Career Counselling: Career Foundations

We believe you will excel as a person when you do something you love for a living.  After all, you spend most of your waking day at work. 

The problem many people face is discovering what that "something" is.  Some even find that the career they once loved has now become a chore.

A truly satisfying career isn't a job that just brings in the money.  Nor is it about doing what you're capable of.  It is about doing your life's work.

A fulfilling career isn't built overnight.  It can take hard work, tenacity, a certain panache, clear vision, purposeful planning and a willingness to go after what you want. 

But it can also come naturally and easily when you love what you do.

If you are willing to pursue a career that you are passionate about and reap the rewards that come with it, Clever Fox can assist.

 Career Foundations is a career counselling program suitable for individuals who are open to retraining.  This program gets you started on your journey to discovering a fulfilling career.

What Does Career Foundations Provide?

• Personal guidance through a structured process designed to help you identify suitable careers
• 3 sessions (each lasting between 60 and 90 minutes), face-to-face or over the telephone with Kathleen Alexander
• Discover what motivates you at a deeper level so you can choose careers that match your inner drivers
• Get clear about criteria that are important to you in a career
• Define career options that fit in with your life goals
• Develop an action plan to start you in a career change
• Access to Harrison Assessments, a top end career assessment used internationally that measures over 200 of your personal traits and preference, well over the industry standard.
• A Career Report that lists potential careers that match your profile, each with a suitability score.  
• A customised personal profile relating to your career development.  It includes your task preference, interests, preferred work environment, interpersonal skills, motivation, leadership skills and decision making skills.
• A report which compares specific traits that will help or deter you from success in a careeryou choose from the assessment results. 
• Summary of each session emailed to you so you don't have to take notes.  This means you can focus entirely on the coaching session itself.

Testimonial:

"I attended the career coaching program with an open mind knowing I was going to get something useful out of the experience.  I had no idea what career direction to take and my head was full of a million ideas. As Kathleen and I worked together, I began to form a clear understanding of what was important to me in a working environment, a clear direction which careers would cater to most if not all of my needs and wants, and what I was willing to do to achieve my goals. 

The experience allowed me to think outside the square to exceed my own expectations.  I have since chosen a career path and am motivated to do whatever it takes to achieve my goals"  S. Wilson

What this program isn't...

• We don't look at your past roles to tell you what you should pursue in the future.  That would be like trying to drive forward by looking at your rear view mirror.  This program is designed to facilitate you in discovering new options that fit your life goals, motivations, values, principles and personality.

• We don't find jobs for you.  Employment consultants and recruiters are best suited to that role.  We specialise in helping your discover answers to nagging questions such as "What careers can I be passionate about?  What would suit my personality?"

Cost:

$690 for 3 private coaching sessions, assessments, reports and summary of each session.  Save $60.  (The Harrison Assessment component, priced at $180 if purchased separately, is included at a discounted rate).
