Fine tuning your career to improve quality of life with Robert Baird [GWL153]

From professional musician to CEO of a 60 year old non-profit, Bob’s climbed the career ladder through a series of career pivots.Before becoming a CEO, he was a Navy Supply Corps Commander, technology consultant for PriceWaterhouseCoopers and IBM Business Services, a risk management consultant and the Chief Information Officer (CIO) for a major insurance company.  He’s successfully pivoted 12 times to obtain career success and is a career transition practitioner and expert. As a former “C” level executive, hiring manager, and on occasion job applicant, he knows what management’s looking for. He believes that finding a better, higher paying job requires more than just a great resume and LinkedIn profile.  You need a complete toolkit, which also includes networking, interviewing, and negotiation skills to name a few.
