The mission of Career Thought Leaders has been clear from the beginning: to raise the visibility and credibility of the industry by keeping careers industry professionals up on the trends, creating opportunities for networking, and providing industry-leading educational experiences.
We have a big job to do in the careers industry. Often times we are speaking to clients who aren’t familiar with what we do and trying to educate them on our value so they will invest (time and/or money). Without this investment, they won’t see results.
Even when they invest, results often don’t come as quickly or cleanly as everyone hopes. Job search is messy. Career change is a looping, spiraling process – not the straight line most envision it to be.

This is why CTL and RWA do what we do. You need the latest data, tools, and strategies to best serve your clients. While it can help, no amount of marketing can change perception of our industry. We change that perception as each of us have positive interactions with clients and demonstrate to them the power of what we do. We also want to create opportunities for you to shine, advance your career, and build visibility. This is one of the reasons we piloted creating quotes for Career Jam attendees last year and will build on it this year. We’ll have more of these opportunities outside of Career Jam, so stay tuned! You’ve heard over the last few weeks why I’m so passionate about Career Jam, but here are a few reasons your colleagues have enjoyed attending throughout the years… |
