CAREER MANAGEMENT
SERVICES
A Complete Strategy for Success
If you are one of the following, WE CAN HELP.
Just
beginning to think about a career, but uncertain about
what you are suited for or how to get a good job.
Working,
but feeling unfulfilled or out-of-place in your current
position.
Clearly
desiring a new career, but unable to make a confident
career decision and structure a job-finding campaign.
A casualty
of reorganization, without a sense of what to do or where
to turn.
Settled in
your career, but recognizing that a coach might be the
perfect resource to help you be more effective in your
role.
At AC4C, we help people make informed career
decisions and guide them through the intricate steps that
may be involved to reach their goals – whether that means to
gain new careers that suit them well or to function optimally in
their chosen careers. We draw on many years of being
accomplished counselors, having the right assessment tools for
our job,
knowing the employment trends, and understanding corporate
America.
A Range of Services
Three types of service are available: Career Options, Personal
Marketing, and Executive Coaching. Each one is designed with
your success in mind.
Career Options …
One-on-one consultations and testing to explore your interests,
personality, professional attributes, personal
competencies, psychological needs,
behavioral interaction effects, unique abilities, social
qualities, personal values, and past work experiences. All of these areas
contribute, and bring you and your counselor to specific
vocational implications. Armed with this information, career
options become clear.
Personal Marketing …
Once a career direction takes shape, we help you plot the strategic steps that lead to your career goal. This
could include preparation of your self-marketing materials
(cover letters, resumes, portfolios, etc.), researching
appropriate jobs, networking effectively, utilizing the
resources of the internet and other media, tapping into the
unpublished job market, and gaining guided practice toward
self-presentation during
interviews.
Executive Coaching …
Very often, capable and well-placed individuals wisely
choose to optimize their effectiveness as they build their
careers. Executive coaching, which is insightful and
data-driven, is then contracted for. Both structured and
impromptu contacts are arranged.
You might be tempted to ask “Is it worth
it? What is the return on investment (ROI) for this coaching?
One
particular study stands out. Between 1987 and 1997 executives at the AMOCO Corporation, which is now part
of British Petroleum (BP) were coached. The study found that “compared
to other AMOCO managers, the coached participants consistently
demonstrated improved performance, increased ratings of
potential for advancement, and 50% higher average salary
increases. Moreover, the participants themselves attributed
these results directly to the coaching they had received.” (Birkeland
et al., 1997, p.15)
A Service You Can
Afford
A guiding motto at AC4C is “DO MORE THAN EXPECTED”. All of the
career management services are charged either hourly or
contracted for at attractive rates. Others in this field often charge a high one-price-for-all
amount, while failing to attend to individual needs and
circumstances. Guiding
our policy is the principle that every person has individual needs
according to his/her place in their journey. We encourage participation in the whole career
management program, but individuals can plug in at any level
that meets their personal need and fulfills their objectives.
Comprehensive Career Management Services are currently
