Personal Strategic Planning: A Coaching Group For Young Professionals

Are you in the early stages of your professional career and you want a successful career AND a life?

Do you love your work, but you want some balance?

Are you doing a job, but not doing your dream?

Is it time to integrate who you are with what you do?

If your first response is “Impossible”, think again. Many leaders, just like you, have embarked on this journey with great success.  Too often, as young professionals starting out, we get caught up in the day-to-day details of our professional lives-- THE DOING -- and we lose track of the life and work we had once dreamed about. That’s why I developed Personal Strategic Planning.

Strategic planning is an essential tool for business. Have you ever thought of how rewarding and satisfying creating a strategic plan for yourself might be?

Personal Strategic Planning is a personal-professional quest. In this process you will assess what what you have accomplished, what has real meaning for you, and what is missing. You will identify your life’s purpose, create your personal vision and articulate the next steps in your journey. You will clarify your priorities, what you value, and create the road map so that you can live the personal and professional life you dream of living. It is your life, after all.

In Personal Strategic Planning, you:

• Clarify your mission and vision (personal and professional, and the linkages between them)
• Conduct your personal S.W.O.T. analysis
• Develop your environmental scan
• Set measurable goals and strategies
• Identify your social capital and critical networks, and
• Create your wheel of life balance (yes, balance is achievable).

Deliverables include:

• Your own strategic plan and goals for putting the plan in motion,
• Commitment to your dreams and fulfilling them
• Increased confidence, ability and integrity as a leader
• New friendships and a network to support your development
• A methodology to keep your dreams in the forefront
• Renewed energy and balance in your work and personal life.

Creating Your Own Personal Strategic Plan is for…

Young professionals who are ready to explore and create the plan the next phase of their lives professionally and personally.

You will be joining a virtual support network consisting of six to eight young professionals that meets twice a month for one hour via teleconference with me as your coach. This is not a training course, but rather a customized coaching program that is geared specifically to helping you create your strategic plan. Because this is a virtual group, there is no travel involved, which means you can join the group from the privacy and comfort of your office or home.

You will network with other young professionals for support, ideas, and inspiration. You will tap into the wisdom of your colleagues who want to succeed, and you will gain each other's insights, input and perspective. You will benefit from my 20+ years experience in coaching leaders as well as from my research on successful leaders.

In addition to the group coaching calls, you will have the following to enable your success:

• Your own personal strategic planning document.
• Personality assessments to key in on what keeps you centered and creative.
• Wheel of Life template to better understand your priorities.
• Social Network Mind Map to clarify and build your social capital.
• Tips and strategies on how to identify people who can help you, and
• Individual laser coaching sessions and email support as needed between group calls
