Hey Ambitious Senior Professionals and Executives, are you reaching for a seat at the top?
Executive coaching helps senior leaders and professionals develop exemplary performance, establish a reputation as an authority and develop a strategy to achieve their goals.
Career coaches play a pivotal role in guiding executives through transitions, promoting work-life balance, enhancing skills, and fostering effective networking.
Career coaching will help you discover what they really want to do with your life and then develop a strategy to achieve it.
It can be particularly relevant when you are faced with change. Promotion, change of job, redundancy – or even retirement. You might be ready for significant advancement. Or you might just want to review where you are now.
A coach who understands the dynamics of top teams and boards can be a valuable partner, offering tailored guidance and support to navigate the complexities of your role and achieve long-term career success.
They can provide valuable insights to keep you competitive by adapting to industry trends and staying ahead of the curve – often helping you discover skills and experience you had forgotten and suggesting opportunities you had not thought of.
A career coach can help you to:
Discover and understand who you really are
Identify and clarify what you most want
Create and develop strategies for how you will achieve your goals
Working with a coach will help you identify a career goal that is congruent with both your ambition and your personal and family life - and will help towards achieving it.
A coach can help you identify what you really want out of life – what would really give you satisfaction, make you feel fulfilled. They can help you appreciate the skills and experience that you have already accumulated. And can help you identify opportunities and a network of contacts who can help you.
Then, together, you can analyse what you have found, set goals and then develop a strategy to achieve the career you really want. It may be progress in your existing organisation. It might require a complete change of direction. You may need to develop or improve some skills.
With a plan and someone to support you along the way, you will be well on the way to success.
Do you aspire to a senior management position, seek to join a board as an executive or non-executive director, or are you considering a change to an entirely new career?
Let me help you start from first principles and identify the career path or next appointment that leads to your greatest job satisfaction, professional growth and financial reward.
Essential steps to obtaining the perfect role that is just right for you:
Identify your strengths - knowledge, experience and wisdom
Quantify your skills, knowledge, abilities and achievements
Discover your personality profile - identify strengths and motivations
Discover what you really, really want - What, Where, Who and WHY
Explore current options, including a dramatic change of direction
Develop a career plan and strategy to achieve your chosen goal
Develop and promote a personal brand - become 'known'
Generate a powerful CV, resume and LinkedIn page
Compose covering letters that put you in charge of the assessment process
Practise interview skills
Decide whether a promotion is right for you
Undertake due diligence before accepting an offer
Joining a senior management team or board of directors for the first time can be a big step. It can require a different mindset, new skills, a new identity and changed relationships. Suddenly, you can be exposed to new language, new ideas and new assumptions; some things not taught even on MBA courses.
Your first 100 days are critical to your future success. You must budget significant time for your induction programme. There will be a lot to learn - and it is your opportunity to establish your role and set expectations of your future behaviour and contribution.
I can support you through this stage, even acting as an intermediary to ensure that you get access to the people and information you require and appropriate support throughout.
I would love to help you plan your journey and decide on the next step. I can help you design and implement an effective strategy, and then, drawing on the resources of ThreeTicks Academy to provide a total on-boarding experience, supply you with mentoring and tools for a total professional development journey.
All coaching starts with a review.
I have designed an online assessment for you to review your current level of achievement in the following areas:
Personal effectiveness
Personal qualities
Governance
Finance
Strategy
Self development
It is designed specifically for new and aspiring directors, but can also be useful at any senior manager grade.
In addition to your results, you will receive a personal report with suggestions for improvement – and the offer of a free consultation with me. I look forward to that.
