HELPING YOU CREATE & SUSTAIN YOUR STEM CAREER or WORKFORCE PIPELINE

At ValiantLane we provide individual clients and organizational clients with the advantage of being supported in their contributions to and needs from the STEM workforce by a uniquely qualified and effective workforce capability and capacity builder. Valerie A. Lane, Founder and President, is a former consulting scientist for a variety of STEM industries. She is a career thinking partner and coach for STEM professionals and students who aspire to a STEM career. With a background of  more than 25 years combined business and technical experience, including operations management, Valerie offers a comprehensive perspective to individuals for planning, achieving, and sustaining a STEM career. At the organizational level, she supports strategic hiring and human resource management for developing and sustaining a targeted STEM workforce.

As a result of Valerie’s own long-term STEM career and technical expertise, she understands and anticipates:

  • Interrelated impacts of organizational and individual career transitions from COLLEGE GRAD to NEW WORKER, moving into CAREER BUILDER, through MENTORING in a mature career or retirement into “what’s next.”
  • Career–lifestyle perspectives and objectives of our multi-generational workforce, including integration of entry-level STEM workers with their more experienced colleagues and supervisors.

Having Valerie in your corner—for individual clients to create, navigate, and maintain the STEM careers, or organizational clients to generate their STEM workforce sustainability—provides a high Return on Investment through her advising, coaching, and insight to resource management.
