What does professional development mean?

Professional development is very individual. It can contain the following building blocks, which become particularly important at different times in life.

  1. Your personal vision forms the basis of your career – at the beginning it is essential to find out what is important to you.
  2. A good overview of the different options is a good first step – careers advice is very helpful for those starting their careers and those who have graduated.
  3. The next step is career planning with clear goals and intermediate goals and concrete next steps.
  4. Professional application training is helpful for your first job or a job change.
  5. If you have clear goals and plans, a good strategy on how you want to achieve them is crucial.
  6. Skills training can help you improve your performance and ensure you can grow at work and get more responsibility and money.
  7. Leadership training helps you take the next step in your career.

Like any change, professional development is a process – steps are crucial:

  1. Self reflection– Where are you at the moment?
  2. Change– Where do you want to go?
  3. New habits– How can you change your everyday life to achieve your goals?

My offer

In coaching and systemic counselling sessions in my virtual consultation room, I offer you new perspectives on your current situation, support to find your way and accompany you in your next steps. In order to support you in your career and professional development, I offer the following formats:

  • Systemic coaching: My coaching helps you with your professional and personal development and gives you clarity for difficult and far-reaching decisions. Over the years I have been able to support many people who were dissatisfied with their working environment, somehow stuck or just wanted to try something new.
  • Competence training – personal strategies in a professional context:The training imparts specialist knowledge and skills and gives practical instructions on how to strategically plan your own personal attitude and behaviour at work so that you can regain control and perform well. Practical exercises not only help you to react in a professional context, but also to reflect on how you deal with others and to establish new behavioural patterns.
  • Vocational advice and career planning: Together we will develop a vision for you, which type of work suits you, which position suits your interests and in which environment you can live out and develop your strengths. Based on this, you can find your own way and we plan your intermediate goals and concrete next steps.
  • Professional application training:The training helps you to work on your applications in a concentrated and confident manner and strengthens you for the job interviews. I have several years of experience with so-called "case interviews" for the world's leading management consulting firms.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ)

A job suits you if the following things are true:

  • You experience many moments in which you forget the time.
  • You feel that you are needed.
  • You can use your strengths.
  • You will be paid fairly and well.

As part of my career coaching, you will get some practice and work with me on activities to plan your personal vision and career goals.

I am sure that you too feel a need to learn and grow – it is human nature. I firmly believe that it is time for professional development when your curiosity and interest in your job are not being satisfied or you feel that you are not moving.

If you’re at a crossroads and have the feeling that “it can’t go on like this after all”, then it’s time for a professional reorientation. In my experience, there are two reasons for this:

  1. Your work is draining you right now and you’re wondering how much longer you can hold out.
  2. You hope for more from your professional life and do not want to be satisfied with the current situation.

Further education, training or even a degree are good ideas for professional development – but by no means your only options. Professional development is about planning your next steps in concrete terms. Together we will look at all areas of your professional life:

  • Your activities and the experience and expertise you need for them.
  • Your network, your role in the team and working with others.
  • Your opportunities to take on more responsibility or a leadership role.

For all these areas, we discuss where you are at the moment and what you want to achieve – and this gives us more clarity on how you can develop further.

If you have the feeling again, “I’m on a path that suits me well, that’s not too difficult for me and that I like to follow”, then we have reached the goal of your professional reorientation. And this path can look very different – a new job, more responsibility in your job, further training or self-employment – together we will find out what suits you best.

A career coach addresses your current desires and challenges and helps you to find solutions and plan your next steps. This process is very individual – the following changes are just a few examples of how I can help you too:

  • Develop a vision for your career
  • Gain clarity for difficult and far-reaching decisions
  • Approaching a new job or role with confidence and optimism
  • Regain the feeling of being in control and powerful
  • To reflect on how you deal with your colleagues and to establish new behavioural patterns.
  • To work on your applications with concentration and confidence
  • Job interviews successful most
  • Prepare you for self-employment and master it successfully

In order to find out what type you are and which career suits you well, it helps that you imagine your future as concretely as possible. Then we look at the different components of your professional life – your job, your salary, how much free time and flexibility you have, whether you work alone or in a team and how much responsibility you will have and what opportunities for personal and professional development you have stand open. The thought journey into your future will help us to find out which career suits you best.
