coaching for individuals

What can 1:1 career coaching do for you?

Most of us spend more time planning a holiday than planning careers, so spending a little time working out exactly what work you should be doing makes a big difference.

What will you get out of a career coaching session?

How we work

Our support for individuals focuses on the ideas, tips and exercises featured in John Lees’ career books. Career coaching  focuses on your individual needs with tailored packages –  everything from a Taster Session to Executive Career Coaching. In order to respond quickly to clients in many different locations we coach using Zoom.

Normally the first meeting will help you clarify where you want to get to, or the changes you’d like to make. We also look at the barriers to change and first steps to get past them. Many of our clients feel enabled and equipped to start exploring new career ideas after one or two sessions. If you need feedback on your CV, a sharper job search strategy, or help preparing for an interview, we can help.

 

We don’t try to lock you into a long programme. Most of our clients have 3-4 sessions, some just one. You might like to start with a 40-minute Taster Session which costs £80.00. The goal of a Taster Session is to help you clarify your key issues and plan a way forward. It’s also a good way to find out if career coaching will be useful to you, and a chance to get to know one of our team.

If you want a more detailed overview you might find it more useful to go for an initial 60-minute session. Our standard coaching rate is £120.00 per hour. A discount is available if you pay for 3 hours’ coaching in advance.
