Speaker: Bill Cusano.
At the end of 2007, Bill Cusano lost his job, and suddenly, his time was his
own. His approach was simple. For one hour day, he would do whatever he
wanted. He wouldn't worry about finding a job or answering emails, but
would be free to dream and enjoy the moment. He believed that the hour
would charge his battery so that he could clear his head, make better
decisions and begin the day with confidence.
It worked. Today, that hour has grown into a business and a vocation.
Topic: How to Turn Likes Into Cash- Making the most of your talents and
hobbies

About The Speaker:
Debra Wheatman, an experienced human capital management strategist will help you take the next step up your career ladder. Debra, who possesses both Certified Professional Resume Writer (CPRW) and Certified Professional Career Coach (CPCC) designations, is globally recognized as an expert in advanced career search techniques. With more than 18 years' corporate human resource experience guiding and directing global clients in determining career goals and identifying gratifying career choices Debra can package the amalgamation of your skills and accomplishments in a compelling and creative way to generate interest on behalf of decision makers at leading corporations.
Debra is a featured blogger on numerous sites where she covers career planning topics. She posts regularly on her own site at careersdonewrite.com/blog, and she has been featured on Fox Business News, WNYW with Brian Lehrer, and quoted in leading online, print, and trade publications, including Forbes.com, The Washington Post, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and CNBC.
The schedule for the dinner meeting on April 9th will be:
- 6:00 to 6:45 pm – Registration, "speed dating", and cash bar
- 6:45 to 7:15 pm – Personal Introductions
- 7:15 pm -- Dinner
- 8:00 pm -- Presentation by Debra Wheatman
- 9:30 pm approx -- Raffle – you must be present to win
The informal networking groups are so helpful in networking that we will do the "speed dating" on the 9th before we sit down for dinner and the general introductions. Briefly, these informal "dates" consist of up to 4 people and last for 5 to 10 minutes. At the end of the 10 minutes, the groups break up and new ones are formed with different participants. Suggested dialogues for your "speed dating" encounters will be provided at the registration desk in case you are at a loss for what to say during these conversations.
There will be an opportunity to circulate up to 40 copies of your resume, personal bio, leads, or other appropriate material in a handout for each participant from the dinner.
The cost will be $30 for everyone if forwarded by mail or other to John Sampson by COB Friday March 22nd at 2 Blackfoot Cir, Wayne NJ 07470. Checks should be made out to John Sampson who can be reached by phone at 973-248-3251 or via email at jcsspike@yahoo.com . Reservations can also be made by contacting Lizanne Fiorentino at lizanne@ignitetheflame.net but checks must be sent directly to John.
An initial list of attendees will be emailed to all the RSVPs, members of MNA, AWC, the ETP Network, TENG, The Breakfast Club of NJ, Monmouth Ntwkg, IT-Net, CIT and other interested parties over the weekend of April 7th. The RSVP list will facilitate networking at the April 9th event and can be used to communicate with attendees in advance or after the dinner meeting. For those attendees who are working, current work affiliation, email address, three previous companies you've worked for/consulted at, professional job interest or position availability must be included in your RSVP.
For those attendees who are in transition, three target companies should be included in your RSVP as well as the type of position you seek.
A "final" numbered RSVP list of attendees will be available along with the pre-published questions and an ID badge at the registration desk on the 9th. Your number on the final RSVP list should be part of your introduction: "I'm number x on the RSVP list …". All attendees should have their sharp, crisp, 30 second elevator speech at the ready. Too many "ahs, dees and doeses" will be cut off unceremoniously. Remember, you and your introduction will be between the rest of the attendees and dinner!
A final RSVP list of the actual attendees will be emailed to everyone who participated by April 13th.
The cost of the dinner meeting will be $45 after COB on Mar 22nd and before April 9th.
We will accept a LIMITED number of walk-ins on the 9th. Anyone who attends on the 9th and whose check has not been received by COB on the April 8th will be charged $60 WITHOUT EXCEPTION. There will be NO refunds and no shows WILL be billed.
Again, bring 40 copies of your bio/resume, leads, or materials you wish to be included in the handout the evening of April 9th.
Directions to the Holiday Inn at One Rt 46 Westbound in Totowa can be found at www.holiday-inn.com/totowanj. Traffic congestion on Rt 46 at rush hour is always substantial, so allow an extra half hour to get to the Holiday Inn.
Dues are due for MNA Members.
If you would like to help out at the meeting on the 9th volunteer to be a "Meeting Marshall". Call John Sampson at 973-248-3251 for details. We can use your help!!!
Please join us for what always is a well attended evening of lively discussion, great networking opportunities, and a chance to just catch up.
