Description
CAREER 2.0
A kick-start for knowledge workers in this new world, where you CV is not enough.
You have decided to explore the world of freelance and independent consulting. Now what?
let’s get something clear from the start. Being a freelancer or on your own is no walk in the park and is not an easier option. In many cases, you will work harder as a freelancer than you ever worked before with your other hats on.
On the upside, it will allow you to wave goodbye to the constraints of working for others, in specified physical offices, often far from home, and under sets of rules made for children, not adults.
To assist you in making this transition and managing this new phase, Career 2.0 is an online self-paced course that offers you practical tools and steps to start your own revolution, re-invention and rejuvenation in this time that will kick-start your new path to financial wellbeing and sound state of mind.
Let’s be proactive in taking the next steps and stop allowing our circumstances to dictate our future.
Career 2.0 is:
• A highly engaging online course consisting of 10 modules spanning 5 hours of content and roughly 2 hours of practical strategic work to be done by you!
• Worksheets and templates that are yours to download and use as the practical tool to jump-start your independence.
• Access to a 25 minute keynote on the state of the gig economy.
• The motivation and inspiration to start again.
About the consultant
Brent SPILKIN
Affectionately called “Spillly with 3 Ls” has spent the last 20 odd years discovering what makes him happy besides architecture, driving ambulances, pickling mango achaar, distribution and redeveloping the inner city.
He now gets his kicks from growing talented creative individuals in their businesses around the world by putting them through his Business Coaching methodology
With an innate ability to develop relationships with strangers and his passion to communicate his opinions, Spillly developed a persona that has allowed him to flourish in the public
speaking arena and also gave him the opportunity to host an online radio show, lecture business at reputable tertiary schools and work with international brands in the media space.
He is a loud-mouthed, tech-adopting, motorcycleriding business coach who won’t settle for mediocrity.
With a recent worldwide explosion in the independent professional and freelance market, Spillly has developed Career 2.0 an online course to assist freelancers in their transition and has written a book entitled WTF ‘What The Freelance – a Mini MBA for the Creative and Digital Freelancers’ that is now lectured through tertiary schools nationally to small business owners and iPros alike.
Why is this Important
We’re currently facing a large-scale population behavioural change.
Many are burnt out and our value set being challenged to change. The why ‘n way in which we work has been changing over the past few years but within 24 hours became outdated and in some instances, obsolete.
The trusted rules of employment and communication have been turned upside down forcing a
decentralised model of commerce with freelancers and independent professionals becoming more and more prolific.
To be a successful freelancer, you need discipline and maturity, the ability to wear many different hats and network professionally, and the willingness to hustle.
Without these it will be tough to understand and enjoy just how “free” freelancing can be.
Keep this in mind as you decide whether or not to get onto the course.
