Workshop at the Pinecrest Library - Valuable Information

I was fortunate to be one of the panelists at a program at the Pinecrest branch of the Miami Dade Library System last Saturday. Other panelists included Roselyn Smith, PhD, and Concepcion Tuma, a local Human Resources professional, as well as Claire Berger, Business Broker. Our goal was to share information to provide support and strategies to deal with this recession environment. A common theme from all the presenters stressed the importance of understanding who you are, what skills you have to offer (and enjoy!), and the overall importance of self-assessment. We also talked about ways to stand out from other applicants if you are looking for a job with a company, as well as the ways to approach buying or starting a business. The library will conduct 4 more workshops related to the economic issues of today, and I hope that more people will attend the upcoming workshops. Dates are 6/27, 7/11, 7/25 and 8/15 at 2:00 - for more informatio, call the library at 305-668-4571, for information on the Financial Bootcamp series.
