Coaching Transformation Story
Imagine working at one company for most of your career - and life - and then being released into the wide open world of the job market, wondering what to do?!
That’s what Graham’s story was - after 27 years at a single company the idea of starting afresh, not knowing in what direction to go in, yet wanting to make sure he didn’t make mistakes from the past.
Hear his story below.
Background:
Graham had worked at a single organisation for 27 years in the aerospace industry in various roles from commercial, leadership running various business units, to product, he was ripe for change.
Problem:
Graham came to me after he had left a company he had been at for 27 years! Wanting support with his next career move to ensure it was fulfilling and aligned, whilst creating balance in his life to continue focusing on his family and health. He was conscious of not getting into past patterns of over-focusing on his work at the expense of his relationships and health.
How/Solution:
We worked together on various exercises to become clear in his next career move starting with a reflective practice that would help him get crystal clear on what did and didn’t work for him in his previous job, whilst balancing this with what he actually wanted that was in full alignment with his family, health and career goals.
Results:
By becoming really clear in what was important to him, including what he didn’t want, he was able to intuitively know this was the kind of company he wanted to work for. Not only did he get the job after 4 coaching sessions, but he was able to negotiate his salary to what he wanted which was significantly higher than his previous job, even after HR said no we can’t do that! He communicated “This is my worth” and they came back and matched his expectations. He said he wouldn’t have a) had an awareness of what he wanted but also b) had the confidence to ask for his salary expectation if he hadn’t done the work and had the guidance throughout the process.
