I’m excited to present “Coach Yourself to Career Success” at the 2011 National Federation of Press Women Conference Sept. 10 at Harrah’s Casino in Council Bluffs, Iowa. The program blurb:

In this highly interactive session, professional coach John Fulwider will teach you five steps to reach your Big Hairy Audacious Goal, either with your current employer or after a career transition. With directions and templates from John, you and a neighbor will coach each other on declaring your Big Hairy Audacious Goal; writing a winning game plan; assembling a top-notch personal board of advisers; creating time for the future; and balancing work and life. You’ll leave the session with a list of specific, measurable, and achievable objectives you can start working on immediately—maybe even at this conference.

I’m in some outstanding company, including:

My sincere thanks to Stephanie Geery-Zink for the opportunity.
