Intensive

The problem

Most professionals build
one kind of capital. At risk.

Institutional loyalty, salary growth, and a strong internal reputation feel like stability — until they don't. The professionals who navigate transitions well aren't luckier. They've built differently.

You've invested in the wrong account
Years of tenure, internal relationships, and organization-specific knowledge — all of it anchored to one institution. None of it travels. The moment you leave, you're starting from zero in places that matter.
Your reputation ends at the door
If nobody outside your organization has heard of you, your reputation doesn't travel. Great work in a closed system stays closed. And in a transition — or a layoff — you'll find out quickly who knows your name.
Your network is too narrow
Close relationships with people inside your company feel like social capital — but they're the least portable kind. Wide, cross-sector connections are what actually open doors. Most professionals have it backwards.
Nobody ever taught you to audit this
Career development advice focuses on skills and salary. It ignores the full picture: the cultural fluency, psychological reserves, economic runway, and symbolic reputation that determine whether you have options — or don't.
What you'll build

Six capitals. Eight weeks.
One complete picture.

Each week, we audit where you are, identify the gaps, and build a specific plan. You'll leave with a Portability Profile — a complete map of your career capital and a 90-day activation plan to strengthen it.

01
Human Capital
Skills & Expertise
What you know how to do. The most portable capital you own — it moves with you almost anywhere. We identify what's truly transferable and what's just institutional.
Portability
02
Cultural Capital
Credentials & Fluency
Your degrees and the unwritten rules of professional settings. Your diploma travels — but every industry has its own code. We build your ability to read and adapt to new rooms fast.
Portability
03
Social Capital
Network & Relationships
Who you know — and how they're distributed. Wide connections across different industries travel well. Deep institutional ties usually don't. We restructure your network architecture.
Portability
04
Economic Capital
Money & Financial Agency
Your savings, assets, and runway. The most liquid capital you own. It buys you time and options during transitions — and most professionals don't treat it as a strategic career tool.
Portability
05
Symbolic Capital
Reputation & Visibility
Your name and what it means — but only in rooms where people have heard it. We build the external visibility infrastructure that makes your reputation travel beyond your employer's walls.
Portability
06
Psychological Capital
Mindset & Resilience
Your self-belief, hope, and ability to bounce back. It goes everywhere with you — but costs more for some professionals than others. We acknowledge that reality and build accordingly.
Portability
Who this is for

Built for anyone who needs
their career to travel.

  • Mid-career professionals who feel stuck inside one organization and want a way out that doesn't start from zero
  • Nonprofit and social-impact leaders building sustainability beyond a single employer or sector
  • Early-career professionals who want to build the right foundations before the wrong habits take hold
  • Anyone who has been laid off, restructured out, or watched institutional loyalty fail to protect them
  • Leaders who are strong inside their lane but invisible to anyone outside it — and know it
  • Professionals navigating sector transitions who want a framework and a community, not just hope
David Edgerton Jr.
Managing Partner, DEJ Search · Creator of Transferable Capital™
I spent 22 years in corporate America — engineering, IT leadership, organizational development — before being laid off from a role I had been loyal to for years. What I built after that wasn't a recovery story. It was a proof of concept.

The Transferable Capital framework emerged from that experience. I didn't invent the theory — I lived it. And the TC Group Intensive is where I teach professionals to build what I wish someone had taught me.
