The Assistant Golf Professional's Career Roadmap

“Your future success is built by the actions you take everyday.”??

Are you taking action today?

The most successful people in any industry know what they offer, where they want to go, and how they’re going to get there.? They set a plan in place and execute on a daily basis to work toward their goals, day in and day out.? And while they travel on their path to success, they invest in themselves, accumulating skills and experience that enable them to grow and develop, and stand out from their peers.??

The rest get left behind.??

The challenge is that most of this is never taught.? If you’re lucky, you have a mentor that does it for you, but we all know everyone is busy and asking for help can be hard.??

We’ve never had it spelled out, step by step, in a way that can guide you through the process of defining your future and helping to ensure you succeed when you get there.

The “Career Accelerator” Coaching Program was developed as a roadmap for Assistant Professionals to define your path by learning what works for you to create the impact you desire in your career.??

Here’s the process:

Begin with the end in mind by defining where you want to go, and then determine what you need to achieve along the way to get there.? Who do you need to spend time with? Where do you need to be???

Next we’ll discover how to excel in your current position by learning to lead where you are today, in order to build a path to a leadership position in the future.

But without building a positive reputation, better known as a “Personal Brand”, who will hire you? Or even know what you’re capable of bringing to the table? We’ll learn why this matters and how to make it happen, simply and effectively in 2022 and beyond.

Progressing in your career means landing jobs when you have the opportunity.? There’s no telling when and where these will become available…but you need to be ready to beat the competition when the time comes.? Your resume, your cover letter, and your interviewing skills are going to be critical steps to making this happen.? We’ll break down the do’s and don'ts so you can stand out from the pack.

Landing the job of your dreams is one thing.? Having success when you get there, is another.? New leaders quickly realize that “people” bring a set a of never-before seen challenges that few are truly prepared to handle.? While there is an infinite amount to learn about great leadership, we’ll set the foundation so you’re prepared to begin your evolution up the leadership ladder.

Finally, ask many great Golf Professionals what their jobs truly come down to, and you’ll hear one word…COMMUNICATION.? Whether it’s building strong relationships, delivering difficult news, or appealing to all segments of your customer and member base, it’s hard to succeed without a certain level of communication skills.??

There it is….

Know where you want to go, succeed where you are today, build a great reputation, land the job when you have the chance, win when you get there, and communicate to build long-term success.????

This is the Career Accelerator.? The only program devoted to helping you achieve your goals so you can move your career in golf forward with sustainable success.?

As part of the cohort of fellow Golf Professionals, you’ll take part in…

• 6 Virtual Coaching Sessions delivered weekly, each devoted to a step in this process.? Each session will last 60-90 minutes.
• 4 Bonus Mastermind Classes covering topics that will further your development, such as how to hire effectively, merchandising success strategies, budgeting, and building a teaching business.? Each of these will include an industry expert to coach you through the topic.? Joining live will give you the opportunity to take part in a Q&A with our expert.
• Private “Slack” Channel devoted so you can meet, network, and share with the Golf Professionals in your cohort.? We have value in numbers through our collective knowledge and experiences.? The more we share, the better we get and the greater our network, the greater our chances for success. ? Slack is a private messaging app where you’ll join the rest of your colleagues in the class to exchange ideas, meet fellow Golf Professionals, and?

ac·cel·er·a·tor

noun

1. a person or thing that causes something to happen or develop more quickly.

Getting hired in a coveted role is an investment from that club, from their members, and from their leadership.??

No matter what type of role you’re aspiring to land, people won’t invest in you unless you take the time, and put in the effort to invest in yourself.??

Others out there are already doing this.? Don’t sell yourself short by ignoring opportunities for growth and development.??

Are you ready to invest in yourself and accelerate your career?
