Situation
“After two years as a PACU nurse manager at a university-based hospital system in MA, I was faced with the need to relocate back to Connecticut, within a three-month timeframe, for family reasons. I said to myself, I need to get my resume in shape to start applying as soon as possible. Knowing that I could not do this independently, I went to LI Profinder to look for a resume writer and found Coach Peter. Even though comparatively speaking, he was more expensive than the others I looked at, I hired him because the transition solution he offered would be vital for me to make my goal happen!”
Objective
After an introductory conversation, Coach Peter and Gail set clear project outcomes: For Gail to build a brand and Connecticut market strategy/execution that would result in her attaining an excellent job within the necessary timeframe. Watch action step 3 below as two weeks into the program, Peter and Gail needed to take a sidestep coaching journey to work through a current job situation.
Action
Coach Peter and Gail created an action plan that would:
- Create a strategic plan in CRM.
- Clearly define Gail’s unique brand statement.
- Coach through a job conflict situation.
- Execute the target market plan.
- Build a branded resume to take advantage of two job opportunities.
- Prepare for and execute all interviews.
- Work through the job offer, decide, and communicate acceptance.
- Provide a project plan based on consistent communication feedback loops, ensuring celebrating every achieved milestone along the way.
Result
“The position I currently hold is my first leadership position, and I was uncertain how to put myself out there as a now experienced leader. I knew my approach had to be more strategic and specific to my new goals. I did not know where to begin, and with a full work schedule and currently obtaining a Master’s degree, I was overwhelmed at the thought of making this transition to a new job in a new state happen.
Peter taught and coached me every step of the way, from developing my branding statement, building a targeted resume, interviewing, negotiating the job offer, and making the decision. Early on in the process, a leadership issue came up that needed to be resolved. Peter provided me with leadership coaching to help me learn how to be a more effective leader in my current position and future roles.
I was fortunate to have a job opportunity come up early in our strategic planning process, and we quickly adjusted our plan to focus on winning an offer.
I am happy to say that I accepted an offer that is a great fit for me personally and professionally, all within 75 days of starting my work with Peter.
Peter’s services are worth every penny, and I highly recommend him for any coaching you may need. I have him on speed dial for future services!”
