coaching for what you need at every stage of your career
Career Planning and Strategy
Dig into what you really want from your career and develop a plan of action to get there. It's hard to get there when you don't know where you are going. Don't assume a company will give you career development or direction. Take control now from whatever point you are in your career.
Dealing with Gender Bias
Using your specific situation, learn to recognize bias and it's affect on your career. Devise approaches to diffuse gender bias and increase confidence in your own abilities. Bias is based in fear and often has roots in other people's insecurities. Once you see that it's not you, that clarity can open up the way forward that is more self-assured.
Soft Skills and Communication
STEM Professionals are often introverted. We struggle with soft skills like communication, empathy, collaboration and inclusion. Enhance your performance and have a positive effect on your career by learning what soft skill gaps you may have, and practicing techniques to enable yourself to interact more effectively with others.
Career and Life Transitions
Change is a constant in life. Changes to your career can be intentional or externally forced on you. When change happens it can be traumatic. Let's talk through how change affects you, what is right for you and what your next move looks like.
Job Change Support
Sometimes the the only option is to move on. Along with targeted coaching, get a resume/cover letter review, develop a job search strategy and get tips on putting your best forward. Get help evaluating opportunities and offers, based on your career goals and strategy.
Networking Strategies
Get guidance to build a strong professional network. Learn how to identify and reach out to key connections, develop a networking plan, and get feedback on your approach.
Work Life Balance
Companies today demand more and more of your time and energy and give less in return. If you are struggling to balance career aspirations, family needs or other life goals, it can be very stressful. You may feel overwhelmed. Let's break down your priorities and develop strategies to give you the balance you need.
For the Executive STEM Woman
Climbing the ladder can put you in an environment fraught with barriers and landmines. Obstacles such as the Glass Ceiling, the Glass Cliff and even the Glass Microscope all pose unique challenges for STEM Women. Learn to recognize these situations and plan your route to minimize the influences.
Retirement Planning
Many STEM professionals overstay in their career simply because they don't have a strategy for winding down an intense and successful career. You may feel like you will be bored, or useless without the technical stimulation and interaction the job gives you. Let's talk through the changing priorities and bring what you really want into focus. Retirement is not the end, it is simply a new beginning.
