Welcome to “The Career
Stories Project”, a Podcast series demonstrating engaging techniques to
help clients share there stories and transform their careers!
In this series, I will be providing the listener with stories
that are elicited as a part of career counselling sessions. There are three types
of stories.
The first group of stories will provide examples of the
types of things clients may share in their first meeting. This process
typically starts with high school and follows their perceptions of their career
path up to the present. This process enables counselors to learn what the
client’s key motivations and needs are.
The second group of stories provides examples of specific
vignettes from their life. These activities can come from any life role, such
as work, education, and volunteering or family life. A key element is that
these stories have the person as the key actor; the success and positive
feelings of the event are due to actions they have taken. This enables us to
hear the core-motivated skills a person has.
The third meeting involves helping the clients to name the
skills clusters to enable them to effectively market themselves in their career
transition. We also begin the process of developing summary descriptions of
their career identity to support their career transition.
I am looking forward to creating this Podcast series!
