Career Coaching Provides Career Help That’s Like Rocket Fuel!
Watch Your Career Soar When You Get Career Help
What is one thing that successful athletes, entrepreneurs & executives have in common? They get career help by work with a coach. What these folks know is that when you dedicate yourself to learning your craft combined with personal transformation … BAM … that’s where the magic happens!
How Does Coaching Give You the Career Help You Need?
Career coaching is a creative, collaborative relationship between you and your Coach where you create strategies and sustainable career goals that support where you want to go. We use the 3 IAM Maps to guide and anchor our work so you can easily stay focused on the journey and the destination.
We begin with an intake process where we determine together the intention of our work, your career goals, and what success would look like for both of us. We use a few simple, easy career assessments to help you get clear about who you are at your best; this also helps us understand you because there is no one else just like you. Then we create a plan of action, tailored to meet your goals.
How is Career Coaching Different from Career Counseling?
The difference between career coaching and career counseling is subtle. There are numerous career counseling models, some of which are similar to career coaching, but there is definitely a difference. Here’s how we see it: career counselors focus on the job & how to find it. Career coaching focuses on you - who you are at your best, what you want, where you are going and why, and how you will get there.
Can You Help Me Find a Job?
Many of our clients have enhanced their careers or found new careers during our work together, but we’re not recruiters or headhunters. If you are in our geographic area, there is a possibility we could help you get connected, but that would just be a bonus.
Through coaching and mentoring, the career help we provide guides you to create sustainable, effective strategies where you can be your best. You make career choices that are a great fit for who you are and where you work. We look at work as a place where you create your own version of art. Isn’t that better than simply “finding a job”?

I Want Career Help, but I’m Not Sure I Can Afford It.
First of all, career coaching is an investment in yourself and your career. If you’re the type of person who invests in a healthy lifestyle (such as food, travel, finance, learning, fitness, technology, community, family), you’ll easily see the value of working with a coach.
We bring a ton of value to our career coaching sessions … and we’re doing our absolute best to make it affordable. Some people want individualized career help, and it just makes sense to work with an IAM Career Coach, depending on your situation.
If you’re going through IAM Career SMART! Online Development, adding a few sessions with a trained career coach would give you a big boost. Since we designed the program, we’re uniquely qualified to give you the career help you need.
We also offer career help through IAM Career SMART! Group Coaching. In this program you get (you guessed it), group coaching through weekly teleconferences. You also receive online coaching throughout the entire program.
Here’s an example of how we provided career help to one of our clients:
Amy* was likely getting laid off from her job as an engineering manager. As the sole breadwinner in her family, she needed to find something quickly. However, Amy didn’t panic. We began the career coaching process & it wasn’t long before Amy discovered a career that integrated her talents, values, passions & preferences. We put together a plan she was excited about & things began to fall into place. Through her new network, she wound up pitching an idea at one of her top 3 companies of choice. They liked her & her ideas so much, they created a job for her … during a recession. Amy now has global responsibility for her product line; she’s getting great feedback from senior management, and she’s doing exactly what she loves.
