In a formal sense, career development is the process of managing life, learning, work, leisure, and transitions across the lifespan in order to move towards a personally determined future, as defined by the Career Industry Council of Australia.
Informally, it’s more than just work – because you are too.
Career counselling helps you make choices that will work for you. It takes in all your life, not just work. It will help you reflect and create self-awareness in order to develop a more satisfying and meaningful direction in work, learning, and career transition decisions. Career coaching might only focus on work performance, though not always.
On this website, the terms career counselling and career coaching are used interchangeably as they are generally quite similar.
It’s similar in some respects. Career coaching at Good Work Consulting is delivered by a Registered Professional Career Development Practitioner and this means I will discuss your work in a career counselling style and will help you access and understand reliable labour market data, education and training options, and other information and resources, where appropriate. Life coaches may have different backgrounds, accreditation, and niches.
I work with you to develop the skills to navigate and flourish in an ever-changing work landscape.
That’s completely ok and normal! You don’t need a specific question in mind, you might just feel like things aren’t quite where you need them to be. I’ll help you get to the bottom of it.
I will help you draft it, refine it, and most importantly, understand what content to include. Resume writing is a life skill, so I won’t write it for you, but I’ll coach you on how to do it. These skills transfer to different purposes and developing them helps you jump on an opportunity when it pops up.
