Why Choose a Major? Choose a Life!

How DID you choose your major? Seemed like a good idea? Dad told you to? "Less worse" than the alternatives? Too many students get through college and graduate into a career or industry they really don't understand, or worse yet, don't like. What's more, globalization and a decidedly uncertain landscape for our nation's economic future will require a different approach than "get a good education, get a good job, work hard, and retire comfortably." Mark works with Career Services, Faculty and many on campus student organizations, providing a variety of programs, tools and resources to teach higher and continuing education students how to not only prosper financially, but how to better enjoy life and maybe even change the world. Includes:

• Why college is important but your major isn't
• Your best options to generate income, no matter what you do in school
• How to prepare yourself for an uncertain world economy ... changing before your eyes
• The most likely roadmap to success, whether you become an employee or employer,  leader or follower, movie star or philanthropist
• Your Inner Expert  and how to start applying it to getting a job, keeping a job, starting a business or being a successful investor
• The difference innovation and entrepreneurship will make in your life and your bank account
• Why wealth is not all about money and how to apply your natural talents and interests to a  meaningful and fulfilling life

  Format - Guest Lecturer, Keynotes, Commencement Addresses,  2 to 4 hour workshops (stand alone or as a series).  Detailed course outlines available on request.
