Have you heard about the Great Resignation? Are you thinking about it as well? Have you thought about working for yourself?
Freelancing is not always the laid-back lifestyle that people describe. It’s challenging, in some ways, many times more so than being an employee.
What to look forward to:
- Have the tools and a head start on branding and marketing yourself effectively as a business-owner and solopreneur;
- Recognise and capitalise on your unique language and cultural angle to enhance your value proposition;
- Consult and gather feedbacks from a mentor with real-life experiences; and
- Have an opportunity to be part of the exclusive CreativesAtWork network and community.
19, 20, 26 March| 9am – 5.30pm
Registration is closed.
The programme will include hands-on activities and personal portfolio review to work on your brand and profile, with real-time feedback. Hear from speakers and mentors who have been-there-done-that, to find out how they make their business decisions to advance their independent careers. You’ll also get a chance to interact and be part of a growing community of successful freelancers, business-owners and solopreneurs. Each workshop brings opportunities for freelancers to present the issues they face, and to grow their network so that you, will become a Super Freelancer.
If you are looking at a career shift and is ready to move into new area of works, this is where CreativesAtWork and the mentors will come in to help you chart out a new career path for your freelancer journey.
