Greetings!
We are now in the
midst of ASIS 2017, but there is still much news being generated by our ASIS
National Capital Chapter.
The NCC is happy to
report it will host a Young Professionals Happy Hour and Networking event on
October 11th in Arlington, VA. More
details and a link to the event details are provided below.
We are also
approaching our Annual Golf Outing to be held Tuesday October 24th. Trophies will be awarded for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place finish, along with longest drive and closest to pin
competitions. This event, which includes a luncheon, will be held at the Twin
Lakes Golf Course – see below for further details.
Proceeds from the Golf Tournament will benefit the ASIS National Capital Chapter Security Education Fund
and the ASIS International Foundation. For more information on the ASIS Int'l
Foundation, please see the Foundation facts in the left column of this
newsletter.
We all recognize
that strong networking is a vital key to business development, and crucial to
success. According to many reports, at least 80% of jobs are found through
networking.
Networking, however,
is not how many business cards you collect, but listening and sharing to create
real connections. If you are genuine, and willing to give without expecting a return, you
will build friendships, a resource which takes communication and time. This is
what we do at ASIS NCC events - build relationships that go beyond the surface.
To those of you now attending ASIS 2017, enjoy the many benefits of ASIS 2017 and I hope to meet with you soon!

September Meeting Recap -
Career Transitioning with Kathy Lavinder
Left, NCC Chair John Gallagher thanking Kathy Lavinder, Right, Kathy Lavinder presenting at September Chapter Meeting
Ditch the resumé
template. Be creative. Most importantly...be a good listener.
Kathy Lavinder,
Founder and Executive Director of SI Placements offered these and many other
recommendations during her presentation at the September National Capital
Chapter meeting held in Washington DC.
Kathy engaged the
audience of 31 members and guests with insights learned during her 17 plus
years of experience recruiting and placing investigators and security managers
in valuable employment positions.
Networking was
brought forward as a critical job search strategy, and a skill our members
benefit from at each ASIS NCC event. The attendees also listened attentively
as Kathy explained
resumé preparation guidelines and advice for achieving success during the
telephone and in-person interviews. The audience was provided so much
constructive information they were ready to hit the ground running and
confidently compete for that new position!
And don't forget to
email a note of your appreciation after meeting with your interviewer. Tell
them you appreciate their time - it is the polite thing to do!
If you would like
more career tips and help, the ASIS 2017 Career Center will be a great resource
with recruiters on hand, free head shots, and more.
Kathy Lavinder will
also be speaking in the Career Center during ASIS 2017 on Tuesday, September
26th,
where you can get
FREE career coaching or a resume
review!
