Decoding Power and Presence: How to Navigate Organizations and Show Up in High-Stakes Rooms
Organizations aren’t run by org charts alone. Beneath every structure is an invisible operating system — the flow of influence, unspoken rules, and subtle cues that shape how work actually gets done. The ability to move effectively across different leaders and rooms isn’t about having the biggest title; it’s about understanding power and showing up with clarity and confidence. In this workshop with Abid C., we’ll explore how to read organizational dynamics, recognize the informal networks that matter, and build presence that resonates in high-stakes environments. You’ll walk away with practical tools to strengthen your influence and navigate complex situations with credibility.

Breaking into French Companies - Your Strategic Career Journey
Think L'Oréal, Chanel, Dior, Perrier, Cartier, and Airbus. These prestigious French brands represent just the tip of the iceberg in America's business landscape. Behind these household names are remarkable success stories like Sarah, who climbed from marketing coordinator to VP of North American Operations at a luxury goods company, Marcus who rose to General Manager at a major French aerospace supplier, and Elena who became Chief Strategy Officer at a leading French pharmaceutical subsidiary. What unites their journeys? They all grew through the ranks within French companies, embraced strategic assignments to France, and now enjoy sophisticated career paths with exceptional compensation packages that reward both performance and cultural adaptability. With French companies actively expanding their US operations and establishing new innovation centers across America, we're witnessing an unprecedented window of opportunity for ambitious professionals. Beyond the famous brands everyone recognizes, there are 5,400 French subsidiaries operating in the US, each offering significant professional opportunities for those who understand how to navigate their unique culture. French companies share one critical characteristic that sets them apart: they actively seek talented American personnel who can bridge cultures and they reward relationship-building with clear advancement paths and substantial compensation. Their approach combines French values of intellectual sophistication, hierarchical respect, and personalized leadership with appreciation for individual creativity and strategic thinking. What if this relationship-based, intellectually stimulating path to leadership is exactly your calling?

October Series - Creating a Career Plan (Session 2)
Jumping into the job search without a plan is like heading into battle without any armor or strategy. The most successful job seekers treat this step as building their strategy. It’s not just about knowing what you want, but also want you don't want. And how you’re going to avoid it. This means identifying what you’re looking for, what you’re not looking for, and assembling the tools and resources you’ll need along the way. The job search plan is the foundation for everything that follows. Without it, you’re likely to waste time on the wrong opportunities or get stuck in endless cycles of busywork. By taking the time to create a strategy and assemble your repertoire you give yourself the best chance of career success.

Strategic Networking & The Hidden Job Market
Do you want to have a choice in which job offer you respond to? If you are merely responding to job openings, you are wasting a lot of time. Would you rather spend 80% of your time getting more interviews or spend the same time “ticking off a box” by sending a large amount of applications to job openings? The answer is simple. If you identify the activities that yield the highest reward, you should pursue them.

October Series - Reaching your Network (Session 5)
Are you missing out on opportunities? Most job seekers don’t follow up after applications or interviews. Even fewer take the time to learn from rejection. The cost of not following up or seeking feedback is that you miss out on valuable information and opportunities to improve. Staying stuck in the same patterns leads to frustration and wasted effort. Building a follow-up system and actively seeking feedback helps you identify trends, such as why you were declined or rejected, and allows you to iterate and get better with each attempt. Getting feedback from your "job search system" is crucial for finding patterns and making meaningful change in your career.
