My career coaching philosophy is deeply rooted in my own experience at college when it came to identifying a career that would provide a high level of job satisfaction.
This experience became the foundation for how I recruited and hired college students and other employees from all levels of the organization.
I leverage over 20 years of recruiting and hiring experience to provide you a very unique perspective from the "recruiter’s side of the desk” on how to attract the attention of employers.
I’ll invest more time developing a deeper coaching relationship compared to what you may experience at your university's career center.
I'll serve as your 24x7 personal coach throughout the semester, or on selected topics you choose, to help you

successfully navigate the semester/year long, anxiety filled job search process. I've done a significant amount of research on what motivates Millennials like you to accept a job offer.
As you know, not all of the motivators apply to you so it's critical to understand what perceptions older generations have about Millennials, and how to distance yourself from those that don't relate to you. In turn, it's also important to take into consideration what perceptions you might have of older generations.
Prior to pursuing my passion for coaching university students, I spent over 20 years recruiting and hiring over 2,500 individuals from all levels of the organization.

The Millennial’s values heavily contrast the values of prior generations. Their values reflect the world that we live in today. “Millennials are, arguably, the most reviled generation in recent history, and armies of consultants are hustling to decipher them.” (Ellin) This quote gives
In my junior year of high school, I joined the leadership program called ASB, also known as associated student body. I had the honor and role of being the school’s unofficial videographer to promote events with videos and short films posted on our social media sites because of my passion for video editing and artistic abilities. I also became responsible as being chairman for one of our committees to organize special recognition events for our senior athletes. ASB made my work stressful and challenging, but it was a good way to connect with others.
Time can always be found through good planning and time management, remember a coached person offers more to the company. Once a time is agreed both parties need to commit to it! Perhaps arranging the coaching session when the company is quieter or even after hours will help maintain good time
A proper coaching philosophy contains principles which improve character development, teach step by step tactical and technical skills, form proper progressive physical training regimens, and carefully utilize team management to handle and control problems with administrative issues. A coach with a sound philosophy should mold a team with strong cohesion, and he should treat players not only as teammates, but as family and friends who are encouraged to develop communication and lifelong learning of skills through positive support and role modeling from the coach (Mergelsberg, 14-15). The philosophy should also contain written documents of implemented strategies and techniques, so that the coach will know what to improve upon season by season
The author shows how coaching differs from counseling. To start with, Collins supposes that counseling focuses on negative psychology that includes dealing with conflicts, spiritual struggles, and emotional matters like depression, while coaching focuses on improving team-building and performance, career growth and finding fulfillment (2009). According Collins, counseling fixes what is wrong, while coaching enables individuals to reach their goals. Coaching is centered on the present and future likelihood, getting unstuck and attaining the set goals, while counseling is centered on causes of the problems that are as a result of the past, and attaining healing and stability.

Analyzing career theory is an important task, not only as an individual but also on a large scale. If everyone has the career they are best at and enjoy above all others, the world would be a much happier place. Imagine a world where each individual viewed work as not something they have to do, but as something they want to do. Productivity would increase at all levels. Charitable foundations and businesses would be abundant. Whereas this ideal may not be fathomable at this point, if each person used this information, it would be only a matter of time before we are moving in that harmonious direction.

One can gain a deeper understanding of him/herself, gain information on education and careers, gain sills in decision-making, gain support in conducting a job search or applying to higher education, and gain support coping with career transitions (NCDA, “Why Seek Career Counseling, 2007).

Choosing a career can be an overwhelming experience, one may be plagued with concerns over making the incorrect career choice, being stuck in a certain field, or splurging on the incorrect major in college. While one has to make that decision on their own, there are certain tools that could help someone make that choice. One tool is career theories. There are many different theories on career choice and development, and they each have valid points. However, the two theories that I found resonated the most with my own experiences of occupational choice and development are Rhoes theories, and Super’s theory. Rhoe’s theory suggests that there is a strong correlation between a person’s childhood experiences, and how to they choose
...y own personal development, I plan to attend further coaching training courses, one of these courses is, MAGIC coaching. This is a course run by the Coaching Academy and it teaches the following variation of the GROW model: Motivation, Assertiveness, Goal achievement, Initiative and Confident communication. This variation of coaching is focused more towards young people, and would therefore fit with my aspirations for the future. I would also be interested in attending a basic level course in NLP, as I believe this particular method will also benefit my coaching with young people.
