Job Network To Discuss Empowerment In Orange

Building confidence will be the focus of guest speaker Kimberly Saltus at the September meeting of the Housatonic River Job Network on Thursday, Sept. 5 at the Case Memorial Library in Orange.

Saltus is the founder and managing director of Breathe, a brand that ensures everyone is engaged from the top down and the bottom up. Her talk is titled “Stop the Anxiety – Create a Confident Job Search.”

Businesses can’t have satisfied customers and increase top line performance without engaged employees.

Have you ever been told you don’t have enough experience when the reality is you have a 20 or 30-year track record of doing great work? Or repeatedly being told you’re overqualified? What about that deep, dark hole your resume lands in, never to be heard from again?

All of these situations can lead to a depressing mindset. It keeps job seekers feeling that they are not good enough. As a result, this often leaves them anxious and perplexed.

A basic goal during the job search is to find an answer to the daily anxiety that can keep you worried, confused and stressed out. In a world that’s constantly trying to make you something else, Saltus will help you discover your greatest accomplishment is simply to be yourself.

Saltus describes herself as a visionary change agent and transformational leader whose brand has one focus: confident empowerment
