MONMOUTH / OCEAN CHAPTER DESCRIPTION

Chapter Description
The chapter in Monmouth/Ocean, NJ has 875 professionals with more than half on the Alumni list (meaning -- employed or they have landed and are with a new employer). Monmouth/Ocean is a separate and distinct FENG chapter, but John Czajkowski and Jim Hockenberry run it jointly with its sister chapter Princeton. The two chapters have strong connections, many joint members, and a history of working together. They are close geographically which facilitates combined meetings.
Our mission is to support / guide, and help each other, share leads, and discuss general intelligence about the market. We look to help you to sharpen your talents and help you to grow in these areas:
• Skills for life -personal branding and fulfillment, self-marketing, personal awareness, etc..
• Professional development including how to better leverage your network and FENG, to better interview, to focus your goals, and how to reach out to others for help.
• Your business issues and concerns. Discuss and receive advice.
The two chapters hold two “Princeton breakfast-style” meetings per month with exceptions for holidays:
• A Zoom meeting, open to everyone in FENG, on the first Friday, and
• A Face-to-face-meeting in the Princeton area on the second Saturday.
The meetings are designed for members to get to know and help each other in a relaxed and informal setting. There is no agenda – this will give you time to interact and receive individualized attention. The goal of our meetings is to advance your career, meet your needs, and answer your questions. Everyone will have a chance to discuss his/her issues in a collaborative and constructive setting. Everyone contributes, and the format facilitates long-term friendships.
