Why Career Coaching?
Career coaching is an extremely powerful tool used by savvy individuals who choose to manage their careers in a very focused and goal-oriented way over a lifetime. In today’s volatile, uncertain, complex and unstable (VUCA) times, career coaching has proven to be more essential than ever as it can take place in a wide range of contexts (e.g., new graduate, mid-career, disruptive job creation, redundancy, retirement and other major transitions) and life stages.
Globalisation and digital disruption have had a tremendous impact on the workforce and the job market locally and globally. Many of the jobs people worked in 10-15 years ago, have gradually disappeared and some simply won’t exist in the next decade, either entirely or at the same number.
In fact, research shows that the jobs most likely to endure over the next couple of decades are those requiring specific skills such social intelligence, technical ability and creative intelligence. This presents many questions and challenges about the long-term viability of careers chosen by all employees: recent graduates, high potentials, middle-senior managers and senior executives. Other times, an individual may find herself feeling stuck of bored, despite career success to date.
Solutions to all these challenges can be readily found within the systematic and safe process provided by expert career coaching.
Benefits of Career Coaching
Career coaches add value to the life-long career management process by maximising insights gleaned from various intrapersonal (e.g. psychometric tests) and market-based sources and turning those insights into a career strategy and action plans that are meaningful to the individual. Nothing is as energising as moving forward, with purpose, on a well-built career path that is aligned with your life goals!
What is Career Coaching?
Career coaching is a focused, result-oriented process co-created by the coach and the coachee where insight is gained through assessments, interpretation, dialogue, appreciative inquiry and reframing to develop an action plan for the achievement of work related objectives.
There are many career counselling services in colleges and universities specifically established to assist students with job searching activities. However, when it comes to dealing with experienced employees, it is more appropriate to call on experienced Career Coaches to develop tailored programs which seek to explore the alignment between the individual’s personality, demographics, strengths, values and drivers and his/her career path.
Following the my approach to coaching, I design tailored programs that take into consideration all aspects of the leader’s life. Our highly effective coaching processes are holistic and multifaceted, drawing from the most current coaching theory and practices, and are underpinned by evidence-based models in psychology and organisational behaviour.
