We do not make jokes, we simply watch the LA Times, the Orange County Register and CID/HOA board of directors and report the facts!
Counseling for Laid off Journalists Available
Posted by CotoBlogzz | 12/19/2008 2:30 PM
The
National Association of Hispanic Journalists
is setting up small group sessions for journalists
suddenly out of a newsroom or facing the uncertainty
of these changing times to help them define where
they are professionally and what they want to
do next.
In
four 60-to-90 minute joint coaching sessions by phone,
the participants will address the emotional and
practical toll of suddenly being a journalist with no
job, analyze who they are and where they want to go,
define their individual skill sets that can help them
stay in the industry or translate their skills to a
new career, and learn how to use sourcing, networking
and other tools to create the career they want.
Groups
will be led by veteran journalists and certified
career coaches and they are limited to six or eight
people to ensure more individual participation in a
safe, confidential environment. This is not for people
who seem well on their way to making a transition to
another aspect of journalism or to another career.
It’s for people still searching for answers or who
don’t have a plan and need to figure out how to
shape one.
Participants
in each group will attend the four sessions together
with the same coach. These sessions beginning in
January are free of charge for those
selected to participate. This service is open
to all, but priority will be given to current
NAHJ
To apply, write two or three paragraphs on your situation and
what kind of support you are looking for and send it
along with a resume to Iván Román at iroman@nahj.org.
