About Exploring Your Potential™

Exploring Your Potential is a career readiness program that inspires young adults to take control of their future today by crafting a life and career that’s personally customized to them. This groundbreaking program is organized into four courses in which students identify their talents, passions, and goals; create a value proposition that reflects who they are; learn how to market themselves; and put their career plan into action. Students are motivated to think outside the box and create their own definition of success.

Exploring your Potential helps academic institutions augment the career-preparedness resources they currently offer. Usage of Exploring your Potential at numerous universities has demonstrated a highly significant improvement in students’ career readiness.

Exploring your Potential™ is divided into four courses:

Course 1: Discovering Your Options

Get a clear sense of who you are, what you want to achieve, what skills and experience you have to leverage, and what will truly make you happy. Then you can make it happen.

Course 2: Sculpting Your Value Proposition

You can have all the potential and talent in the world, but packaging what you have to offer strategically maximizes your opportunities. Give yourself the best shot.

Course 3: Marketing Yourself

We’re all in sales. We all have to sell ourselves every day, especially when we’re looking for internships, jobs, or consulting projects, or even launching a startup.

Course 4: Activating Your Plan

Elevating your strategy will make you aim higher, expect more from yourself, and achieve more in return. Take your big new plans and put them into action. Great results await!

Welcome to a whole new path to figuring out what you want to do for work, how to do what you love, and what it takes to achieve success—by your own definition.
