Career Coaching with Meg Burton
What will you be doing at 10 o'clock tomorrow?
Will you be caring for someone studying, fulfilling your vocation in a voluntary capacity, relaxing or working?
And if you are in a job, how do you feel about it?
How do you feel about where you are now, and the direction of travel your career is taking you?
There are various reasons why we might want to stop and take stock of where we are in our job or career reasons. There’s the threat of a burning platform. The road you are standing on is about to be engulfed by redundancy or business reorganisation.
Or perhaps you are at a crossroads. A new work opportunity has opened up which is, in itself, attractive. But if you pursue that opportunity you create challenges in other areas such as with your family or location.
Or maybe you feel more like you are at a roadblock. You can’t see where your career is going, you feel like you’re outgrowing your job, or you don’t have the opportunity to use the many skills and talents you have developed.
What do you do in these taking stock moments?
Geoff's guest today is leadership and career coach Meg Burton. With Meg we explore these questions, and how Meg works with clients to address them. We draw on her combined expertise of career mentoring approaches developed in various corporate environments, and her broad and deep expertise in coaching underpinned by extensive training. Join me as, with Meg, I work through a practical exercise illustrating a way of engaging with, and moving on from, your own taking stock career moment.
