1. Set goals and build a roadmap for your career

Goal setting is essential to making progress in driving your career whether you are looking for a new job, wanting to grow within your current role and organization, or looking to pivot and do something new. A career coach can help you identify where you are headed and help you create the steps and accountability structures to get there and get there more quickly than you would on your own.

2. Get personalized coaching

Yes, there is a lot of career advice out there, but it will only get you so far. Each person’s situation and career path is unique, which is how a career coach really comes in handy. Each coaching session is designed to focus on YOU and your specific situation.

3. Build confidence

Let’s face it, you spend a lot of hours at work. When your career is out of sorts, so are you. The ups and downs of managing a career can range from completely energizing to taking a big toll on wellness and happiness. A coach helps you to focus on knowing your strengths and talents and building your brand and confidence.

4. Define your value proposition

Networking can seem hard, so people avoid it and instead keep applying for job after job via online application. A coach can assist you in identifying online and in-person networking strategies that you are most comfortable with.

6. Build a powerful and relevant resume
