As working professionals, the bottom line is what we focus on day in and day out - crunching numbers, developing strategies, analyzing data. Often times our career choices revolve around our personal bottom lines (how much do I make to live a secure life, to make my mortgage, etc…). Unsure of what to do, we've made the safest career choice, confident that you can get back to what you love later. However, if you measure success by "more than money", what you think is your safest career choice may in fact be your riskiest. Please click here to RSVP.
