“Progress” is defined as a movement toward a goal, a forward or onward movement.  The coaching process helps clients advance toward a personal goal, to achieve one or more desired outcomes, and to get unstuck from the current situation and propelled into a more desirable one – in other words, to make progress.

SEEING THE POSSIBILITIES

You know you don’t want to be where you are.  But do you know where you want to go?  Getting a handle on your personal traits, likes and dislikes, interests and abilities builds the foundation for creating an inspiring, motivating goal.

Achieve Ability™ helps you see the possibilities through a personal SWOT Analysis – Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Trip-Ups – and career direction exploration.  This foundational step in the process results in:

• A complete understanding of your strengths and weaknesses
• Strategies for managing and applying them to achieve your goals
• Career path identification
• Inspiration to keep progressing

CLARIFYING THE VISION

Honing in on your vision is the next step in the process.  Because your career doesn’t happen in a vacuum, it’s important to look at the whole of your life, including financial, relationship, emotional, wellness and spiritual, as well as professional aspects.  This culminates in a 360° Personal Vision Statement that helps you put goals into context and priority order, gain awareness of potential roadblocks and identify strategies to manage them.

After completing this step, you will have:

• A crystal clear vision of your future direction
• A definition of personal success
• Motivation
• Self-confidence

ACTIVATING THE VISION

This is where the theory meets practice and you convert your Personal Vision Statement goals into an action plan.   The result is a specific path and, as you accomplish intermediate goals, you’ll strengthen your confidence and remain motivated to keep working toward your dream.

Upon completing this step you will have:

• A detailed action plan with specific next steps and a timetable
• Accountability for getting the work done and meeting deadlines
• Recognition of your accomplishments to further strengthen confidence
• Continued motivation to stay the course

TRACKING FOR SUCCESS

Life happens, so even the best laid plans require fine tuning as they are implemented.  Ongoing clients receive help with action plan revisions and problem solving to stay motivated, celebrate successes and accelerate progress.
