Business skills every Smart Young Business Woman needs for the transition from college to career
Are the young women on your campus ready to compete in today’s tough job climate? They may have the “smarts,” but are they up for the emotional and professional challenges that they’ll face as they transition from academia to the work world?
If you’ve been searching for a way to make your students more hirable and increase your job placement rate, Smart Young Business Woman Training Camp is a crucial part of giving your female students a running start in their careers.
Smart Young Business Woman Training Camp shortens that first-job learning curve by focusing on hard-to-define wisdom, insight and soft skills that will make students more competitive—and more successful once they start their new positions.
Smart Young Business Woman Training Camp focuses on the building blocks of better business leadership that can lead to a more successful transition from school into the business world. This training course is specially designed to give young women a fresh perspective on professionalism in the workplace—and what it takes to be taken seriously at the office.
Led by down-to-earth speaker and communication guru Lauren Methena, Smart Young Business Woman Training Camp delves into the type of knowledge and insight we all wish we knew back when we were first getting started:
- How Business Really Works—What are the unspoken rules of business, and how can you play the game better?
- Business Etiquette—How do you deal with people and technology?
- Confidence and Assertiveness—From self-awareness to standing up for yourself in uncomfortable or unethical situations
- Negotiation—How to get what you really want in business: promotions, better salary, position and more
- Office Politics and the Art of Relationship Building—Survivor had it right; how can you forge alliances and get ahead faster
- Don’t Take it Personally—There’s valuable information in the feedback people give you (good and bad), so how will you use it to your advantage?
- Dealing with “The Old Ones”—As low woman on the totem pole, how do you give and get respect in the office?
These days, it’s not uncommon to hear of hundreds of people competing for only a handful of available jobs. How will you help your students find better jobs after they graduate and increase your job placement rate? Smart Young Business Woman Training Camp teaches your students the interpersonal skills that will help them:
- Make better decisions
- Select the right kinds of jobs that better suit their needs and talents
- Present themselves better during interviews
- Be more competitive, more sought-after and more hirable to prospective employers
- Negotiate better
- Be more successful once they’ve landed their first position
All the skills that can help your students get jobs after school—which will make you look good and boost your school’s job placement rate!
Young women have a unique set of concerns and questions as they prepare to start their careers. They deserve a space of their own where they can feel free and comfortable to express themselves and voice their concerns.
This intense, interactive 1-day course does just that—offers a safe environment where young women can focus on how to build the professional, personal and emotional skills that will help them be more successful in business, along with the confidence to back up their skills and talents.
Are you ready to give the young women in your school a leg up on the competition? Are your students ready to feel more confident their first day on the job, be it an internship or their first job out of school?
