Free Webinar - Practical Management or Practical Magic - The Road to Success is Not a Straight Line Please join the LLAMA Practical and Applied Management Committee on Wednesday, October 30th @ 1pm Eastern Time/12pm Central Time for our latest event. We address the importance of flexibility and agility- being ready to deal with unexpected changes, failures, and opportunities. Work life balance is a key part of we define what a successful career looks like. Our definition of success is not achieving the highest paid job or most prestigious job but finding a job you love while also being able to have a full life. We also discuss how to renew /re-energize ourselves.
