International

When searching for a job internationally, many challenges exist, such as visa sponsorship, cultural barriers, and limited professional networks to use as leverage. However, there are strategies you can learn to successfully navigate the job search process and increase your chances of finding the right opportunity.

Women at Work

Women face unique bias in the workplace. Gender inequality manifests in many ways: hiring, performance support, stretch assignments, pay, promotions, and sexual harassment. Understanding these issues gives women a leg up in their careers.

Older Workers

Ageism is an implicit bias that is subtle and hard to recognize but happens frequently. Older workers may be stereotyped as less productive, innovative, or unable to learn new skills than younger workers. It results in missing out on a highly experienced talent pool that older workers bring. There are techniques to identify & combat ageist stereotypes.

“A job is only a part of your career and it also may be completely separated from your career. A career is something you actively engage in and enjoy.  It is a long-term strategy that involves your thought and action.”

“In practice, it is essential to focus on the whole person and use theories beyond the limited scope of traditionally defined personality theories. No client fits precisely into one model. Using a wide array of research, I help build these theories seamlessly into my coaching.”
