Conquering Career Myopia: Connectivity Skills for Career Management

People are so focused on their own universe of work, they often are unaware of what's happening in their own company, let alone in their industry.

Don't wait until you're in a job search to think about building networking contacts. You must learn to build connections throughout your career, as part of your ongoing job. Connectivity is the antidote to Career Myopia. It means developing relationships with people in and out of your industry - mutually beneficial relationships. While networking is about using names to get other names for short term benefit, connectivity is about developing respectful, reciprocal relationships over the long term.

WENDY ALFUS ROTHMAN is an organizational psychologist and entrepreneur with 18 years experience in Executive Assessment, Career Management, and Performance Coaching. She is a published author, speaker, broadcaster, and recognized expert in maximizing human behavior at work while helping companies select, develop, and retain their human capital.

Before You Climb the Ladder of Success, Make Sure It’s Leaning Against the Right Building

We refer to this insightful quote from "P.S. I Love You" (compiled by H. Jackson Brown, Jr.) because it is great advice for professionals facing the task of choosing a new form of work or creating change in their current work.  So, you may ask, "How do I figure out which professional option is the ‘right building’ for me?" 

To answer that question, join Wendy Alfus-Rothman, Executive Coach, for a workshop that will help you assess your work life so you can better understand the situations in which you perform your best and are happiest.  This workshop will help you begin to filter out the possibilities you come across, so you will be more likely to lean your "ladder of success" against the "right building" for you. 

Wendy Alfus-Rothman is the founder and President of The Wenroth Group, a human capital consultancy.  The company's services span the adult career lifecycle as people move into companies, as they perform inside companies, and as they transition to new companies.  Ms. Rothman's background as both an organizational psychologist and successful business entrepreneur make her especially qualified to coach and consult with senior business executives.

Rothman's business experience includes building and managing a $60 million dollar human resource organization in New York City that provided staffing, executive search, outplacement, performance coaching, and corporate training services to global clients in a variety of industries.  As President of The Wenroth Group, she has coached hundreds of executives and managers, and has authored several proprietary assessment instruments including The Full Engagement Inventory for The Corporate Athlete.

Rothman is a leading authority on Internet-based career development research, and has authored several books on the subject.  One of the original 5 O’Clock Club Coaches, she is the primary contributing author to three best-selling job search books and has just published “How to Find Jobs that Don’t Exist in Companies You’ve Never Heard Of”.

Rothman is frequently featured in the media on CNBC, Cox radio, and Sixfigurejobs.com.  She is Co-Chair of the Employment Roundtable, based in New York City; she is an elected member of The Committee of 200 for preeminent women business leaders; she is a Governing Board Member of The Women's Executive Circle; and a board member of F.E.G.S., the nation's largest health and social services organization.

Rothman has 2 Masters Degrees from Columbia University - one in Psychological Measurement, Evaluation, & Statistics and one in Organizational Psychology.  Her PhD is in Organizational Behavior.
