Coaching a client seeking a career change
One to One Coaching Example
An example of Philip supporting a client that was not satisfied within his current role and wanted to secure a promotion.
​
M stated that he would like to see himself with more strategic responsibility. Philip informed M that the average salary for his job is £25,800. M proceeded to state that he felt his salary was low. He explained that the College was a failing institution. M stated he was not happy about this. I asked M where he would like to see himself in 12 months and he replied it was to have a better salary than his current wage. He stated this was his first objective.
​
Philip summed up the resources available to M including the STAR technique, YouTube and Prospects. Philip suggested M would probably be looking for a like for like role. M stated that he doesn’t currently maximise the potential within his role. Philip stated my belief that 90% of what M is doing is sensible.
The class that Philip presented to covered the following objectives;
​
-
Raised awareness of how to succeed in an interview situation
-
Described different ways to prepare for an interview
-
Identified the difference between positive and negative body language
-
Gave examples of questions which may arise in an interview situation
