Career Management & Transition Coaching
What makes my program unique? I am an expert in the full lifecycle of career management starting with “what I want to do when I grow up” to landing the role and executive onboarding.
Over almost 30 years in Human Resources & Retained Executive Search, I’ve reviewed thousands of resumes, conducted hundreds of interviews and trained countless HR professionals to do the same. I’m bringing that expertise to the other side of the hiring process and love giving people tools to identify, prepare for and land a job they love with a career roadmap for the future connected to your life purpose.
Whether you have time off between roles or you’re maintaining your current job during your search, your focus can be on self care, enjoying life and re-calibrating on what your wish list looks like for the next stage in your career. Let’s build your confidence.
Take a long view
A career transition is the perfect opportunity to think hypothetically about the next stages of your life and career beyond the next role you're targeting. As you visualize an ideal future, reflect on questions like:
-
What is my purpose?
-
What do I want to accomplish short term and long term?
-
What are my key timeline, career and life milestones?
-
Where will I live?
-
What is important to me between now and then?
-
Status on physical, mental, emotional, spiritual health
-
How does all of this impact what I want to accomplish now?
Bullseye Opportunity
I work with clients to create a wish list for their next role. This is an opportunity for them to design their next move and what the bullseye opportunity might look like, assessing factors like:
-
Type of Role
-
Company Culture
-
Size of Company
-
Location
-
Title
-
Compensation
-
Development
-
Lifestyle
Coaching Process
Phase 1: Assess
We’ll start by assessing your skills, capabilities and experience to remind you of who you are and what you're looking for. This will help us create clarity to focus on the ideal role for the future.
This is where the Hogan Assessment can be very helpful by reminding you of what your strengths are and what you value to develop personalized strategies to stay motivated.
What behaviors do you need to remind themselves that they might overuse during times of stress? How can you leverage your network and assets to accelerate success and build strong relationships to land and nail your next role? Let’s find out.
Phase 2: Customize
The program and individual sessions are customized based on where you are in your
process and where you want support, but some common focus areas include:
-
Designing your ideal role
-
Refreshing your resume and LinkedIn profile
-
Your networking pitch
-
How to use LinkedIn, Networking and
Target Lists to find opportunities -
Interview prep
-
Offer negotiation
-
Onboarding
Client Feedback
I'm so proud of my clients. Together we have achieved incredible success in executives landing and performing successfully in new roles by clarifying their goals, committing to the program and working hard to make it happen.
“Working with Christine was an absolute game-changer for my career trajectory. With her expert guidance and support, I not only secured a coveted job, I landed a role that is aligned with my purpose and the lifestyle I want to live. Christine also helped me build the confidence to recognize my value and negotiate a 54% increase in compensation.
I feel like I'm ready for anything"
"The thing I like about Christine is that she helps coach the whole person, not just the business side of things. She helps you find and bring your A game. Your mileage may vary, but within a few months of working with Christine, I landed a job with a 30% increase in salary! Not a bad ROI. It's obvious that her knowledge of the HR world is encyclopedic, but she never overwhelms you. Like an expert technician, she knows just how to pinpoint an issue and provide you with just the right information you need."
“It is difficult to imagine a more effective advisor than Christine for my career transition. She offered incredibly helpful advice and support through every phase of the process – initial resume development, comprehensive interview preparation and final offer negotiation. My scheduled sessions with Christine were always enjoyable and extremely helpful, and her open offer to text or call for impromptu advice proved to be invaluable given Christine’s impressive talent for strategic messaging. Christine’s genuine, personal approach made me feel as though I had a partner and a friend through the dynamic and often emotional process of career transition.”
