This hands-on, intensive workshop will show physicians contemplating a career change how to locate and land lucrative non-clinical positions. The focus is on finding and landing jobs paying as much or more than clinical medicine. Each registrant will be given the opportunity to complete a Birkman Preview� which will show them the non-clinical careers that are best for them. The course will conclude with each physician drafting a customized action plan of how they will find and land their first non-clinical job.

In this segment, the faculty will begin by utilizing a demonstration with a volunteer attendee to show the absolute importance of being able to sell yourself. Attendees will then learn specific techniques (with examples) on how to persuasively and confidently articulate how their skills, education, and experience as medical doctors should be characterized as talents that any employer would seek. Attendees will be provided with an extensive set of "talking points" that they can use to help articulate their transferable skills and why an employer should hire them. Questions and Answers

The faculty will present and open for discussion numerous concise case studies of physicians who have successfully made the switch to a high paying non-clinical career. Included in each case study is the personal and professional background of the physician, what they were looking for, how they found it, and most importantly, the valuable lessons which should be learned from the examples. Questions and Answers

Faculty will review your Birkman Preview� which is the gold standard diagnostic test (blood test, X-Ray, CT Scan, MRI) for physicians contemplating a career change. Attendees will learn to interpret their report, and they will see a chart showing how MDs compare to business and physician executives. Faculty will lead a group discussion. The results of this diagnostic assessment alone will justify your investment in this workshop. Questions and Answers
