Did you know that there is a FORMULA for career success??
Over the past 22 years as a career transition specialist, while coaching my clients to reinvent their careers, I’ve gained many valuable insights about what it REALLY takes for them to gain control of their career and land the job they love.
And I'm grateful to use those valuable insights to provide even more value to each and every one of you during our coaching sessions.
STUCK IN A RUT
Have you ever felt stuck in your career? Like you’re not making any progress, or you’re not enjoying your work anymore? You are not alone.
Many mid-career professionals face a career crisis at some point in their lives.
A FAMILIAR SCENARIO
You've jumped from job-to-job, feeling dissatisfied, always looking for the elusive perfect role.
Or you've been working in the same company for over 10 years, doing the same kind of work, day in and day out.
You are good at what you do, but you feel frustrated, bored and unfulfilled.
You want to do something more meaningful and challenging, something that aligns with your passion and purpose.
But you don’t know what you’re passionate about, let alone your ‘purpose’ that you're supposed to find.
You try to figure it out on your own, but feel overwhelmed and confused.
There are so many options and possibilities, and you don’t know which one is right for you.
You feel scared you make make a wrong move, or risk your financial stability.
Now you feel trapped in a career that no longer suits you, but how can you make a break for it?
And another month goes by, then another and a year later you realise you’re still in the same place, continuing around and around like you’re on that proverbial hamster wheel.
And then redundancy looms … you feel anxious and pray that your role won’t be affected.? Then there is a call from HR to come in for a meeting and your heart sinks.
That’s that time you need help from a career change or career transition coach.
WHAT CAN A CAREER COACH DO FOR YOU?
A career transition coach is a professional who helps you transition from where you are right now to where you want to be.
Your coach specialises in helping mid-career professionals who want to make a change, but just don’t know where to begin.
You want to be taken on a journey towards career clarity so you can transition from afraid, confused and daunted about the entire process to … confident, clear and EXCITED about the next step in your career!
