FountainBlue

FountainBlue's Transitions meetings provide networking, education and peer-to-peer support group is designed for senior executives in career transition as well as those seeking networking and educational opportunities with fellow senior professionals. Our monthly programs feature interactive discussions with an industry expert, on relevant business, technology and leadership issues facing the high-tech, clean-tech and life-science executive decision-makers in attendance. We also take pride in drawing on the collective experience of the group and making the discussion interactive and relevant for everyone.

In addition, our monthly programs feature facilitated discussions about networking for senior executives, providing practical tools and advice to address the current, real life networking challenges faced by the senior executives in attendance. FountainBlue is pleased to partner with the leading executive transition organizations in Silicon Valley in support of our monthly program.

The word on the street is that the economy's picking up. People who have been looking for a long time find themselves in multiple interviews, with multiple offers. People who have been holding out until the economy picks up are proactively getting recruited by firms desperate for new leaders to manage a company's growth, customers, and markets.

We hope that the executives in FountainBlue's communities are benefiting from this rising tide and look forward to hosting a conversation reviewing the many elements of an executive compensation package, from salary to stock options to benefits. We hope that the conversation will assist you from both ends of the negotiating table, as a prospective employer or a prospective an employee.

Every month, following attendee introductions for our Transitions meeting, Linda Holroyd will facilitate a discussion about Networking for Executives. This month's topic will be on 'Trimming and Pruning Your Network'.
