SPEAKING
LECTURES TO LIVELIHOOD
My most eye-opening revelations about career advancement came during my time in talent acquisition. So, I said to myself, "Self, why don't you share what you've learned with college students?"
Lectures to Livelihood shows students how to prepare for career opportunities by learning:
-
What employers look for,
-
The anatomy of a winning college resume, and
-
How to articulate their personal brands in a compelling way.
THE BLACK GREEK SUCCESS PROGRAM
Being a fraternity man did a lot to help me develop my personal brand. The Black Greek Success Program teaches college members of African American fraternities and sororities to lead effectively on campus through three principles:
-
Make the most of the college experience,
-
The Gumbo Theory: Improve chapter chemistry, and
-
Lead others by leading yourself.
For this talk, I am elated to have teamed up with Greek University! Learn more at greekuniversity.org/eddie.
KEYNOTE ADDRESSES, MOTIVATIONAL TALKS, WORKSHOPS, AND SEMINARS
Having been in the workforce for more than 30 years, I have enjoyed careers in mass media, talent acquisition, and marketing and communications. I have had the privilege of serving as a nonprofit board member, as a team leader, and as an organizational administrator.
I'd love to share with your employees, students, or association members what I've learned about branding, leadership, and/or team work!
