During our time together you took me from a state of disillusion and, I’ll admit it, some despair, to a point where I felt confident and purposeful in my search. What you did was tease out the best in me, and you not only unearthed those qualities that can make me an asset to any organization, but that you put them to work. Success. What a feeling! Today will be a good day. Today I start at my new position as VP External Relations!
The networking sessions, introductions, and coaching all helped put my emotion on the shelf and get to work in concrete steps that move things forward to a positive outcome.
I’m so glad I decided that my career was worth it. Looking for a job is hard work at a very stressful time in your life, but having Linda as a Career Coach kept the process focused and positive. She was well prepared for our meetings, had a specific agenda and made each session time well spent. My one big regret was that I spent the first six months thinking I could do it myself.
You were the port in the storm that helped me organize, and make some big decisions. On top of the value I derived from all of your sessions – your organization, attention to detail and firm but fun direction makes working with you great!
A career search is really many parts – it’s tactical, it’s emotional, it’s focused, and it’s personal. You addressed all of those things with such a positive, engaging, and skillful manner that I knew very quickly that success was all but guaranteed – as you strive for that yourself and in turn push your clients to achieve it. Your process and diligence for facilitating a successful search was brilliant! We went down a set path together, yet one that you were flexible with and catered to me specifically, and the results were quantifiable each step of the way.
I wanted to extend my sincerest “Thanks” for all your help, guidance, and expertise in driving me to execute a successful career search. There is a saying that there is strength in numbers and working with you I felt like I had an armada of personal cheerleaders and business mentors behind me, and walking along side of me – and you were all of them wrapped into one!
