| About Rod Colon Consulting |
Hi Rod,
Thank you for coming to speak with us at the Professional Service Group of Mercer County! It was a pleasure to meet you and the group absolutely loved your presentation. We'd also like to extend our thanks to Jackie Alix for working with us so extensively to organize this successful event.
Feedback was excellent across the board with the highest ratings for the value of the presentation, clear presentation skills, and delivery. Comments from the group included extra appreciation for your practical and direct approach, sincerity and new perspective in approaching our job search as a business owner. Others also highlighted their better understanding of how to use LinkedIn contacts, with one member saying this was the kick in the pants that they needed! -Irene Tan, Executive Co-Chair, Professional Service Group of Mercer County
"It is not often that one gets to witness greatness in any field, but the 90 minutes Rod Colon spent with our group teaching us the 7 essential steps to networking were 90 minutes of greatness. I personally learned more about networking from Rod in those 90 minutes than I have in more than 30 years of my own trial and error. Rod's mini-seminar was direct, blunt, brilliantly organized and passionately delivered. It was also insightful, invigorating and intensely motivational. There isn't a businessperson alive who would not benefit from his incisive teachings." -Richard Pawlak, PSG) of Mercer County, Public Relations Committee Chair
"I had the great pleasure of meeting Mr. Colon a few months ago at the HISPA (Hispanics Inspiring Students’ Performance and Achievement) 2011 Youth Conference which took place in Princeton University. Mr. Colón’s charisma and energetic personality quickly and inevitably filled the room. At the end of the Conference, when I got to shake Mr. Colon’s hand and speak with him, his message to me was clear: “Own your career! You can do it!” I could not help to feel inspired by our conversation; soon after, I obtained a copy of his book, “Win the Race for 21st Century Jobs.” -Jose Medina, Mechanical Engineer
"If job hunting is a basketball game and Rod is you coach, he would definitely be teaching you how to utilize the full court press. He starts with career managing, teaches you the art of networking, drills you on interviewing skills and adds the important step of follow up. He personally demonstrates the high energy relentless work ethic that you need to succeed and at the same time never hesitates to stop and work with you on an individual basis to get you the help you need. Simply said, if you need a job, join Rod’s team!" -Mark Altenburger, VP, Business Development at Healthcare Resources Online
Rod,
Thank you very much. Your presentation last night was truly inspiring. I wish I knew you many years ago. I am already trying to reach out to as many people as possible verbally. You reminded me of a motivational speaker, Ric Elias, who made a riveting 5 minute speech of his experience of being in a plane plummeting to earth over the Hudson River that he survived due to the brilliant landing by pilot Sully Sullenberger last year after the plane hit a flock of birds. I hope to be working in the near term. -Robert Harris, Information Technology and Services Professional
"Rod assisted me through the Empowering Today's Professionals while I was in between positions. Through ongoing encouragement and support through webinars, in person meetings and telephone support through the ETP 'solution center,' I eventually landed a new position.
