He was the firm's Vice President of Corporate communication for 10 of those years and, as its Organizational Development Officer, was in charge of developing the organization's strategic planning function and management system. He's the owner of Hasse Communication Counseling, which helps job seekers with disabilities gain the confidence they need to build meaningful careers for themselves. Hasse is a Global Career Development Facilitator (GCDF). He has been managing online interactive communities to generate and share career management insight for individuals who have a disability since 1997.

As eSight's Senior Content Developer, he wrote, assigned and edited more than 1,300 articles about disability employment issues. Between 1997 and 2001, Hasse developed tell-us-your-story.com, a now discontinued web site where people with disabilities shared their personal experience stories and which provided a launching pad for eSight Careers Network. A 1965 graduate of the University of Wisconsin-Madison's School of Journalism, Hasse is an Accredited Business Communicator (ABC) by the International Association of Business Communicators, San Francisco, CA. In 1994, he received the Cooperative Spirit Award from the Cooperative Communicators Association (CCA), a national organization for professional communications employed by cooperatives, and the Cooperative Builder Award from the Wisconsin Federation of Cooperatives, a state-wide trade association. In 1995, he received CCA's most prestigious honor, the H.E. Klinefelter Award for distinguished service in cooperative communications.

His latest hardcover book is "Perfectly Able: How to Attract and Hire Talented People with Disabilities" (AMACOM, 2011), a disability recruitment guidebook for hiring managers which he compiled and edited for Lighthouse International, New York City.

Book 3 in the Career-Readiness Strategies series shows parents and counselors how to help teens with a disability build one of the most important life skills necessary for a successful career: emotional intelligence.
Here's the good news: emotional intelligence can be learned in high school and it could be a game changer for your teen with special needs as a job seeker in a few short years.
This guide to parenting outlines 15 such strategies. Based on National Career Development Guidelines (NCDG), it's a comprehensive blueprint for empowering parents and counselors who seek to prepare high school students (ages 14-18) with disabilities for gaining meaningful employment as adults.
In this book, you and your high school student will discover:
- How today's definition of "disability" is rapidly becoming obsolete and meaningless
- How to help your high school student grow in self-confidence
- How to discover disability's competitive edge in tomorrow's job market
- How your high school student can become the "exception" instead of the "rule" in tomorrow's competitive job market
- How your high schooler measures up to key career-preparation NCDG milestones
- How to prepare your high school student with special needs for a seamless school-to-work transition
- How to build trust (as a professional counselor or as a parent) with a high school student who has a disability
Author Jim Hasse, who has life-long athetoid cerebral palsy, shares the wisdom he gained as a practicing, certified Global Career Development Facilitator for six years and as a 33-year corporate executive, 10 years of which were at the vice president level for a Fortune 500 organization.
Let this unique and informative resource guide you on your journey, as you constructively mentor your high school student along the road to eventual career success.
Check out this entire five-book series to help your youngster navigate the various stages of development along the way to fulfill his or her vocational dreams.
