About ExecuNet

Dave Opton Founder & CEO | ExecuNet I started ExecuNet in 1988 because the company I was working for was sold, and for the first time I found myself, at age 48, looking for a job when I didn't have one. As a senior executive in the marketplace trying to get the attention of recruiters and hiring managers, the feeling was "me against them". I was not truly prepared for the search, and the results made me, well, very frustrated. Okay, very angry. One day it occurred to me: There is no good reason why looking for a job has to feel like a dead-end experience for anyone. I decided then and there that I wanted to share the skills I had developed so that others might learn from my personal odyssey. ExecuNet was created so that senior executives could get the very best career advice possible to help them understand and take on whatever they're up against. Fast forward to today, and our mission has not changed: ExecuNet is a brand of new possibilities, relentlessly focused on providing people at the top of the organization advice and counsel they can trust to create the transformative career results they want, whatever their dream might be or the challenge they might be facing. To put it directly: we are an executive career services organization where C-Suite leaders, Vice Presidents and their direct reports can obtain trusted guidance and personal support with making a corporate job change, building a portfolio of board seats, launching a side business, or taking their careers in other fulfilling new directions. I get it, because, like I said, I've been there. Life as a senior-level executive is hard, harder than most people think. Long hours, crushing workloads, multiple and constant pressures, unpopularity, and loneliness often come along with the job. And for many these days, so does re-evaluation. Perhaps now more than ever before, executives are assessing their work-lives and pondering their options for the next great chapter in their careers. They are reimagining what their work lives could be. They want better choices and to be excited about work again. You might be telling yourself you're too old or too settled to make the change you want, or that it's too risky, or you simply don't have the time. One of these could be your exact situation. Whether your circumstances comprise your ability to change and succeed is entirely up to you. All I can tell you is this: I'm living proof that the perfect role is out there waiting for you, and that making an exciting career change when you're over 50 or confronted with any dilemma is completely achievable. Even the best of the best executives have blind spots. We can all use a trusted, outside perspective, weighing in. The trusted experts and caring, personal success agents you'll meet at ExecuNet will help you implement the action plan you need to get the results you're after - whether it entails immediate executive job search strategy or major career exploration. Isn't it time you took the limits off and pursued success with people in your corner who will offer you truth, honesty and empowerment to be the best? All of us here at ExecuNet hope you'll let us be a part of your journey. I welcome your feedback anytime, which you can give by e-mailing us at member.services@execunet.com or calling us at 203-750-1030.

Be ready to put in the work My experience is a few years old now but it did result in a new position which was the desired outcome. You have to put in the work to outline your skills in order for them to be packaged. My coach was very helpful in preparing me for various rounds of interviews as it had been several years since I’d been through that process. For the type of position I was seeking I didn’t find the job postings to be as relevant and I was still doing a lot of networking beyond what Execunet had to offer.

So far so good! In the process of defining my brand, planning my job search strategy and ultimately finding my dream job! So far, all of the "experts" have been supportive and collaborative. The training is tailored to individual focus and certainly worth it! Looking forward to seeing everything come together. . . .

Helping transitioning senior leaders build their employment brand and confidence Execunet provided a critical service for me as I entered into a search for my next senior level career opportunity in a geography outside of my well-established professional network.. Having not been in a job search for a while I was initially not very clear about my unique value proposition and professional brand. The insights and coaching that I received through Execunet's structured process catalyzed "ah ha" moments, enabling me to define and articulate a much fuller picture of how I solve business problems and the value and impact that I deliver through my unique perspective and background. Execunet writers produced a strong resume and LinkedIn profile using this information, as well as a one page graphic that gives a quick overview of my career. These materials are getting excellent reception by prospective employers and the many people I am networking with. I am also using the materials to practice for upcoming interviews and feeling much more confident about my search as a result. Would highly recommend this process.

Since the Beginning I have been working with Execunet since 1989. I would fax my jobs orders to Dave Opton directly. They have always been very professional and very helpful. Lisa Longwell has been my contact for many years and she knows how to hug the customer.
