From “Who’s Who” to “Who’s He?” – Reinventing Yourself After Leaving Your Business
After 40 years in high-tech leadership, Mark Chamberlin found himself at an unexpected crossroads—let go at 61.5 and faced with a big question: What’s next? Instead of chasing another corporate role, he reinvented himself with impact, influence, and freedom.
In this episode, Mark shares:
- The biggest mistakes business leaders make after exiting
- Why your old title won’t open new doors—and what will
- How to leverage your network without looking for a job
- The surprising way sharing knowledge creates new opportunities
- How he redefined success beyond just money
Mark spends his time volunteering for groups that support start up founders, new entrepreneurs and "rising stars" - young adults beginning their searches for their first job. You may see him in the halls at Chapman University, teaching founders at Octane, or conducting mock interviews for the Boys and Girls Club YES Youth Employment Services.
Listen in for Mark’s insights and actionable strategies to help bridge the transition from "Who's who" to "who's he?"
