Career Strategy
Back to Business Coaching Sessions
Are you applying for jobs and not getting any response, past the initial “we’ve got your application” email? Are you frustrated by long application forms, multiple application forms – and they still ask you for your CV? Do you despair that at the same time you are told to use a standardised CV format, you are also told that the only way to get the job is to offer something unique?
The CV is not the best way of showing what you are capable of.
It can only show what you have done before and that has a few problems:
Maybe you are newly out of college or university, and don’t have a career past with which to dazzle them;
Maybe you have been doing the same roles over and over again for years and you are … so … bored;
Maybe you left work for a while to have a family but you now have to ‘explain’ the gap.
While your past may show that you have some experience, it doesn’t give an accurate account of your potential or what you are capable of doing. If you have experience but hate the job, you’re not going in particularly motivated. And if you have never done the job but you are keen and eager and have the right approach to what the job requires – sorry, you didn’t even get through the front door because of that dreaded lack of ‘experience’.
The GC Index Profile – For Candidates and Contractors
The GC Index is an organometric tool that allows you to identify the type of impact you are likely to make within an organisation and beyond – it can also give you a great insight into how businesses and teams work – useful indeed when you are trying to make the maximum impact in a new role or project!
As an employee, it can help you understand what contribution you make to a team, where you can make the most impact and give you insight on how others around you will affect your ability to add value.
As a contractor or freelancer, it provides you with a unique interpretation of the value you can offer your client, and in many cases, will allow you to demonstrate how you can fit into any team – particularly where the end client already ready The GC index!
Many of the larger businesses are already GC People Companies, such as Orange, Santander, Water For People, Marriott, Energinet and many more. Adding your GC profile to your CV and profile can give you an extra benefit for the business.
6x 90 Minutes sessions, we will:
• Briefly review your CV to see what is on there that is of use and valuable.
• Includes the use and analysis of the innovative organometric test, The GC Index(c), which analyses the type of impact you can make to an organisation and what kind of contribution is going to inspire you.
• Discussion of career goals and aspirations, the importance of work life balance.
• Start to create a personal profile which indicates everything a recruiter needs to know YOU.
• Tools and techniques for taking this information to recruiters and hiring managers, so they can see the value you can add to the team.
The CV is unfortunately not going anywhere soon, but through this session you can show why you deserve to be treated as more than just another applicant.
There is also an option of a single 90 minute session that offers a more condensed package.

“Lee is a super-human and probably one of my favourite humans ever! Lee has been my mentor over the past 18 months and the difference Lee has made in my personal and professional is remarkable. Lee has this natural caring aura, has an open door policy and honestly there’s nothing that shocks or surprises her. Lee has completely revamped my confidence and helped me understand how my brain works and also provided me with a program to help me be successful. As cliche as it sounds, I wouldn’t be where I am without Lee. Lee implemented a training program that re-built my method of thinking/behaviour from the foundational level, helping me understand why I act/respond in certain situations and how I can better manage & conduct myself. On my professional level I had an era with a lot of change in a job that I loved, but with new management and complete misalignment, helped me provide able to tackle the work ‘issues’ I had. It’s surprising how much your job has an impact on everything you do and having a mentor, like Lee, can help me understand the situation without any biased opinions and judgment”
