DESCRIPTION & OVERVIEW

 

This is a bespoke programme based on your personal goals and challenges. Most likely, I will start by taking stock of your current career: what’s working and what’s not. From there I can discuss what specifically you are looking for in your next job or career. You may already have some ideas for alternative careers that we can work through, but if not I can explore your options together.  The programme as a minimum will be:

​

• 30 minutes initial consultation (Free discovery call) to see if coaching is right for you.  This will involve looking in depth at where you currently are in your personal / working life and what may be holding you back.

• 12 hours of one-to-one contact time (one hour a week)

• Unrivalled blend of career coaching and career consulting 

• Tracking work progress of each session 

• Email mentoring between sessions

 

SUGGESTED PROGRAMME STRUCTURE

 

1)  Reflect & Plan: Pre-work, Sessions 1 – 2

 

Whether you’re seeking a new role, a total career change, or just want to improve your performance in your current role, it’s vital you have a deep understanding of yourself. Through a combination of self-reflection tools and discussion you will identify your unique qualities, and discover how you can articulate these to prospective employers through your CV, LinkedIn profile and in person. 

 

You will create a high level 5-year vision of what you ultimately want your career to give you, keeping you motivated and moving forward. You’ll also map out the dates and content of your career programme, including key milestones and identifying positive habits you’d like to create.

 

Exercises & Resources:

2)  Options & Connections: Sessions 3 – 6

 

It’s easy to dismiss certain career paths as being unrealistic or even impossible, before we allow ourselves to explore them further. Carving out time to write down a wide range of potential routes and options helps identify all future possibilities.  If you already know the role you want, you’ll focus on expanding your target list of employers. 

 

After creating a list of all your possible options, you’ll methodically explore each of them with focused research, including honing and expanding your own personal network through conversations. Most people dread the idea of networking, but when you learn how to do it authentically - and on your terms - it can open up huge opportunities.

3)  Stretch & Evaluate: Sessions 7 -12+ (if required)

 

Everyone has insecurities, and our motivation and professional confidence will often fluctuate. One of the most effective ways to develop our confidence is through the practice of stretching our comfort zone. This could be through more networking, mock interviews, or trying public speaking. 

 

Reflecting objectively on successes and setbacks is important, as is shifting our mindset about failure. Learning to embrace failure and see mistakes as growth opportunities is not easy, but the more you practice this, the more resilient and self-aware you will become. You’ll develop new skills, attitudes and habits that can serve you for the rest of your professional career.
