Career and Professional Coaching

Coaching is undertaken to bring out the best in people. The first use of the word in the English language was in reference to a particular kind of carriage. Hence, the basic meaning is to “convey a valued person from where he or she is to where he or she wants to be.”

Through personalized one-on-one coaching, our custom tailored program takes you on a journey where you clarify your long-term goals in a specific three-year plan for your business, career and personal life. The program makes extensive use of workbooks, tools and technologies to maximize the value received and minimize your time commitment.

You will understand the power of focusing on your talents and the activities that have made you successful. And, you will develop the habit of staying in a positive mental zone over 90-day periods where you have set and achieved specific business and personal goals. The program also helps you tap into extended resources to achieve your goals.

The Balanced WorkLife Program™ is a high value proposition that optimizes the time investment you make to produce visible progress every 90 days. We achieve this through quarterly modules that focus on specific dimensions of balance, creation of long- and short-term written goals, and regular accountability follow-up meetings—face-to-face or telephone/web.

Is Coaching For You?

An on-going study of 120 executives and managers at Boeing (The Waypoint Project) indicates that executives are more likely to achieve their long-term goals if they find someone who will help them hold themselves accountable. The secret is to share your goals and dreams with that person and set up regular times to meet and discuss your progress.

If you…

  • Are working your hardest but not progressing in your career as fast as you’d like
  • Feel your personal growth has stalled
  • Are not sure which careers match your passions
  • Feel stuck in a dead end job
  • Have a dream in life, but need coaching to get there…

…then we can help you. Our company provides an unfair advantage in the game of life through the expertise of our executive and professional coaches.

We have the experience, networks, and tools to help everyone from the CEO to the knowledge worker find balance in their life and reach their ultimate potential.

At The Balanced WorkLife Company we take a holistic approach to working with our clients. Most people are trying desperately to balance within and between three main areas of their life: their job, their career, and their quality of life.

Therefore, it is critical that they:

  • On the Job:
    • Balance their time between strategic and operational endeavors.
    • Focus their greatest energy on their strengths and find ways to compensate for their limitations.
  • For their Career:
    • Recognize that jobs are “temporary” assignments; balance their focus between their current job and planning for their next one.
    • Focus on developing and maintaining an extended network. The time to build contacts is not when you are looking for the next position.
  • For their Quality of Life:
    • Balance their time between themselves, their family and their friends.
    • Focus on health and fitness so that they walk, not wheel themselves, into their 90th birthday party.
    • Balance their spending between instant gratification and long-term financial security.

Through the use of structured listening, personal and team assessments and specific tools and modules, our programs attend to each of these three areas thus ensuring that our clients are optimizing their unique opportunities and challenges.
