My Career Snapshot/Speaker's Bio
My name is Lisa Dupras, and I'm a career coach with an experienced perspective and innovative techniques. I bring over 15 years of experience in Corporate HR and IT, specializing in performance, recruiting, and compensation. I always tailor my coaching approach to meet the unique needs of each of my clients. As a certified hypnotherapist, I can provide specialized services for stressed job seekers, including mind-body techniques that ease interview anxiety or reframe the thoughts that limit their progress.
My career services include personal branding, career visioning, resume updates, interview preparation, and job search strategies. I am best known for my straight-shooting advice and coaching style of working closely one-on-one with clients as 'partners.'
As an 'expert contributor' for the National Resume Writers Association blog series, I have established myself as a thought leader in the industry. I have contributed to Entrepreneur.com, The Forage, and Informed Finance, and was a featured solopreneur in GoSolo Magazine.
On a fun note, I went to Las Vegas last year and practiced street hypnosis on the Vegas strip! I am a Jersey Girl that lives at the Jersey Shore, and on weekends, you can find me out on my boat. A few of my recent volunteer activities:
-
Free seminars through the local library
-
Helping companies through Catchafire.org
-
Advisory Board Member to the Ocean County School of Business (NJ)
I'm always interested in contributing to blogs, podcasts, public speaking, or teaching events. I can be reached at elev8youcoaching.com
