The Career Change Blueprint Programme

Your Step-by-Step Guide To A Successful Career Change



The Career Change Blueprint Programme is a comprehensive package that has been carefully designed to bring together formal assessments and individual exercises with coaching and guidance support to help you to discover the new career that will be right for you.

All these elements help you to explore widely, to think outside the box and consider options which you might initially disregard and they will get you to a point where you are ready to take action with a clear sense of purpose about your new career ideas.



The Career Change Blueprint Programme



The programme is delivered over 3 months and it includes:


Formal Assessment
The Myers Briggs Personality Indicator® (MBTI). This is a world famous personality inventory, designed to help you understand yourself, your natural preferences, motivations, and potential areas for growth. Understanding yourself better enables you to assess career options with greater clarity. The assessment is taken online and we spend one coaching session reviewing and discussing the results. You also get a 10 page summary report explaining your personality type.

If you have already taken the MBTI and know your personality type, you can request an additional report focusing on your type in relation to any of the following: Communication Style, Decision Making, Stress Management and Conflict Management.

(The MBTI assessment, report and feedback is also available separately).


The Strong Interest Inventory which measures your interests using 291 different questions to explore your likes and dislikes and generates a prioritised list of occupations which match your interests. The results are associated with your MBTI preference to create an individualised 22 page combined Personality & Interests Career Report and discussed in a feedback session.

(The combined Strong/MBTI assessment, report and feedback or the Strong Interest Inventory on its own with shorter feedback are also available separately).


The Strengthscope Assessment which assesses 24 work based strengths. Strengths as defined by this assessment are the things that energise you and bring you to life at work, so they are central to any decision around making a successful career change. It also highlights non-strengths which may be a cause of stress if you are required to focus too much time on them. This tool asks you to collect feedback from up to 8 friends or work colleagues so you get a 360o perspective of your work strengths. You also get a 13 page report summarising your results plus a 1 hour feedback discussion.

(The Strengthscope assessment, report and feedback is also available separately).

Exercises
I use a variety of exercises to help you explore:

  • Your background and prior work experience
  • Your beliefs and attitudes and how they may help or hinder you as you approach your career change
  • Your values and priorities in relation to your work
  • Your key skills and achievements
  • Your interests and how they can be fulfilled through your work
  • Your goals and aspirations for your working life
  • The range of career and work options you want to consider in detail
  • The challenges you face and the opportunities open to you at this point in your career
  • Confidence and self belief to build up your ability to make changes where you know you need them
  • Strategies you need to adopt to keep you motivated and moving forward as you implement your career change plan


Coaching, guidance and support
You will have 10 individual, hour long coaching sessions over the 3 month period. These are used to help you review and explore the exercises and assessments you have done and to consider what they mean to you personally in planning your next career move. Coaching can be in person (depending on your location) or by phone or skype.

Action
The assessments and exercises are done by you prior to each session and you will complete the Programme with an Action Plan defining exactly what you will do to make progress with your career change, whether this is more research, time to reflect or direct job applications.

In addition you will also get:

  • One follow-up coaching session (value £125) to be used any time in the 6 months after the end of the programme

  • A free copy of my ebook Know Your Personality, Know Your Career (value £14.99)

  • A free copy of 101 Ways To Enhance Your Career (value £12.99)

  • 15% discount on my Job Search Programme when taken within 12 months of the CCBP (£295 instead of £347)

  • OR

  • 15% discount on my Career Support & Development Programme when taken within 12 months of the CCBP (£500 instead of £597)
