When you schedule a career strategy session, we’ll do these three things together

1. Schedule a career strategy session and identify your #1 most important goal.

The first thing we’re going to do is identify your #1 Priority by looking at the three most important areas of your life:

  1. Your personal goals.
  2. Your professional goals
  3. Your financial goals.

By the way, that number one goal, as we look in those three areas of your life, we’ll likely find that one area will push forward the other two areas as well. One area will naturally drive everything else.

2. Schedule a career strategy session and overcome your barriers to success.

The second thing we’ll do is identify the #1 thing holding you back in that area and maybe in the rest of your life, too.

We’re also likely going to find that we can eliminate what’s blocking you — often, just seeing it will immediately enable you to make it go away or manage it so it doesn’t become a problem.

Seeing it, and awareness of it, is often enough to get you past the thing that will stop you — or has been stopping you — from achieving your #1 most important goal.

3. Schedule a career strategy session and create a personalized strategic plan.

The third thing we’ll do is create a plan and a path for you to achieve your 12-month goal.

Also, we’ll create that plan so that nothing can stop you.

About me

I’ve been stuck and unsatisfied several times in my career and changed careers three times. Sometimes, my boss or team members were difficult.

Looking back and being honest, sometimes I was the problem.

More precisely, my misunderstanding or inability to see the whole picture was the problem In response to my misunderstanding or lack of context, I sometimes reacted in ways that didn’t work well for me or my team.

How I knew I needed to make a change

As I saw myself passed over for promotions four times in three years — always passed over by a peer — I got serious about understanding what was holding me back.

During that time, my home life was in shambles and my troubled marriage was melting down.

I knew I was doing something that I needed to stop, or I wasn’t doing something that I needed to start.

I was drinking too much, overweight, and my doctor was threatening to put me on medication to address my expanding health issues.

What I saw as I continued my journey

As I worked with counselors, therapists, coaches, doctors, and eventually attorneys, as I participated in AA, Weight Watchers, Landmatk Worldwide, and numerous professional development and certification programs, many things became clear. I’d been:

  1. Helping other people achieve their goals and chronically ignoring my own.
  2. Tolerating poor quality relationships at my own expense, not creating and managing win-win relationships
  3. Not taking care of myself, not taking care of others, not managing healthy boundaries.
  4. Suffering all over my life due to unclear priorities and goals, and a resulting failure to manage boundaries.
  5. Not taking the lead or taking responsibility, trying to ignore and avoid the areas that weren’t working.

My breakthrough

When I committed to having fantastic relationships and being a leader in all areas of my life, I got promoted and picked to lead teams, I met an amazing woman who trained me for my first two marathons and still inspires me today, and I lost 50 pounds and became a triathlete for fun.

Why we’re here today

I created the Career Acceleration Roadmap to help others shorten and fast-track their time to clarity and confidence in their own careers.

I want others to be able to skip the decades of frustration and confusion I experienced, and get the results and satisfaction they want in only a handful of months.

Here’s why you should schedule a strategy session with me

In preparation for this call, I’ve:

  • Invested over a thousand hours in being coached and being trained as a coach.
  • Spent hundreds of hours in therapy, AA, and other personal development activities and programs.
  • Interviewed more than 3,000 people in a professional capacity.
  • Worked more than 30 years, first as a recruiter and later as a professional manager in some of the biggest and most successful companies in the world.

I learned all the things we’ll apply in this conversation to make the biggest difference in helping you take your life from where you are to where you want to grow.

At the end of our session, should we desire to work together, I’ll share opportunities about how we might do that, targeted to your specific needs and goals.
