Career Clarity Coaching Programme

Deeply explore your career options with this
6 session intensive programme.

Why we get 'stuck' in our career ...

Do you feel stuck in a job you no longer love? Stuck working on things that no longer excite you? Maybe you're stuck looking for a new job or career? I'm sure you know exactly what I'm talking about. 

Many of us get stuck in the inertia of a daydream of how our career might look but fail to do anything about it. I know, because for a long time this was me. There can be a number of reasons for this:

  • Not fully understanding yourself and what you want in your career
  • Being unclear about the options available to you
  • Difficulty in dealing with the blocks that prevent you from making changes
All of these factors deplete your confidence to take action ...

What this means for you

The downside of this inertia is the gradual erosion of what could be in your career and the chance to live your best life at work. 

Also, numerous studies have linked unhappiness at work with unhappiness in life. If you are not enjoying your job you are more likely to suffer with mental health challenges, have lower confidence and self-worth and feel lower overall motivation.

It doesn't have to be this way ...

A simple and powerful solution to getting unstuck

Career coaching with me provides a way for you to get unstuck and deeply explore your career options and discover a job that excites you and matches who you are to the life you want to lead.

The Career Coaching process uses a 5 step model to give you the clarity and confidence to move ahead in the next stage of your career leading to a more satisfying, meaningful and enjoyable working life.
The wait is over; sign up for this 6 session intensive 1:1 coaching programme designed to bring you career clarity, transform your career and move you into inspired action. Get started now to transform your career

Testimonials

Mark’s coaching has been transformational. 
 
Mark is someone that genuinely cares about other people and wants them to succeed, this was clear from my first session.  He is a great listener and very insightful.  The resources and sessions he has developed are excellent. 
 
Our work together has left me with a clear action plan for my future and a renewed love and excitement for my current work. 
I can’t thank or recommended Mark enough

Katherine Hudson, COO, Keep Britain Tidy

Mark came highly recommended to me, and the impact of his coaching on my career has been exceptional. Not only do I feel I have the tools to move my career forward, but within a few short sessions, my confidence, fulfilment and happiness in my role has really increased. 

No matter where you are in your career at the moment, I cannot recommend Mark highly enough. I learned so much about myself and feel a renewed sense of satisfaction and happiness in my work

    FAQs

    What happens in career coaching?

    I work with clients face-to-face (currently not an option) or via video or telephone. Each session lasts about 60 - 90 minutes. My Career Transformation Programme for clients is a 6-session intensive coaching programme designed to help you to make powerful changes in your career.
    There are usually five phases to the process:

    Exploring– understanding your situation and exploring your current reality
    Clarifying– looking at your skills, experience, values and aspirations
    Visioning– designing your future together
    Blocks and Bridges - removing those things that block you and identifying resources to help you
    Implementing– putting a plan together, including those resources you will need along the way, to support you in achieving your vision

    Where does the meeting take place?

    We currently meet over video (Zoom, Teams etc) or by phone and you can book a slot directly in my calendar to match your own availability.

    Do I really need career coaching?

    We know that career coaches help people to make powerful changes in their career but are they suitable for everybody?

    For example, can you manage your own career challenges? The answer is yes, however you would need good skills in self-reflection and evaluating options as well as having an opportunity mindset and being able to communicate well.

    What about getting some help from a friend or family member? Again this will depend on: 

    1. How much time they can give you
    2. Their ability and skills to coach
    3. Whether they have the knowledge to help you progress in the areas you’re working on

    If you are stuck in your career and are unable to either work through the issues yourself or find a support partner, then investing in some time with a really good professional coach could pay real dividends.

    How can career coaching help me?

    Coaching is about Gap Analysis, helping you to close the gap between where you are and where you want to be.
    Coaching is also about unlocking your potential to maximise your performance. 
    How can coaching support you?

    • Helping you understand your existing situation better – sometimes you can’t see the woods for the trees
    • Supporting you to get really clear on what you want at work
    • Assisting you to create a practical action plan to achieve your goals
    • Helping you to look at your career options and to discover a job that excites you and matches life you want to lead.

    Can you be too old to change career?

    There’s a common misconception that by a certain age you should have your career sorted. This probably harks back to the day when most people had one career lasting 40 years. Many people now have multiple careers. 

    It doesn’t matter what your age; career change will always be an option for you. So if at 30, 40, 50 or 60 you’re worried that you may be too old to change career, think again.

    You can change your career at any age. Permit yourself to follow what you feel is right for you regardless of your age. 

    What if I like my job but I’m not currently enjoying it?

    Great question. Working with a career coach doesn’t always mean changing jobs or careers. We can stop enjoying our jobs for many reasons and many of these can be resolved by working through the issues, making adjustments to the role and bringing a renewed freshness and energy to the workplace.
     
    Sometimes it takes somebody independent and skilled in career coaching to help you to get back your Va Va Voom!

    Are our conversations confidential?

    Absolutely and as a member of the Association for Coaching and as an Accredited Coach I am committed to promoting excellence in coaching as set out in the Global Code of Ethics.
