking meetings, etc.
We are there when you need us with what you
need.
- Access
Full program clients get top priority in access to the consulting expertise
you need when you need it. Not only do you have night and weekend access when
needed, you also have those questions that pop up during a campaign that you
call or e-mail in answered quickly and expertly by a senior consultant. Want to
practice a question on videotape that you're not sure that you handled well in
an interview? Want some specialized research? Need a quick, expert opinion?
You've got it.
- Results
Lassiter
Consulting clients report that their careers are enhanced for the long term as
a result of the skills that they learned during their transition. The
relationship of Career Transition Program clients with Lassiter Consulting
continues even after you "land" the work that you want. Services are not ended
after a finite number of months. Your satisfaction is the objective. Clients
are encouraged to keep in touch for career needs as you progress in your
career.
