Are you ready to take your career to the next level?

The International Coach Federation defines coaching as "an ongoing partnership that helps clients produce fulfilling results in their personal and professional lives. Through the process of coaching, clients deepen their learning, improve their performance and enhance their quality of life". Career coaching focusses on career primarily but it does touch in other areas of your life as we look at a career that makes sense for your LIFE as a whole. We will build upon each session but you have the control to choose where you want to focus on and the coach will ask questions, confirm with you what it is that you want to get out of the session and we will work to get to that outcome. Coaching concentrates on where the clients are today and what they are willing to do to get to where they want to be tomorrow.

With the growth of a profession such as coaching, it is important to highlight what coaching is not since the term coaching is widely used for many types of services. Coaching is NOT therapy: Therapy focus on overcoming blocks that have held you back in the past. Coaching is NOT mentorship: a mentor is someone who sponsors an individual, offering their own professional experience to help individuals grow in that specific field. Coaching is NOT consultancy: a consultant provides specific service in their field of expertise and solve problems

A career coach can help with a number of work related topics such as: Choosing a new career path Undertataking a career transition Job search support Redundancy support Becoming a first time manager/ leader Improving prioritisation, time management and delegation skills Developing communication skills Learning how to manage a team effectively Building your personal brand

Coaching is a powerful to anyone at any stage in their lives. However, it requires commitment to want to change and make a change. You need to be ready to be doing a lot reflection on yourself and to take action to change your life! I will be here all the way to support you through this process and give that extra accountability to make things move

When you choose to work with a coach, it is important that you find the right person that can bring the best of you. My coaching follows a person centred approach which means that I tailor my work to your needs and where you are at. As a coach, I always want to make sure that the work you come to coaching to complete is something that I have the skills and knowledge to deliver. With that in mind, therefore, the other key reason that we connect together before we jump into working together is to give me a chance to assess if I am the right coach for you and if I am not, give me the opportunity to signpost you on to someone who is. So yes, I know you might want to get cracking right away and feel like you know what you need but I would always urge you to spend those 30 mins with me up front to get a feel for what it's like to work with me, explore where you're at, agree what you want to achieve in your coaching and to ask any questions you might have. Getting clear on these things from the outset hugely increases our ability to form a successful, productive and enjoyable coaching partnership.
