Career Coaching: Progression. On the whole, there is little point for most individuals to be having career coaching before they reach their 30s. Why? Because there is probably not yet enough professional history for us to work with in order to define your future. There are of course exceptions to this rule, but they are […]
Career Coaching: Trust. It takes time to make a really ambitious plan manifest. I had a client show up here for a mentoring session saying “I was wondering whether to come as I haven’t become a filmmaker yet”. Film-maker being the intention of his five-year plan and it only being 6 months since we have […]
Career Coaching: “Lucky”. Have you come across those people who just seem to land on their feet? Those that go for promotion and always get it? Those who consistently earn well without seeming to put much energy in? Those who even if they get made redundant, have a new job within days? Those who appear […]
Leadership Coaching: Firsts. There is a Jungian belief that we have all we will ever need around us. And, that we can only access when we are ready. If you are new to a leadership role then you might be asking questions about your suitability for this role? What makes us ready to access all these […]
Career Coaching: Show-Up. If you want a consistent outcome then you need to be consistent in your input. Your career, your project, your business or your team, will reflect exactly what you put into it. Fact! What we manifest outside in the world is a direct reflects of the actions that we take. The actions […]
Career Coaching: Energy Isn’t it interesting what we learn when we take an objective look at our actions and our thinking? Having just harnessed the data from a 14-day energy experiment I was asked to complete, some of the outcomes were obviously, some much less so. Aside from those half-hour entries that voiced: “Doing: being interrupted […]
Career Coaching: Communication. If you want to step into your authority, be congruent with you communication. One of the habits I see is this: an authoritative statement, immediately dismissed by a giggle. In my opinion this is due to fear. Fear of conflict, fear of discomfort, fear of not being liked, fear of the silence that […]
Career Coaching: Negativity Bias. The human brain is designed to have a negative bias. It is entirely designed to be looking for danger like a heat-seeking missile. This is how we have survived so long. This Negativity Bias is not always an asset, especially when you want to live forward or change a habit or […]
Career coaching: Self-belief. Can you believe in your own success? Some individuals seem to know their worth easily. The rest of us seem to battle daily with thy belief that we are ‘good enough’. Personally, on a vulnerable day, I can swing between momentarily delighted at what I have just achieved, and back down to […]
Leadership Coaching: DIY: If you don’t like how others are doing it then maybe it’s time to lead things yourself? I’m not advocating walking up and pushing your CEO aside. I’m not sure how well that would really go down in reality. What I am noticing is that if you consistently see better, more effective […]
