a proven, co-active career path coaching map

The co-active model of coaching leans on the principle that clients are creative, resourceful and whole.  I created the following process for launching a new career path with this philosophy, ensuring we follow your lead, while aiming for higher impact or deeper fulfillment.   Our coaching relationship is dependent on trust and smart work, with a goal of transformational change...changing your behaviours to find what you define as "great work."

 

WE COVER FOUR AREAS:

Your Assets

Your Vision

Your Network

Your Brand

 

SELF AWARENESS -- Know your assets.  Recent human capital research confirms that self-awareness is one of the top two common traits of C-level executives, globally.

Self-awareness, anchored in your core values, is the first and most valuable step you'll take in the TRANSFORM coaching process.  This forms the foundation for your goals, choices, and the necessary action plans you'll design with your coach.  We use a variety of assessments and tools to evaluate your strengths, career preferences, life priorities and barriers that stop you from living large or achieving your objectives.

VISION -- where you aspire to be -- is part of self awareness.  Vision coaching engages you to think less about short term fixes and more on the long term, bigger picture.  Effective plans are anchored in vision -- what do you really want out of your work, your career?  What bigger impact are you open to? 

Next we balance your pursuits with reality and research, based on FIT, not just what you hope is your ideal next step.  Your guided work in market RESEARCH and NETWORK analysis are part of this stage. 

The final frontier of career path coaching encircles how you communicate your pursuit and the value of your brand (ie. what you bring to the table).  BRANDING is about how you navigate those career conversations, what you say about your strengths, fit, and interests in a relevant way when you are connecting with your professional network or future employer.  We cover best practices in networking, your career conversation readiness and your brand message, including online profiles, resume, cover letter and interview performance. 

In the end, you will have a greater sense of self, a clear path and the confidence to take it to the world.
