What is a Career Coach?

A career coach acts as a teacher, mentor, and counselor to help you achieve your goals. The specific guidance I offer changes to reflect the needs of the client, the current stage of their career, and their work landscape. Generally, these are some of the topics I cover with most clients:

Developing leadership skills.
Contributing to company culture.
Identifying strengths and weaknesses.
Building meaningful relationships.
Creating an actionable career plan.
Encouraging action and success.

Stuck at Helpdesk?

Have you been working helpdesk for more than a year? Many employees feel stuck at low-paying helpdesk jobs. I want to offer you my expert advice on breaking free from the helpdesk and into a more interesting and exciting role. Contact me to discuss the next steps in your career.

Want to be a Manager?

Breaking the management barrier is difficult but not impossible. I did it, I've helped others, and I can help you. The key is to realize that management requires an entirely different skill set than your current job. I can help you develop those skills and achieve your career goals.

My Clients

I'm looking for clients who have a career in the IT industry and want to earn a promotion with their current company. I feel this is the person who I'm best suited to help. I understand that many people need help finding a new job, but navigating the job market is not my area of expertise. My experience is centered around building your personal brand and reputation within your current company and putting you on the fast track to a promotion. If that sounds like you, let's talk!

Why Me

I started my IT career in 1998, and it continues to this day. I still work full-time as an IT Director working in local government. This means I have extensive experience in the information technology field, and I'm actively keeping up with current trends and technologies. Many other career coaches either retired years ago, or their careers failed, and they took up coaching to pay the bills. My ongoing IT career experience and proven coaching methods will help you achieve your goals.

Common Questions

Do you offer free coaching sessions?

Unfortunately, no. My time is limited and when choosing between offering free sessions and spending more time with my family, I choose my family.

How much does coaching cost?

Everyone has different needs, but a typicall coaching agreement will cost $1000 per month last between three and nine months.

Can I purchase a single coaching session?

I don't believe I can provide meaningful guidance with just one coaching session. The coaching process requires a commitment of time and effort from both parties to be successful. I typically wont take on new clients for anything less than a 1-month commitment.

Do you gaurantee results?

As your coach I will teach you what you need to know and encourage you to take action, but it is you who has to put in the work to achieve the results you desire. So no, I can't gaurantee results.
