You mentioned “identify and utilize the very best resources to gain knowledge and confidence to take the best steps forward.” What do you mean by that?
There are some great tools out there! I am certified in MBTI which is a personality assessment that has SO MUCH value–it enables us to better understand our approach to work and people, how we communicate, where we get our energy, and what drains us! Sometimes that’s a good starting place.
I’m also certified to administer the Strong Interest Inventory which is an incredible career exploration tool. This assessment often can help people identify direction for their work AND extracurricular pursuits in order to maximize their own fulfillment.
Strengthsfinder is another tool I have worked with and love.
I love the above tools because they provide great shortcuts to self-awareness, and self-awareness is associated with:
I have brought in other resources and books specific to client needs when they will specifically help to foster growth and forward momentum.
Knowledge brings confidence and confidence gives us courage to take positive steps!
What exactly is a "discovery call"?
Great question! Coaching is a significant undertaking–requiring an investment of time, energy, and effort as well as money, and it is important that we determine Flight Deck will be a good fit for you before we get started!
Prior to your 15-minute discovery call, you will provide me with a bit of background information so we can maximize our time together. You will receive some questions and prompts to help me understand areas you are interested in working on and any goals you have identified.
During our call, we can get a feel for one another and decide if 1:1 coaching is a good fit for both parties.
I Iove the outline for Personality Deep Dive but am currently working through some career exploration and would like to be more specific? Could I take that class as a coaching client 1:1?
YES! The exciting thing about 1:1 coaching is the opportunity to personalize the experience. MBTI has GREAT insight for career with specialized reports and other resources available. Additionally, though, I often use MBTI in conjunction with the Strong Interest Inventory, which is a much more specific career assessment, and other great books and resources as well. All of this can be tailored to your specific needs and questions.
Outcomes for prior clients have included "dream job descriptions", values and mission statements, prioritized lists of favorite skills, work environments, people, etc.
