Career Direction
If you aren’t sure about the type of career or work you want, I can help you develop a clear direction through assessing your skills, accomplishments, values, interests, and work style. We’ll work together to identify career options and opportunities that are right for you. Then we’ll build an action plan to help you realize your goals.

Develop the organizational, communication or leadership skills you need
Uncover any sources of dissatisfaction and develop a strategy and plan for improvement
Find and develop relationships with potential mentors and supportive co-workers

Strategic Job Search
If you’re already clear about the work you want to do but need to find a new opportunity, I can help you design and conduct a strategic job search. We’ll collaborate to:

Develop a results-oriented resume, cover letters and work portfolio
Prepare and practice for interviews
Create a plan for developing job leads and uncovering hidden opportunities
Navigate the salary negotiation process to gain the compensation you deserve

Self-Employment
In today's rapidly changing work environment, there are rich opportunities for self-employment as a consultant, contractor, or entrepreneur. I can help you explore these choices and determine if they are a good fit. If they are, I will introduce you to the resources available to get you started on a path to success.

Professional Development
Ensuring your employability requires active career management and a commitment to professional development. I’ll assist you in gathering feedback to pinpoint your strengths and identify areas for improvement. Then we’ll set goals and create a professional development plan to help you become more confident, competitive and employable.

Retirement Planning
A successful retirement involves consideration of financial resources as well as planning for an active lifestyle that fulfills your goals for learning, enjoyment, and contribution. I can help you create a plan for a meaningful and rewarding retirement.
