Career Contours
Career Contours offers a personalised service for individuals who are seeking clarity in career direction or choice. We know that success in making career decisions requires considerable self-awareness and an understanding of unique strengths, skills and motivations. Using well-established career tools, Career Contours offers a tailor-made coaching programme that helps individuals move forward with confidence in making effective choices, as well as practical assistance and guidance in turning your plans into reality.
Our highly experienced coaches have many years’ experience of working with lawyers making career moves inside and outside the law - and have been through major career changes themselves. Their backgrounds and expertise enable them to offer effective and practical support at points of change and at different career stages.
Career Contours coaching involves a powerful and effective mix of one-to-one coaching meetings and personal reflection and planning work between sessions. Core modules use an established and proven methodology to help gain insight and understanding about life and career goals.
Each Career Contours programme gives:
- decision-making confidence
- ideas about job options
- a road map for the future
- practical guidance on a range of skills, including effective self-marketing and CV and interview preparation
Further modules may be added to give additional flexibility to each programme.
