How We Start the Career Coaching Process

We will spend some time analyzing what stage of career you are experiencing, and from that we will know where to go next. We might decide to beef up your current life/work situation so that you feel energized and clear about your objectives. Or we might decide it’s time to RE-CREATE YOURSELF. This will mean going back the basics of clarifying values, styles, interests, preferences,dreams and goals.

Creating New Work/Life Patterns Program

This program takes you through a process for re-discovering yourself. Some of the tools we will use in the process:

Clean Sweep gives you a picture of the things that need to change in your life.  You can do this assessment on line here.

Your Personal Anthropology helps you clarify what is important.

Enneagram Personality Type Profile gives you a picture of how you interact with life and other people.

Defining Success helps you define what your own success would look like.

Journaling and/or Story Boarding Tapping into your creative side makes your goal setting enjoyable and ensures you are staying on track.

Developing Your Career Vision – Together we will develop a Workstyle-Lifestyle Career Vision that identifies where you want to go, what you have now, what you need to acquire, and how you will get to your vision and goal. I will hold you to your vision, and help you keep your focus as you put your plans into action.

Career Changing - If you decide you need to find a new means of earning a living, we will explore all the current job searching techniques:  on-line listings, writing a resumé that gets their attention, self marketing techniques, making use of on-line social networking, practicing behavioral interviews.

Independent Business People

If you are an independent business person, a sole practitioner, or a solo entrepreneur it’s likely that you are so busy that you’ve not taken the time to step back and focus on you long term objectives. No doubt you spend most of your time working at your business, rather than on it.

Telephone Coaching Nat Johnstone

 

As your coach, I will help you identify what your strengths are and develop systems that will make the flow of business less cumbersome and time consuming. If you are just starting out, chances are you are in “overwhelm”. Together we can identify what the important things are, what the obstacles are and develop plans to make it happen. You will have specific tasks to perform each week, and I will hold you to them – gently, of course.
