DIY Coaching: Ready for a Self-Made Career Path?
The first time I ever coached a client, I realized quickly that my whole approach to career coaching was wrong. You see, Abby was a 22 year old cashier at a local grocery store whose mom reached out because Abby was feeling confused. She knew that she wanted more in her life but she didn't know what that looked like.
Being a real rookie, I thought that I could just "coach" Abby through it and that together we would magically figure out exactly what she should do.
Boy was I wrong! You see, coaching is a really important aspect of navigating your pathway. However, without the use of the right assessments, you will spend a lot of time, money, and energy spinning your wheels. A career assessment can help prevent the frustration and overwhelming feelings that come with having a lack of focus and clarity.
In addition, some clients (like Abby) aren't ready for coaching, yet, they still need help. Abby's mom wanted her to be ready but she wasn't. I could tell she was reluctant to share anything and was only talking to me because her mom made her.
That's when it all clicked and I knew I needed a tool that could be used for clients like Abby so they could get some clarity in a no-pressure, non-threatening environment. That's when I found the iStartStrong® Interest Inventory, a widely used, popular, research-based career assessment from the well-known Myers-Briggs family that does not require interpretation from a certified administrator. It's like the DIY of reputable career assessments.
