Professional Impact Unit
Introducing Professional Impact Unit
Professional Impact Unit is the team of professionals from our Talent for Impact Center dedicated to the professional development of EAE Barcelona students. We design specialized training paths within our two areas of action: Corporate Profiles and Entrepreneurial Profiles.
What do we mean by professional development? It’s a continuous process of learning and growth within the professional world that allows you to improve your skills, knowledge and competencies to better position yourself in the current and future job market and ensure long-term employability
The Professional Impact Unit Guarantee
Professional Impact Unit is composed of over 60 specialized professionals in different areas of professional development, both internal and external to EAE Barcelona. We have recruiters, career consultants, resume experts, coaches, headhunters, industry specialists, mentors, researchers and doctoral professors.
Our collective mission is to empower each student to navigate the complex and ever-changing job market with confidence and to create the habits and connections necessary to generate opportunities for impact throughout their entire career. We understand that every time a professional takes an opportunity or creates an impact —whether in their career, their company or someone else's life— they in turn generate new opportunities for their environment.
Professional Impact Unit’s Goals
Our three main goals are networking, skills development and advice on employability and entrepreneurship. But we don't like to stay in the abstract. Our knowledge is materialized in impacts, our micro-goals are measured with real data, because what drives us is for each student to experience tangible impact in their professional field during and after the program:
- Increase visibility of professional profiles on LinkedIn and other professional media.
- Increase the number of secured interviews.
- Successfully pass recruitment processes.
- Secure one or more job offers during the program.
- Increase salary or salary range of received offers.
- Develop a career plan with goals within your current company.
- Improve relevant skills and competencies for better opportunities: communication, negotiation and personal branding.
- Expand professional network.
- Connect professionals in their network with opportunities in their environment.
- Create measurable value in their professional project.
Our Approach
We design specialized training paths within our two areas of expertise: corporate profile and entrepreneurial profile. We have more than 10 paths that are personalized and adapted to the needs and situation of each participant. We work with each student at the different stages of the path they are on.
Each student has a personalized action plan that allows them to maximize their job opportunities based on their interests and profile. Your particular plan and path determine which Professional Impact Unit professionals you can contact at any given time.
Each of our specialists provides different tools, contacts and specialized guidance in their area through workshops, one-to-one sessions, content and various activities and events.
