Possibly the most difficult part of finding opportunities that fit you, is locating organizations that are a perfect match for you. After all, there really isn’t a list out there of companies that are small family-style organizations that happen to allow highly flexible schedules and also have large amounts of resources and a leadership team hell-bent on integrity. 

Those organizations are out there, for sure, but the question is: “How do you find this unicorn organization?” 

But it’s even more complicated than that, because what is a perfect fit for one person, isn't necessarily right for you. 

In this episode, we break down 3 specific steps to locating organizations that fit, complete with examples of actual coaching sessions with our clients.
