Named Top 3 Career Coach in Charlotte, NC by Influence Digest
I don't believe in traditional training. I am a certified trainer, and I can tell you that traditional training does not work.
Training is destined not to work, and that is all the brain's fault. The brain needs hands-on practice, repetition, reinforcement, and application to consolidate new learning.
My workshops have engaging activities so everyone can contribute. The participants do exercises, engage in immediate actions, learn from their peers, role-play, and have takeaways to implement post-session.
We create space for meaningful conversations and personal reflection.
Duration: 90-minute to 120-minute facilitated workshops.
Multiple workshops can be combined to create a holistic program.
Why: Our brain gets into a paralyzing mode when it hears we are being delivered feedback. Focusing the conversation on the future instead of the past allows the brain to hear the message better.
Outcome: Participants will learn how to turn feedback intro feedforward.
How: Participants will work individually and in small groups to practice feedforward.
Best for: Professionals who want to have better conversations with their colleagues and support them to become better at what they do.
Why: When you think you don’t have options, you might give up hope, but you do have the power to create and expand your options.
Outcome: Participants will have practical strategies to help them create and expand the options available so they never get stuck or lost again.
How: Participants will work individually and in small groups to practice the option creation strategies they learned in the session.
Best for: Professionals who are stuck or lost in a limited options story and might need to realize they have the power to create and expand their options.
Why: People who know their values are more committed and motivated in their private lives and at work and have more clarity in their decision-making process.
Outcome: Participants will examine their values, define them, and learn how to use them in their day-to-day lives.
How: Participants will work individually and in small groups to practice verbalizing their values.
Best for: Professionals at any stage of their career who want to define the core of who they are and learn a simple decision-making tool.
Why: People with a broad and diverse network are exposed to more opportunities, knowledge, and support.
Outcome: Participants will learn and practice when to network, how to activate dormant connections and create new ones, and how to build value for others and themselves.
How: Participants will work individually and in small groups to build new connections and/or deepen existing connections.
Best for: Busy professionals who don’t have time to go to networking events, and for introverts who dread networking events.
Why: People who are intentional about their career path are less likely to invest time and energy haphazardly.
Outcome: Participants will learn how to broaden their career options, how to make an informed decision about their career path, and how to move forward in that direction.
How: Participants will work individually and in small groups to share their options and get feedback.
Best for: Professionals considering a career change and want to think more strategically about their steps.
Why: People who are self-aware about their preferences and have information about their options are more likely to be satisfied with their jobs and organizations.
Outcome: Participants will learn and explore the advantages and disadvantages of working in consulting, corporate, entrepreneurship, and academia.
How: Participants will work individually and in small groups to discuss their preferences.
Best for: Students who are pre-graduating, early career, or mid-career employees considering a career change.
