We help women in professional and leadership positions to navigate job and role changes with ease as well as recover from career set-backs with confidence. Working towards a career goal or outcome is the easier part of the journey as you have clear milestones to achieve. Once you achieve your goal, the transition and acclimatizing in this new phase tends to be the biggest challenge.
The transition requires a new mindset, skills and behaviour. Most professionals overlook this or are not aware how important a part it is in ensuring career success.We provide advisory, coaching, tools and techniques to enable better navigation and performance during the transition phase.
PREPARE for your career
You are ambitious, want to grow your career in a meaningful way and make an impact in every role you occupy (and company you work for). You may be asking yourself two or more of these questions:
-What do I want for my career?
-To what extent is my career aligned to my life purpose?
-How do I live my life purpose through my career?
-What career outcomes do I want – beyond the job?
-What impact do I want to make? What legacy do I want to leave?
-What am I prepared to let go to achieve it? What will I gain?
-How do I prepare for the next different/big/complex role (in my company or in a different company)?
-What does the next level/complex role look like? What are the competencies – beyond qualifications and experience – required to be successful?
-How do I know I am ready? How will I know when I am ready?
-How do I position myself for the career move once I am ready?
We help you craft a purpose-driven career growth strategy, roadmap and plan; so that you make an impact and leave a legacy while enjoying your career
NAVIGATE for your career
You have been promoted or appointed to a senior role and you soon realise there are aspects of the job you are not fully equipped for. How do you know? You may experience three or more of the following:-
-Even though you are qualified and experienced for this role (your appointment proves it by the way!) you are getting inconsistent results (you are doing well in some aspects, not doing well in others – but all are important for you to succeed in this role. Usually: you see results on the technical side of the role, however the process of getting the results; managing and/or working with diverse teams is not getting you the results quicker or the way you envisaged; perhaps interacting with senior stakeholders has become nerve-wrecking; nobody warned you about the intensity of balancing multiple ‘balls’ and dropping none;)
-You see the opportunities to do things differently to achieve even better results – but no one is buying in to your vision, there are too many ‘broken’ processes you don’t know where to start, you are not sure when is the right time to introduce changes
-You have been promoted to lead the team you were part of – your ex-team members now report to you. How do you establish your leadership and build a cohesive team?
-You have nagging doubt whether you have what it takes to do this job. (even though you are constantly assured that you can and have what it takes)
-You feel like you are drowning…
-You have no one to reach out in your company for help, as this might be seen as a weakness (organisation culture that doesn’t enable learning – encourage mistakes/failure as part of growing)
-You are eager to succeed in your new role and want to proactively set yourself up for success
We support you in your career journey during the First 100 days in your new job so that you acclimatize with ease and make impact quickly.
REVITALIZE for your career
Your career took a downward turn after a long run of success, for a myriad of reasons. This happens to a lot of people that we realise. It could be any of the following:
-You want a change of career and want a structured approach and/or objective perspective on your new career plan
-You want a change of career and not sure how to go about it
-You have suffer burnout (diagnosed or undiagnosed). High performing professionals are prone to this and most of the time it is left undiagnosed until its too late
-You have hit a plateau and lost interest in your current career
-You could have been exposed to a toxic work environment for a long time (your survival ‘band-with’ has been depleted) and this affected your performance and career
-You left your previous job on less favourable terms, lost your confidence and want to resuscitate your career
-You have decided to leave your job/company and want a structured exit strategy and plan without damaging your career (or burning bridges)
We help you with career revitalization strategy and roadmap to recover and rebrand yourself so you can reposition yourself in the market or new job with confidence
