By: NETSHARE Just as technology was driving innovation two decades ago, cleaner/greener practices, services, and products are driving today’s innovation and economy. The challenge facing professionals is how to transition to become part of the “green rush.” In this 90-minute teleseminar, Celia will explain ways to highlight your environmental expertise, and she will demonstrate to attendees that you may be greener than you think. Topics of discussion will include: • What is meant by sustainability, clean technology, green economy, and clean energy? • How do you take your professional experience and repackage it to make yourself a viable candidate for these new jobs? • What skills should do you need to highlight? Do you need a green MBA? • Are there more opportunities in the private or public sector? • Is the interviewing process different for green jobs? • How do you follow the green money trail? • How do you identify and avoid “green-washing” “The green sector is showing the greatest career growth in today’s economy and now is the right time to determine if you have what it takes to go green,” said Katherine Simmons, CEO of NETSHARE and host of the Experts Connection teleseminars. “Whether you are looking at career opportunities in the public or the private sector, green business requires a solid understanding of best business practices.
