Get Career Clarity in 30 Days

Hello and welcome to this week’s episode of the podcast! 

How are you?

It’s an exciting time right now. Enrollment opens for Beyond the Ceiling next week on July 23rd!

This is my 4 month group coaching program exclusively for women in Pharma/Biotech to build your leadership skills to design your unique career path, get a new job, get promoted, or upgrade and reshape your current role.

And to kick-off open enrollment I’m going to be teaching a new class – Hidden Ways to Get the Career You Want – on Zoom – at 1130am. After the training I’m also going to talk about all of the Beyond the Ceiling details and how I can support you in your career.

Get all the details and be sure to join us. You can get the registration link in the show notes.

Now today we are going to talk about how to get career clarity – how to be certain of your next move in your career.

But not just how to know what that next best move is but how to do it in 30 days.

30 days! 

I spent years in a good job knowing it wasn’t my best role that was leveraging my talents and potential but not really sure what that next move was.

So I made a lot of career decisions based on what made sense.

Through a lot of trial and error and so many years, I finally figured it out.

Then I reverse engineered what I needed to know to identify my best role and why all those generic assessments, mentors and pathways at work didn’t give me the answer.

I tested it for years with women in the industry and guess what? It always worked.

100% of the time it gave my clients career clarity.

So then I looked at how I could expedite it to help my clients get the answer in less than 2-3 months.

Then I looked at how I could get my clients through the process to get their “aha” moment in 30 days or less.

And that’s what I did.

This is what we are talking about today.

My gosh, what I would have paid to be able to listen to this episode years ago when I was frustrated and settling – thinking maybe dream jobs don’t exist.

We are going to talk about my Career Protocol process. 

Your Career Protocol tells you exactly what you want down to the type of work you want to do, your zone of genius, your strengths, the type of boss you work best with, the type of culture you would do well in, and this is powerful. It not only gives you direction but it also tells you what questions to ask when you’re interviewing so you know if the company is just repeating a poster or do they actually behave like they say they want to.

It tells you what gaps you have in your career that are preventing you from getting to your next promotion or long term career vision.

It gives you a roadmap.

It’s a powerful decision making tool so you always know what you want and can proactively drive your career forward, knowing it’s the right direction.

This is what is missing if you aren’t where you want to be in your career now or aren’t sure what you want for your future.

It stops you from solving the wrong problem so you don’t waste your time or move into a new role that you later regret.

You’ll be able to communicate with confidence what your dream role is.

You’ll know what companies to apply for.

You’ll know how to make the winning business case to get promoted where you are.

It takes all the guesswork out.

You finally have the answer to what role is your perfect fit.

The Career Protocol gives you the data to support your role you want.

One of the biggest reasons people fail in getting the job or promotion they want is they aren’t certain it’s the best role for them and they can’t clearly articulate why they are the best fit for the job.

And the Career Protocol solves that problem.

You suddenly know who you need to talk to. It tells you what answers you need. 

When you don’t know what you want, it gives you the answer.

When you do know what you want, it gives you the detail you need to be compelling and have the best strategy to get it.

You’ll feel clear and build awareness around all your experiences and expertise so you see how everything you’ve done fits together.

You’ll build confidence in who you are now and what you should do next to advance your career.

Within the first 30 days inside Beyond the Ceiling you will have a complete Career Protocol that gives you instant clarity on your path and takes all of the guesswork out of which jobs are right for you.

You will escape overthinking and worrying you will make the wrong decision because the Career Protocol becomes your go-to decision making tool.

You’ll feel confident that you’re focused on the right things, building the right skills, and searching for the right roles that will set you up for long-term career success.

If you want to know your next best role now or you want to plan the next 3-5 years of your career, you get the clarity you need to drive your career forward with your unique Career Protocol.

Here is how one member describes the Career Protocol: “The career protocol provided was a game-changer for me. I feel confident in my career decision and next step. That “ah-ha” moment that I had during a coaching session review of my personal protocol was altering and amazing.”

If you’re wondering if the Career Protocol is something for you because of your level or type of job, here are some of the different types of clients that have created their Career Protocol with me.

Client 1 is a perfectionist and a PhD Scientist.

