HELPING YOU LAND YOUR DREAM JOB

Coaching for your interviews and presentation

Leadership and management roles are hard to win. If you are stepping up in seniority, moving into a new area of expertise or industry, you will be really tested.  You’ll need to clearly articulate the value that you’ll bring and ally any fears your new employer may have.  Your experience, leadership credentials, gravitas, knowledge, expertise and style will all need to shine through.  You will also have to demonstrate your cultural fit and reassure your potential new colleagues that you are someone they can and really want to work with. So how will you stand out from the other candidates and win this job you really want?  

Helping you be your very best

I will:

  • Work with you to understand your potential employer and really get under the skin of what and who they are looking for
  • Crystallise your “why you” and your key messages
  • Prepare and rehearse you for interview questions that will probe your competencies, strengths and weaknesses
  • Coach you in your communication skills and style
  • Help you to create and deliver a fantastic presentation if this is required in the interview process
  • Boost your confidence and instil belief in your capabilities.

How will your coaching work?

My service will be tailored to you. I will work to suit your requirements, your location and timings. The following is a typical engagement:

1.   Via telephone and e-mail, you’ll brief me on the role and the organisation and I will do further background research to get prepared for your first in-person coaching session.

2.   During your first in-person coaching session (typically 2.5 hours), I will help you crystallise your “why you”, create your key messages and responses to questions.  We will work on your content and structure of any presentation / case study that you need to prepare.

3.   During your second in-person coaching session (typically 2 hours), we will work on your interview technique and rehearse your responses and your presentation delivery until you are brimming with confidence and ready to nail it.
