Career Transition
Career transition or outplacement services are provided by The Leader's Edge/Leaders By Design on a selective level. This program, called LAUNCH, is focused on assisting a senior leader as they transition into a new job or career.
As a boutique firm, we value the unique situation of each individual and do not simply apply a 'template'. Instead, each transitioning leader is given a personal consultant with outplacement experience to work with them through the process.
The Leader's Edge/Leaders By Design views the time of transition as ideal for reviewing leadership style and ability, as well as life and career goals. Under the sensitive guidance of a consultant we provide comprehensive services to support this important transition. Our LAUNCH process incorporates the following areas:
- Gain Perspective - The coach supports the senior executive as they exit the current company. This includes reviewing skills, strengths and abilities. The goal is to gain insight to re-establish confidence, self-esteem and enthusiasm.
- Review Skills, Abilities & Goals - In this phase of the program a comprehensive assessment of the executive's leadership and communication style is conducted, as well as an evaluation of his/her goals at the current juncture in their life. Specific career objectives are identified based on experience and skills.
- Explore Options and Uncovering Opportunities - The coach will work closely with the transitioning executive to prepare and execute a marketing and networking campaign and develop a job/career search strategy.
- Make the "Right" Choice - In this final phase of the transition process, the executive and his/her coach will work to evaluate all career opportunities. This includes job selection, cultural assessment and compensation negotiation.
When the new position is selected, The Leader's Edge/Leaders By Design coach will assist the executive in the organizational integration and assimilation process.
