Accelerate your Executive Career
The strategy is everything!
ACMA executive career coaches objectively assess their clients’ education, training, and experience and identify the best options for their career development or transition. This can be a fascinating process, as it involves rediscovering skills and strengths in a new light, finding possibilities that are often surprising. The ACMA executive career coach will pinpoint effective ways to develop your career or enter new fields, clarifying and refining any further training needed to market the client directly to prospective employers.
Assess the client. The executive career coach will help determine the industries and positions that suit the client at that point in their career. Brainstorm work ideas. This is the fun part–career coaches shake their clients up, awakening them to new ideas and encouraging them to think creatively about their work possibilities.
Determine the desired path. The coach and client work together to decide on particular career pathways and strategise how to reach these new goals.
Develop qualifications. Often, the client will be coached on where and how to develop the training and skills needed to achieve their career goals. The consultant will help create an educational plan to achieve these qualifications.
Value proposition: Clearly demonstrate to employers and recruiters your unique value, offering and potential to the market.
Career mapping: "Where do I see myself in five years?” In an age of entrepreneurship, you may be drawn to the idea of launching your own business. Or maybe you aspire to an executive position in an existing, successful company. But how do you get there? It is not a straight pathway.
Develop professional connections and experience. The client will need to make targeted connections in appropriate sectors. The career coach will know where to start the often-confusing task of seeking positions that may be “hidden” or unknown to the client.
Support the transition through to final placement. It can be tricky–not to mention scary–to change a work routine without disrupting one’s life, which is why so many people stay in one position for so long. Executive career coaches make their clients comfortable with the transition period by developing action plans and conducting regular reviews to keep the job search on track and to maximise your opportunities.
