CAREER COACHING

CREATING TRULY THRIVING CAREERS

With almost half our conscious lives spent at work, our careers play an extremely critical role in our overall happiness, satisfaction and well-being. The most enriching careers are designed around individual strengths carefully choosing domains where one’s natural abilities are manifested best. Taking the right decisions at the right time, identifying relevant opportunities and being a step ahead in foreseeing one’s career trajectory is the x-factor that separates thriving careers from careers for mere sustenance.

Worth mentioning that there are many mid-career professionals who realise this too late and then are left mid-way with an unfulfilling career wondering how did they land here when they did everything right. That’s because a ‘thriving career’ is beyond the limiting parameters of income, designation and employer brand but are also better aligned with one's strengths, personality type and personal values. Truly thriving careers are curated around the individual and not the other way around.

In our career coaching conversations, we will not only discuss tactical things like career moves, skill gaps and strategies around cracking that dream job but also immersive discussion(s) around knowing the self and then shaping your career from inside-out. We will jointly map a winning career alignment around your skills, strength and personal values that you uphold. For mid to senior executives one might also wish to look at a career transition or a pivot that now takes you in an express lane and offers your best to the world from your experience, insights and thought leadership.

However, the first and foremost step to create a career you love is to look inwards, I call it ‘Personality Blueprinting’ - a 5 session 1-o-1 personal Coaching journey that helps you know yourself better. We will work on critical areas like strengths, personal values, career drivers and purpose. At the heart of these discussions is unravelling the WHY & WHAT before commencing exploration into the HOW of shaping your career. We will have reflective coaching discussions around -

What you does a career mean to you?
What does success mean to you?
Where are your skills best utilised?
What are your career goals and motivations?
Where does your career fit in your Life canvas?

These immersive, self-reflective sessions are highly recommended to truly create a long-lasting, genuinely satisfactory career strategy.

CAREER ADVISORY

Basis my hiring experience across organisations large and small, having screened thousands of resumes and interviewed hundreds of candidates coupled with scientific Coaching techniques I can assist you with the following:

Masterclass on Personal Branding
Landing your dream job - how to make inroads?
Strategies around getting back to the job market
Career pivots and transitions
Reigniting and discovering new career options post sabbatical
Cracking the personal interview code - looking beyond the job description
An exhaustive resume review and feedback
Mock personal interviews
A detailed LinkedIn profile review

A success imperative that has emerged in the new world is Personal Branding and the platform that has helped professionals do this successfully time and again is LinkedIn. The number of doors that one’s LinkedIn profile and activity has opened for professionals (whether full-time or self-employed) is unimaginable! From a headhunting perspective, especially for critical high-impact roles, the world has moved beyond job portals. LinkedIn claims that a new hire is made from their platform every 10 seconds! Your profile thus becomes super critical to open doors for you today and tomorrow if we look at how markets and trends around us are unfolding.

Depending on every individual’s career goal, I will personally create a coaching and advisory plan and do not believe in offering ready-made packages for clients to choose from. Each individual is unique in their skillset, background, experience, career stage and aspirations. I will carefully curate a coaching plan customised to YOU.

💡A career is not limited to full-time, salaried employment. It encompasses entrepreneurship, part-time roles, gig workers and consulting opportunities.
