Hi. My name is Darren Mell. I have been a people leader for the past 20 years. For the last 10 years I have had the unique opportunity to interview, hire, onboard, train, and develop, and promote exclusively young professionals early into their careers, or where the ink is barely dry on the diploma or degree. Through countless hours of 1 X 1 meetings with this aspiring group of people, I have real data and advice to share with you that the knowledge, confidence, and awareness to "steer" your career in the direction that want to achieve personal and career success.

I'm not a CEO or a celebrity, I am a middle manager leader of people who wants to help you like I've helped other young professionals. My personal story of how I shaped my career of 35 years of post college work to where I am now, coupled with the experience of the "rinse and repeat" hiring and training mode I have been in for 10 years should give you a solid foundation to launch your career quickly and successfully. Music is a big part and hobby in my life. This isn't some stuffy "three piece suit" book that is rigid and fierce. I'll keep it light. You just might laugh a little too, as having fun along the way to career success is one of my top priorities as a leader. A lot of what I will show you are simply subtle changes in the way you think and act that can have a major impact on you success. If you're ready, then let's ROCK!
