Career journeys are rarely linear—sometimes, the most unexpected turns lead to the greatest opportunities. If you're curious about a new career opportunity, join us for this webinar with Shameen Afif-Rider, who transitioned from a hands-on, lab-based role into the field of alliance management. Alliance management fosters strategic partnerships between companies and ensures effective collaboration to achieve shared goals. This cross-functional role requires strong relationship-building, negotiation, and strategic thinking to navigate complex business dynamics and influence stakeholders across departments. Shameen's story serves as a reminder that even if you feel "stuck" in one area, there are always possibilities for growth and reinvention.
