How I Encourage Others to Succeed as Their Career Coach

Do you ever wonder how sessions are conducted with a career coach?
Would you like to discover or rediscover your secret sauce on how to continue on your road to success?
Do you want to smile while reading this article?

If so, you are in the right place.  I am sharing some of the questions that I use as a career coach.  The idea is for you to ask yourself the same questions and see what answers appear.  Feel free to share this post with people who you feel could benefit from the content.  You can call or email me questions or concerns to explore if coaching is a good next step for you (or colleagues/relatives).  Are you ready for the questions?  Here we go! 🙂

Career Coach Question #1:  What Does Success Mean to You?

Obviously, there is no right or wrong answer.  The idea is for you to look inside so we can move forward.
Is it wealth, education, or a fulfilled life?  Your answer may change quite often in life.

Career Coach Question #2:  What Do You Own?

This question is a tough one to answer at first because I’m asking you to find what makes you unique.  How does this quality work for you?

I own the discipline to constantly learn and a desire to help others be the best that they can be.  Feeling less stress is always part of this equation.  🙂  Once you learn your secret sauce it’s easier to move forward.

As some of you know, keynote speaking used to be the main part of my career.  I discovered that my unique quality is listening to what people say, and ask them the deep questions for self-discovery.  It’s easier for me to accomplish my career goals as a career coach by working with people one on one or in small groups.  Keynote speaking didn’t give me the opportunity to help others go deeper.  It was a great part of my career for years.  I’m now enjoying this new direction because it’s natural for me.

Now back to you.  Do your best to find your own secret sauce.  You can call me (800.713.1926) to set up a free laser coaching session!  I love helping people.  You do know that by now…right?  😉

Career Coach Question # 3:  How Can You Be The Best That You Can Be?

The following quotes will get you started.

It’s all about…

• Looking for ways to constantly improve
• Being as curious as children to keep your energy going
• Finding role models to see how hard work pays off