When we started working together she liked her boss and was overall happy in her role, but was not feeling challenged.

She wanted to know what her plan was and know she was driving her career in the right direction.

She started looking on LinkedIn for a new job and assessing her skills. She started working on her resume and before you know it she fell down a rabbit hole.

Spending 20 hours a week scrolling, updating, applying.

But for what? She wasn’t sure…exactly.

We created her career protocol. She now knows what she wants for her next 3 years, has the ideal work/home life, and is on track for a promotion.

Client 2 is a Director and loves her boss. She felt she wasn’t in the right role and it was draining her, leaving little energy for her child and partner.

She moved into her role for the experience but doesn’t feel like her work is making a difference day-to-day. She knows it is important but she doesn’t feel connected to it.

She wants to work on projects that would have helped a family member close to her.

But isn’t sure what it would look like or what her options are. She’s considering leaving her company but not sure if she should.

We created her Career Protocol and used it with my career disruptive strategy. Client 2 Had a role created for her in another Department, she defined the job description and received a $20,000 salary increase. She was just nominated for promotion to Senior Director within a year of being in her new role.

Client 3 is early in her Pharma/Biotech career and passionate about what she does. The problem is she is constantly working – either at work or thinking about it.

The deadlines are always moving and her boss is nice, but doesn’t communicate or lead well.

She thinks she should be promoted for everything she sacrifices but her boss says there are budget issues.

We created her Career Protocol to tell her if she should stay or go and what role would be best for her, it also told her what companies to apply with. This client, client 3 had multiple competing offers externally and a counter offer internally – accepted a new role with a $25,000 salary increase and $10,000 sign on bonus. She used her Career Protocol to tell her which job to take and my coaching to get multiple offers and negotiate her offers.

Client 4 just started a new job as an Associate Director and is questioning if she made the right choice.

The job description doesn’t match up with what she thought she was going to be doing. Resources are tight and her deliverables seem impossible.

A recruiter is reaching out to see if she’s interested in another job that would be completely different. She’s not sure if she should consider it.

She thought this was the right move but now she’s not so sure.

Client 4 has built a successful career in Pharma/Biotech but always felt like something was missing.

She secretly has wondered if she should have her own business or do consulting.

She has an idea she has thought of that would be a game-changer for clinical trials but never got it off the ground.

She’s wondering if she should become a CEO or stay the course.

We created her Career Protocol and it informed her that the great idea she had years ago is something she should pursue and after coaching to ensure it was the right decision, she left her role in Pharma and has started her own business, feels like she has her confidence back and is where she belongs.

Client 5 created her Career Protocol to figure out how to advance her career beyond the Management level.

She ended up getting promoted and a new job created for her. She continued to use the process to guide her career forward and in 3 years she was a Senior Director of a new facility.

Once you have your protocol, you not only make the best decisions now, but you make the right decisions for your future.

It doesn’t matter if you are early in your career, or a seasoned leader. If you work in the lab or an office. If you have a PhD or not. The Career Protocol is the missing piece. It is what you need to inform your direction and ensure you choose a career direction that is best for you, not what just makes sense off your resume.

My process is different and unique, no one else in the industry is developing women in Pharma/Biotech like this. I don’t change you into someone you aren’t or just make decisions off what makes sense in your resume. We follow a proven process that is personalized to you and create your unique Protocol, we then equip you with the best skills to get you from where you are to where you want to be as fast as possible.

You are unique and have a value proposition no one else does, so my Career Protocol takes that into consideration and ensures the best role is tailored to you, no generic processes here. We aren’t fitting you into a bucket or existing organizational chart, we use this to create your role for you.

It is the foundation of tapping into hidden opportunities. It is what helps you stand out in a sea of candidates as the easy yes.

It’s what builds your confidence in yourself and your career decisions.

As a woman in Pharma/Biotech it’s time to disrupt the industry and get a job upgrade. We are going to do that by creating your Career Protocol first. It’s the one thing you’re missing that is going to get what you want now and in the long term.

When you join Beyond the Ceiling next month, it’s what we do in the first 30 days.

In fact, the process is in the portal right now so you don’t even have to wait until we get started in August. Once you’re approved to join, you get immediate access to the material and prior calls.
