“With Career Coaching, What You Do for a Living
Will Add to Your Life.”
Career Coaching is for people who want to excel at their work, and give more
than expected. Actually, most of us already want to excel, and it’s
no exaggeration to say that entrepreneurs, business owners, and employees at
all
levels want to positively dazzle their colleagues, customers, and clients!
What gets in the way? Let’s assume you’re an employee in a large
company. Some factors blocking excellence, such as the market and company policies,
may appear to be out of your control. You may not have the clout to change
them. Others, such as your personal commitment to excel, may be under your
control, but what can you, just one person, do to change things? Career coaching
will look specifically at your work, whatever it may be, focusing on you as
a person operating in the middle of an organization, bringing about the maximum
possible result for you. Colleagues and others sense that change, and the results
can be pretty dazzling.
What does this mean? Is Career Coaching going to accommodate you to fit in
better at work, so you can bring about positive changes? Or is it going to
encourage you to look outside the company for advancement? Neither. Career
Coaching, like other coaching, is client-directed. You decide what direction
we’ll take. So remember, it’s always about you; your coach won’t
force you or encourage you to do anything. You decide what a maximum possible
result would look like, and we move there.
For example, let’s say you’re happy in your large organization,
but feel blocked in promotions and income. What are the steps you can take
to improve your standing at work? You sense what they are; let’s work
on them. Or, if you just can’t ignore that gnawing feeling in your stomach
any more that says, “Time to go; this isn’t enough”, let’s
work on a smooth transition out of the company. But out to what? Well, Career
Coaching helps again: what do you care about most in work and business? Let’s
get clear on that and then make sure the new position or venture fits you dazzlingly.
More money? More power? Less responsibility? Less stress? More creative expression?
More balance between work and your home life? Tell your Career Coach, and get
to work.
