Why You Need Your Own Career Advisory Board, with Nii Ato Bentsi-Enchill

Networking is a great way to get input as you progress in your career, but networking alone can’t help you make specific decisions. The best way to get personalized advice, says Find Your Dream Job guest Nii Ato Bentsi-Enchill, is by surrounding yourself with people who are invested in your life. These relationships can be formal or informal, and you can form them in your company and outside it. Nii Ato suggests being direct when asking someone to serve on your advisory board. And remember, no one goes it alone so ask for the help you need.  About Our Guest: Nii Ato Bentsi-Enchill (https://www.linkedin.com/in/niiato/) is a holistic career coach for professionals of color and allies.  Resources in This Episode: If you’re ready to take your career to the next level, find out how Nii Ato can help you by visiting his website at www.avenircareers.com/.
