Cofounder and program director, Shaun Johnson, said: “according to a recent Gallup Poll, 70 percent of Americans report feeling unfulfilled in their professional lives — I think that’s tragic. We created this one-day workshop to help people avoid the fate of wasting one-third of their life unhappy.” These workshops – launching in New York, Chicago and Boston – keeps the attendees’ needs in mind. With the focus on individual strengths and incorporating these strengths to in-demand skills for the various industries attendees are breaking into, the workshop will also feature personalized career mentorship and valuable company connections for future projects. So what does the Startup Institute team believe the GET UNSTUCK workshops will achieve? For vice president of marketing, Dana Cordova, she says: Johnson also had a few words on the future of the workshops: Workshops like Startup Institute‘s GET UNSTUCK have a strong influence on professionals who are just starting out and trying to figure out their own footing in this complicated landscape. Here’s to the hope that more initiatives like it will soon follow suit.
