Exploring Career Expansions/Transitions: Is it time to make a change?

Session details:

People in creative fields are naturally resourceful, adaptable, and unafraid to explore the unknown. In the entertainment industry, quick pivots and flexibility are part of the job. But what do you do when the work itself no longer supports your physical, mental, or financial well-being? In this session, longtime venue manager and entertainment career coach Mark Heiser explores why making a career shift — within or beyond the industry — can be a healthy, even necessary, next step. He’ll share practical strategies for navigating change, reframing your skills, and identifying new opportunities when your current path no longer aligns with your needs. You’ll also get a first look at the latest Behind the Scenes initiative: new online tools and resources designed to support your career transition or expansion, wherever your next chapter leads.
