______________________________________Career Management & Transition Specialists Services & Program Review

Who we are … “I have no clue what I want to do next …” “I don’t know where to go or how to look for an opportunity …” “Who would hire me …” “Why would someone hire me – I don’t have …” “I know what I want to do – but how do I get there …” Common questions that we can answer for you. We are career management & transition specialists – committed to helping people identify their ideal career “next-act,” developing and executing a strategy & plan to pursue and land that next ideal opportunity. We provide the tools one needs, resources that are required, along with guidance & support that is backed by over 30 years of experience & expertise. Who We Are … I am very proud of our company and our legacy of experience in helping others mitigate career anxiety, achieve clarity, and achieve their ideal next act – their career goal. Since 1988, we have helped thousands move on to new and better jobs, careers, and even their own businesses. -Dan Moran, Founder & President

Our Experience – the difference … When it comes to helping others achieve success in their career or job, or moving on to a new opportunity, it takes experience to provide the proper tools & guidance. Experience on both sides is imperative – as an experienced career counselor and as a human resources executive who has driven organizational change, improved hiring processes, and improved employee culture. Our Founder, Dan Moran, contributes over thirty years of combined experience in successful career consulting and as a senior human resources executive. He knows what employers look for in people and understands their needs. He also knows how to help people understand their true “career calling” and then motivate, drive, and give them the tools to succeed. He is a recognized authority on career matters and is often quoted and interviewed regionally and nationally. We also employ a team of career professionals to work with specific clients with their unique situations. In addition, we have developed strategic partnerships with individuals and organizations who provide other services that may be required as one moves through this change process.

Discovery Utilizing proven-effective and valid career assessments supported by our discussions, we help you discover your ideal next job, career or endeavor – be it in the corporate world, in your own business, or simply doing good for others or pursuing that “dream” endeavor. This is where we “open your eyes” and work to remove fear and achieve clarity.

All assessments are conducted with complete confidentiality and discretion. This step generally takes 5 – 7 days, depending upon your schedule. With this understanding, many clients move to the next step … Step One
