Coaching/What I Do For You
I will always answer the question/brief you give to me. My focus is to provide actionable steps to help you attain your career objectives. Questions typically relate to three areas: increasing marketability, clarifying career options, and making a chosen career option happen as quickly as possible! My promise is to move you positively in the direction you want to go in a maximum of five sessions. Practically you might seek help in clarifying one of three areas:
"Help me work out what to do next with my career."
"Help me work out how to achieve what I would like to do next."
"Help me maximise my marketability."
Clarifying Career Options
- By analysis of what you do well and not what your title says you do, we shall clarify what
your ideal career path is. Clarity of preferred jobs and environments will lead to pragmatic choices.
- 'Your brief' - Active consideration of your options will make possible the development
of 'your' brief.
- Extensive questioning and directed 'self analysis' help me to clarify the optimal course of action.
Making Chosen Career Options Happen
- A compelling resume - A clear brief makes it possible to write a compelling resume.
- A clear brief will make it possible for you to articulate exactly what you want.
- A clear and meaningful brief will galvanize your enthusiasm/passion - This will enhance your credibility with potential employers.
- A clear brief allows for immediate and definitive action toward making your goals a reality.
Increasing Your Marketability
- By showing you that you 'are a brand' that needs to be managed.
- By clarifying what makes your brand different and therefore most marketable.
- By clarifiying the passion driving your brand.
- I help make you more marketable by encouraging you to think of yourself as a brand. I do this by focusing you on those core attributes that you believe define you as well as those elements that you 'want' to define your career.
