Career
Coaching
I
am tremendously excited about the success my clients have experienced
as a result of career coaching! Often, the most multi-talented of people
have the hardest time with career satisfaction, or have not really explored
the career choice that will give them the most fulfillment. We can work
together to carefully choose the path will reflect your personality and
skills. Together we will:
- Clarify
your values, and determine your formula for career success.
- Determine
the optimal career path to accommodate your professional, intrinisic,
environmental, and financial needs, so you look forward to going to
work.
- Clarify
your priorities, so you can screen out less than optimal opportunities.
- Help you
learn to trust your intuition and "wiser side" instead of
your critical voices so you overcome the fear of success or failure.
- Negotiate
any obstacles along the way that could prevent you from reaching your
goals.
- Expand
your vision to create bigger, more exciting goals.
- Develop
your resume interviewing and networking skills.

Tips
1. The clearer
you are about what you want, the easier it will be to go after it. Identify
the qualities that are essential for your career satisfaction, then look
for a position where you will find those qualities.
2. Know what
you bring to a potential employer or position. Gather information about
what makes you unique and valuable.
3. Our egos,
or inner critical voice, always tell us to go for the money, status, that
we aren't qualified, we couldn't really do that, that we should please
our parents or others. It is important to learn to tune out this voice,
and listen to what you truly want.
4. Determine
the maximum commute, and realistic minimum salary you need when looking
for your next position. Create a budget that will reflect your priorities.
5. Many people
do not find their jobs through employment ads. People are most likely
to find their next position though networking and informational interviewing.
There are a variety of methods to increase your skills in these areas,
coaching being one of the most effective ways.
6. If unemployed,
create a supportive network to keep you focused on your talents and strengths.
Keep your motivation active, and your skills current by joining comittees,
or volunteering in civic or political arenas. Act on positive feedback
from others to improve your written and oral presentations.
