FEI Professional Development Session March 7, 2017 

Join FEI Twin Cities for a professional development session "Power your Career: The Art of Tactful Self-Promotion at Work" on Tuesday, March 7th, 2017!

Tactful self-promotion is a critical competency for finance leaders, whether you’re: a leader wanting to create
more visibility for your department and yourself; at mid-career and interested in expanding your influence; or
just starting out your career. Everyone needs to increase their visibility if they want the opportunities,
recognition and the rewards that they deserve.
You will learn practical strategies for:

•  Positioning yourself in ways that highlight your value, differentiators and accomplishments
• Cultivating strategic relationships and expand your network of influence
• Gaining constructive visibility by managing meetings, and working a room
• Leveraging social media, especially with LinkedIn, and building an online platform
• Promoting your team and your department

This is a fast-paced, interactive presentation that will help even the most reserved to increase their visibility
without violating their integrity and values (and without triggering a panic attack!). 
Nancy Burke and Richard Dodson have a total of 40+ years doing career coaching. Based on their work with,
literally, thousands of people who were interested in advancing their careers, the presenters have created a
model, strategies and tactics,
They have recently published a book, “Power your Career: The Art of Tactful Self-Promotion at Work.”

Every attendee will receive a copy of the book!
