Andrew Grace Associates
Career Coach
I help individuals align careers with their strengths.
Coaching individuals via telephone. Writing a blog or newsletter. Attend networking events.
Skills needed: Attentive listening for content and for what is not being said. Asking great questions to stimulate clients to problem solve. Willingness to stay with the discerning process (not telling a client what to do). Certification may be helpful if your clients believe credentials are necessary to ensure quality coaching. Certification requires graduation of an approved coaching program, coaching hours, and an exam. I recommend coach certification from the International Coach Federation.
Here's the first step for professionals
Know your strengths and your values.
"You have to graduate from a paralegal school if you want to become a paralegal. You do not have enough money to start your own company. You are too old to change careers."
