Making the Move: What It Takes to Transition Between Sectors
Deadline: April 22, 2026,
Join us for a dynamic panel featuring three accomplished alumni who have successfully navigated careers across both the public and private sectors.
From a seasoned public servant who transitioned into consulting post-retirement, to a dual-sector leader who has moved fluidly between government and industry, to a professional who pivoted from public service into private sector consulting—each bringing a unique perspective on what it takes to adapt, lead, and create impact across environments.
Drawing on their experience in the Telfer Executive MBA, they’ll share how they developed transferable skills—from strategic thinking to leadership and decision-making—that enabled them to move confidently across sectors.
Together, they’ll offer candid insights on navigating change, applying experiences in new contexts, and redefining career paths in today’s evolving landscape.
