Hello Luann and all,
Right now, we do not have a monthly schedule of meetings. But stay tuned! Our planning and renewal process continues.

In the meantime, if you need support, let us know. We are here to help.
Terry

Save The Date 
COMBINED DINNER MEETING
Tuesday, February 28th, 2012 
On Tuesday evening, February 28th, there will be a combined dinner meeting for current members, alumni, and guests of Association of Women in Computing (AWC), IT-Networking, MIS Network Associates (MNA), Monmouth Networking, The Breakfast Club NJ (TBCNJ), ETP Network, and Careers in Transition (CIT) at the Holiday Inn, Totowa, NJ.  
The dinner meeting will include a presentation by Rod Colon: Managing Your Career As A Business.
Rod Colon is a published author. His first book, Win the Race for 21st Century Jobs, discusses the need for networking and human relationships as a major part of any career management strategy.  You can find his career tips and techniques on his blog – RodColon.com.  Rod also co-hosts a new and interactive weekly call-in radio show entitled Your Career is Calling: Your Weekly Appointment for Career Choices, Decisions and Success from Rider University's 107.7 FM and online at 1077TheBronc.com.
Rod is a graduate of Georgian Court University and a board member of the Georgian Court University Alumni Association.  He has been featured on ABC-TV "Tiempo" with Joe Torres, NEWS12 New Jersey "It's Your Money" with Eric Landskroner, BRONXNET "Open" with Dr. Bob Lee, Latin TRENDS, Newark Examiner, Princeton Review, and has received numerous awards and citations in both print and online media.  His innovations have attracted a growing audience of business professionals who recognize and appreciate his gift for leadership, his command of both traditional and emerging business trends, and his unfailing desire to mentor, coach, train, and advise in all matters related to career management and personal growth.
The schedule for the dinner meeting on February 28th will be:
            -          6:00 pm – Registration, cash bar, and "speed dating"
            -          6:45 to 7:00 -- Individual introductions with RSVP list reference – see below
-          7:00 pm -- Dinner
-          8:00 pm – Rod Colon's presentation with appropriate Q & A
Following our usual meeting format, after you have registered and added your resume, etc. to the handout piles, everyone will participate in a series of informal networking groups i.e. "speed dating", before we sit down for dinner and the general introductions.  Briefly, these informal groups last for approximately 10 minutes.  At the end of the 10 minutes, the groups disperse, and new ones are formed with different participants.  Suggested dialogues for the groupings will be provided at the registration desk.
 There will be an opportunity to circulate up to 50 copies of your resume, personal bio, leads, or other appropriate material in a handout from the dinner.
The cost will be $30 for everyone if forwarded by mail or other to John Sampson by COB on February 17th at 2 Blackfoot Cir, Wayne NJ 07470.  Checks should be made out to John. He can be reached at 973-248-3251. John's email is jcsspike@yahoo.com. Reservations can also be made through Lizanne Fiorentino at adminedg@optonline.net.
An RSVP list of attendees will be created and used to facilitate your networking activity. Current or last work affiliation, email address, and membership organization should be included in your RSVP. If you are in transition, please include the names of three target companies and the kind of position(s) you are seeking. If you are currently employed, you should provide the name of your last three employers. The preliminary RSVP will be distributed to the recipients of the initial mailing of this announcement and to all those on the list the week end before the dinner meeting for editing and informational purposes.  A "final" numbered RSVP list will be available at the registration desk on the 28th and can be used as part of your general introduction …"I'm # x on the RSVP list". Your number will also appear on your name badge which will be available at the registration desk on the 28th.
Since there will be walk-ins on the 28th, the final RSVP list will be emailed to the attendees as quickly as possible after February 28th.
The cost of the dinner meeting will be $45 after COB on Feb 17th and before February 28th.  We will accept a LIMITED number of walk-ins on February 28th.  Their cost will be $60 without exception as well as for RSVP's whose checks have not been received by COB on February 27th. There will be NO refunds and no shows WILL be billed.
Again, attendees should bring 50 copies of their bio/resume, leads or materials they wish to be included in the handout for the evening of  February 28th.
If you would like to help out at the meeting on the 28th, volunteer to be a "Meeting Marshall".  Call John Sampson at 973-248-3251 for details. We can use your help!!!
Directions to the Holiday Inn at One Rt. 46 Westbound in Totowa Park can be found at www.holiday-inn.com/totowanj    Traffic congestion at rush hour is substantial on Rt 46, so you should allow an extra half hour  to get to the Holiday Inn on the 28th.
Please join us for an evening of improving your attempts to build your personal network, great networking opportunities, and/or a chance to just catch up.

my new book, To Your Success!

Terry Seamon here, moderator of this Yahoo Group and team member of the St Matthias Employment Ministry in Somerset.

My new book, called "To Your Success!" has just been published!

https://www.createspace.com/3785800

It is a motivational guidebook for anyone who is "in transition" seeking their next job or searching for more meaningful work.

As the great writing coach William Zinsser once said, "Write what you know." As a veteran of the job search, being "in transition" is something that I know quite well.

The topics covered include:
- identifying your strengths
- clarifying your mission
- writing your accomplishments
- setting goals
- telling your story
- building your resilience
- strengthening your confidence
- learning to sell yourself
- overcoming obstacles
- managing your time
- making change happen
- learning from failure
- achieving success

If you are out of work, or know someone who is searching, then consider this guide. Having been there myself, and having helped many job hunters these past several years, I know how difficult it is.

But there is a process. And it does work.

Feel free to share with your networks, especially those in transition.

Thanks

Terry
