2010 Olympics ~ Passion, Strengths & Goals!
March 9th, 2010 by Beth Kennedy
What an exciting two weeks filled with lots of emotions and incredible talent! Every Olympics, I still find myself in awe at how incredible the athletes are! I enjoy the stories about their lives and how many of them developed their passion at all ages and had the support and guidance to pursue their dreams!
I often think about how much happier individuals would be if they had the support to focus on their passions in their career and life and really live their best life! Are you clear on your natural strengths? Do you find ways to use them in your career, hobbies or other volunteer activities?
I will be facilitating a 5 week teleseries where individuals can explore what their tops strengths are and put together a vision so they can make the changes they need to live their best life!
Everyone has an opportunity to set goals, but sometimes life can get in the way! If you would like to take one hour out of your week for 5 weeks beginning on March 18, come join me for an interactive teleseries which can make a long lasting impact for you! To read more about it click here.
You may not be in the next Olympics but having a greater sense of happiness and fulfillment will be worth it!
Start taking action toward creating a happier and more fulfilled life!

Explore Your Best Life
February 8th, 2010 by Beth Kennedy
As a Career and Leadership Coach I learn a lot from my clients. Many of my clients last year were dealing with major changes. Many lost jobs they had for over 15 years and really did not think they were going to be in this transition. This transition gave them an opportunity to think about what they really wanted for their life. What does it mean to explore your best life? Simply put it means to tweak what we are doing to have more happiness! My honest clients tell me there is definitely no shortage of negative stress these days. We need to make choices that are going to energize us and keep us enjoying every day instead of feeling like we are on some hamster wheel getting nowhere.
In my own life – 2009 had some major career changes which allowed me to develop my business in different and exciting ways! I am completely recharged and have the energy that I need and want to drive my clients to their success! One small change I made was to sign up for an exercise morning boot camp. This change has provided me with such a recharge and has had a positive impact on my life and career.
William Bridges, a famous change expert has a model to explain how we deal with change. We all go through three key phases. The first one is the ending phase when we really have to say it is over. The second phase is the neutral zone. This is when we wake up and feel like our life is just a bunch of chaos. This is usually when I get a call from a client who needs some assistance. If we do not get the support we need in the neutral zone we cannot make it to the new beginning phase. The new beginning phase is when we can really focus, make good choices and explore our best life!
On March 18th I will be holding a 5 week teleseries ” Find Your Best Life”. To read more about it click here.
I am also holding a preview on February 23rd and hope you will join me.

The Career Empowerment Summit Recharge 2009
November 14th, 2009 by Beth Kennedy
Besides having an opportunity to network and get recharged with MIckey and Minnie Mouse, I had the opportunity to attend the Career Empowerment Summit in Orlando this October. This Conference was hosted by Career Directors International. An association that I belong to which focuses on providing coaches with the latest tools, trends and technologies for success! This conference focused on empowering coaches to assist clients thrive in any economy. My clients know that I take professional development as a coach very seriously and know this is a key benefit I bring to my practice.There were many great takeaways from the conference but I chose three to focus on for this article. Social networking is important but you need to know how to have it make the best impact for your career, federal jobs will be increasing but you need to be savvy to understand the complexity of applying, and companies that are providing the flexibility that employees want are going to have a better chance at retaining key employees.
The number one career question of 2009 is, how well are you managing your Linked In profile? The two key areas are the Summary & Experience. In your Summary you should write in the first person and in short paragraphs or bullet points. Hit the highlights and keep it interesting! In your Linked In Experience section do not include everything from your resume. Write 1-3 sentences highlighting some key achievements. If your new to Linked In and need some more information our presenter Jason Alba is a great resource. Check out this website www.LInkedInForJobSeekers.com.
As we know the competition for more traditional jobs are becoming more and more competitive. Individuals really need to have a multifaceted job search and think outside the box. Exploring Federal jobs may be an option for some. Federal agencies fill their jobs like private industries do, but the application process is more complex. Most federal job vacancies can be found at www.usajobs.opm.gov. There is even a website for Senior Leadership Positions, www.seniorleaders.gov and for college students www.studentjobs.gov. You can check out how many openings are available in your state and notice there is no shortage of federal jobs. If you need a referral to a professional resume writer that focuses on federal resumes..let me know.
My final point is that with 78% of couples in the United States being dual income earners, companies need to provide flexibility to their employees or they are going to lose their top performers. On a positive note many companies and their HR departments are realizing the strategic and economic edge that addressing work – life issues can give them in the competition to attract and keep employees. Work – life balance is not a trend that is going away. The data shows that employees, both men and women, at all levels want the flexibility to manage their needs while still meeting the needs of the organization!
