This mattered to one technology executive so maybe it will matter to you too.

StrengthsFinder

This technology leader (I’ll call him John) had taken a Gallup StrengthsFinder assessment years ago but like most people who don’t receive coaching around their StrengthsFinder results, he put the report in a drawer and it never again saw the light of day.

Strengths

That was until someone asked John if he knew his unique personal Strengths. He dug out the report and made time to read about his unique Traits and Strengths. At this point in his life he wanted to know more. He went to Google and searched for Strengths Coaches and found Jeff Snyder.

A Colleague Suggested

It was also suggested to John that he might want to look into emotional intelligence coaching along with gaining an understanding of what his StrengthsFinder report stated. While he was in a searching mood, he searched Google for Certified Emotional Intelligence Coaches and again he found Jeff Snyder.

Jeff Snyder Coaching

When he arrived at JeffSnyderCoaching.com, he discovered that he’d found a one stop shop for everything that matters to his personal branding in addition to the other coaching he set out to find. Specifically, he found Resume Coaching and LinkedIn Coaching services. Then John explored the Leadership Coaching Services that were built for people precisely like him that include StrengthsFinder Coaching and Emotional Intelligence Coaching.

A Career Crossroads

What this means is that John had progressed to his current role pretty much based on his intelligence. We’ll call this his IQ. Now that he was working at the Director level, he discovered that the IQ that got him to where he was would not necessarily push him to the next level. He really wanted to be a “C” level technology leader and he didn't know what to do to get there.

Career Progression

It was a discussion that John shared with one of his colleagues that caused John to seek out a career coach who could help him to understand his unique strengths and his emotional intelligence. John invested in himself and he has never looked back.

He is now a “C” level executive and he has measurable and quantifiable results connected to the coaching he invested in to go along with his easy-to-see career progression. He achieved exactly what his colleague suggested he might achieve if he were to find the right coach.
