Most people switch careers and take a pay cut. Richard Mak switches careers eight times and gets promoted every time in large organizations.
About this Event

8 industries. Zero experience. Upward every time.

Richard Mak didn't just change jobs; he redefined what’s possible. He successfully climb the corporate ladder of well-established organizations across eight unrelated industries:

  • Finance: Banking, M&A, & Investment Wealth Advisory
  • Consumer & Tech: FMCG & E-Learning Solutions
  • Education: Academia, Training & Development
  • Governance: The Public Sector

Richard mastered the art of the vertical career pivot, climbing the corporate ladder with every move, even when he had zero prior experience.


Overview

Now, Richard is pulling back the curtain on the distilled playbook that made it possible. Join us for an exclusive talk, “Why Being a ‘Career Chameleon’ Delivers Results: Lessons from EIGHT Career Reinventions on How to Get Jobs and Stay Employable in the AI Era.”


Key Takeaways

· The Shift: How to move from an "employee" mindset to a "BOSS" mindset.

· Conquer AI Anxiety: Learn to reinvent and restart your career without the panic.

· Universal Currency: Master the transferable skills that allow you to move faster and adapt smarter across any industry.

· The MORI Career Framework: A unique fusion of AI literacy and entrepreneurial strategy designed to keep you "unfireable" in the age of AI.
