Career Coaching
Individual Coaching
What do you want to be when you grow up? Where are you now? Have you thought about what the next 1, 3, 5 years of your professional life can or could be? What if you had one person devoted to your success? Are you struggling with advancement? Do you just need a change? Are you reacting more emotionally lately and cannot seem to find balance? Are you aware that changes need to be made but honestly, you just don’t know where to begin? A coach can assist you with all of the above and along with you, will develop a plan to identify what next steps you really want to take.
Executive Coaching
Are you currently in a mid or senior level position? Is that where you want to be? What is your next challenge? How will you get there? Who have you surrounded yourself with? What tools do you still need in your toolbox to continue to grow and strengthen your organization? What would your colleagues say about your leadership style? Your staff? Your Boss? Would you work for you? What if you never had to work for money…would you stay where you are today? Investing in a coach, investing in yourself or your executives is a proven and clear competitive advantage to continue along the path of success.
Student/Young Careerist Coaching
Have you spent a fortune on your child’s education and have concern over their professional future? Is he or she ready for “the real world of employment”? How will they get the internship or first job they want and need? Does your child look at you like you have no clue when you try and give him or her career advice? High-school seniors and current college students can benefit greatly by having a coach to support their transition to adult-hood. A seasoned executive who will discuss their future with them objectively and who has helped to develop hundreds of successful individuals could be just what your son or daughter needs. Why not give them the gift of advantage, independence and creation of their own path?
Are you putting yourself through school on your own and wondering how you will differentiate yourself when it is time to get a real job? You have had part-time jobs, summer internships and a 4.0…you are a solid employment candidate but you are worried and wish you could seek advice from an objective person who has been there? You have been working for a year or two and want to take the next step…should you pursue additional education, look toward advancement in your current company or look for opportunities externally? Consider coaching to assist you in creating a plan, your plan!
Team Coaching
Is your team not achieving its goals? What is the right size for an effective team? Should there be more than one leader? What are the goals? Did the words timeline and deadline go by the wayside a long time ago? How do teams work together? Sounding Board 4 Life, LLC can conduct an onsite assessment and provide clear and concise feedback designed to improve team efficiency and spirit.
Professional Development
Resume Assessment
Your resume is the first document summarizing your educational and experiential background that a potential employer sees. It usually provides the first opportunity for you to market yourself. However, it can be the beginning of the end if not handled correctly. The goal of your resume is to attain interviews, which will hopefully lead to job offers – when was the last time you even looked at your resume? Do you even have a resume? Has your current resume been getting little to no response? Email your resume today! Sounding Board 4 Life, LLC will review your resume and help you to develop a current and professional tool to get you noticed!
Interview Prep
You have one chance to make that important professional connection. How do you present you? Are you shy? Are you aware of your body language? Are you prepared for the plethora of “interview formats”: telephone, panel, multi-round, solo or c-suite? What should you never ask during an interview? What attire should you wear? Let Sounding Board 4 Life, LLC conduct a Mock interview with you over the telephone or face to face and provide valuable feedback aimed at enhancing you!
Presentation Prep
So you can write…but can you speak? Does your delivery “sparkle”? How is your diction? Bad speaking habits can kill a presentation within the first 2 minutes. Effective verbal communication is an integral part of success and professional growth. How do you keep your audience interested? What should you wear? Should you hold anything? How about those slides…if you can’t read them…neither can the audiences. What happens if the AV goes out? How can you relax? Sounding Board 4 Life, LLC can assist you with your next presentation and help you to feel more confident about being a winner!
Time Management
In today’s professional environment everyone must to do more with less time. The mantra is all about efficiency and effectiveness. Neither you nor your organization can afford to waste one minute of time and maintain a competitive edge. Learn how to set priorities and actually stick to the plan, create movement in a non-functioning team and be the catalyst for success.
