FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Career Insurance Makes Unemployment Insurance Look Like Child's Play

The #1 fear at work isn't loss of a job.  The root cause of daily anxiety attacks at work is abrupt loss of all income associated with a job.  As they walk each person being laid off to the front door, managers put their arm around people telling them "you are a valued employee".  That's a frightening scenario still being played out today.  Implementing a career insurance plan, which includes developing alternate sources of income, is crucial to career management survival.

New York, NY February 20, 2011 8:00AM EST—Tune into to YOUR CAREER IS CALLING, broadcast on www.1077TheBronc.com from Rider University.   Chief Savvy Intrapreneur Carl E. Reid, CSI, presents “Alternate Sources of Income and Why You Need Them” 

YOUR CAREER IS CALLING radio show co-hosted by Rod Colon, author of Win the Race for 21st Century Jobs and Frank Kovacs, founder of TheBreakfastClubNJ.com will be discussing with guest speaker Carl E. Reid, CSI why the best time to develop part time supplemental income is Now. 

When I left my corporate job, some people in my family could not believe it – states Carl E. Reid, Business Career Coach, Chief Savvy Intrapreneur at SAVVY INTRAPRENEUR and Chief Operations Officer at Empowering Today's Professionals.  “What about job security, they asked?”…well, what about it? Who says my corporate job would be there long term? If my “day job” were to disappear, what would happen? Not much, really. I would lose a source of income, but I have other sources of income to sustain me and my family”.

Mr. Reid further explains, "This is crucial to survival, as part of a career back up plan. It makes all the difference between making a living and LIVING LIFE".  "With current economic conditions students, recent grads, home makers and career professionals need creative strategies for developing alternate sources of income. This definitely provides career insurance, as a part of any career management backup plan. The result can pay continuous dividends, while providing peace of mind for families. This is way better than temporary unemployment insurance."

INTERACTIVE CAREER TALK-SHOW DEBUT SEPTEMBER 19

3:31 PM / Posted by Unknown / comments (0)

Starting September 19 and every Sunday at 8:00AM EST Listen LIVE on your computer media player to radio show: Your Career is Calling: Your Weekly Appointment for Career Choices, Decisions and Success!!  Listeners can ask career management and job search questions by calling the studio at 877-900-1077. 

Or you can also download the Career Management Swiss Army Knife.  The included radio player is pre-programmed to allow quick and easy access to this radio show, hosted by Empowering Today's Professionals' CEO and author of Win the Race for 21st Centiry Jobs, Rod Colon and founder of TheBreakfastClubNJ, Frank Kovacs.
---------------------------------

INTERACTIVE TALK-SHOW TO DEBUT ON 107.7 THE BRONC ON SEPTEMBER 19

Not so long ago, job-seekers and other career-minded professionals used to pore over the Sunday classifieds in search of that next position, the one that might take them to the next level of business.

Starting September 19, career-climbers can simply tune into 107.7 The Bronc, the on-campus radio station at Rider University, on Sunday mornings at 8 a.m. for a new and interactive call-in program entitled Your Career is Calling: Your Weekly Appointment for Career Choices, Decisions and Success. The one-hour show, hosted by Frank Kovacs ’84 and Rod Colon, will debut this weekend around the topic of “Building, Tracking and Maintaining Your Network.” It’s a subject particularly close to the heart of Kovacs, a 1984 Rider graduate who is the founder and CEO of The Breakfast Club NJ, a 3,000-member networking group established to promote career growth, special networking and help people in career transition.

“Radio was a logical next step for us,” explained Kovacs, who founded Breakfast Club NJ in the wake of the September 11 attacks to help restore what he calls “a semblance of order” to the lives of myriad professionals who, during that time of economic and financial uncertainty, suddenly found themselves on the job market after years of relative security.

“So many people were out of tune with the current ways of the market,” said Kovacs, who co-hosts the show with Colon , CEO of The ETP (Empowering Today’s Professionals) Network. “They hadn’t looked for a new job in 20 years, and suddenly had to represent themselves again.”

For years, Kovacs had been a senior manager at a major New Jersey Bank, and had seen corporate culture shape the role of people in his role – and not always for the better.

“In the earlier part of my career, a huge part of managing was the career management of the people who reported to them,” he explained. “In many cases, the focus on that had lessened a great deal, but I had always prided myself on developing people along the way.”

Fueled by this passion for steering careers in the right direction, Kovacs began his small networking club, meeting once a month in accessible, central locations. It has since grown by leaps and bounds, incorporating social media like Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter to expand his base of professional contacts.

“Job-hunting is a game of inches,” said Kovacs, who estimates that 85 percent of jobs are obtained as the result of networking. “If we can give them that little edge, we remain vital.”

Your Career is Calling is the next step in Kovacs’s commitment to area networking, and he calls his partnership with Rider and 107.7 The Bronc a key opportunity to expand his reach. “I think we’ll introduce ourselves to a whole new audience, in addition to the people who we’re already in touch with through The Breakfast Club NJ,” he said. Your Career is Calling can be heard on the FM dial, as well as online at http://www.rider.edu, either live on Sunday mornings or anytime via podcast.

Other topics to follow this season include “Run Your Career as a Business,” “The Hidden Job Market,” and How to Start a Conversation.” Kovacs and Colon will welcome guests in studio and take callers to discuss the day’s topic, as well as other career, employment and networking questions. Listeners can reach the studio at 877-900-1077.

Kovacs is eager to launch the show, and hopes it has the same success as The Breakfast Club NJ.  “It’s a good feeling when we see our people helping each other,” he said.

Social Networking and Collectible Cars Mingle

7:15 AM / Posted by Unknown / comments (0)

As we know the world is an event, our ETP Network partner organization, Westchester New Rochelle Networking Group, is hosting a business networking social June 17, 2008 at New York City's #1 collectible car dealership TNT Classic Cars. This is a unique venue where people can travel back to yesteryear viewing vintage cars from the 30's, 40's, 50's and 60's, while connecting with like minded career professionals and business owners. Ahhh . . . they don't build cars like that any more.

Although this opportunity to network may be a hike from your neck of the woods, you can still network long distance. Maybe you have family, friends or associates in the New York, New Jersey or Connecticut area. [Re]Connect with them by letting them know about this event. Use the email or phone call about this networking event as an excuse to catch up with someone you haven't spoken to in a while. It doesn't matter, if they go to the event or not. You're just letting someone know you were thinking about them and you care about their success. This simple gesture is a networking home run!!
