Dear Alumni,
You’re invited to an interactive evening in Zurich with the creators of a proven and effective model for taking control of mid-career decisions and helping individuals make a game-changing impact.

Build on your strengths to become a game changer; the journey towards personal and professional fulfilment, Zurich
April 11, 2018

Are you feeling the pressure of today’s fast changing environments, the rise of digital, its threats and opportunities, and the disappearance of the life-long job? Do you feel that you are being challenged to operate differently? Do you feel you need to be more agile in order to stay relevant and keep your career on track? Join us for an interactive workshop with The GC Index. During this session you will: 

• Discover how you make your game-changing impact;

• Learn how to better position yourself by applying core elements of corporate strategy to individual careers;

• Ensure you can find answers to common mid-career questions, and help make the decisions that result in professional fulfilment;

• Receive a complimentary personalised GC Index® profile * (200 EUR value) to take the first steps to build on their strengths and make a game-changing impact.

  Whichever direction one takes, be it employee, intrapreneur, or entrepreneur, the most proven way is to understand strengths and build on them.  By having a clear purpose, leveraging assets, developing, and deploying a personal brand, it is possible to be both grounded and open to a wider range of options and crafting a fulfilling future.
  *The GC Index® is an online assessment tool that measures how individuals, teams and organisations make a game-changing impact.

  This event is offered in conjunction with the Kellogg Swiss Alumni Association. Limited places: only 22 INSEAD participants may sign up! Please do not delay in registering.
