STYX CAREER CONSULT
CAREER COACH FOR HIGHLY EDUCATED PEOPLE
We are convinced that as a highly educated, also called theoretically skilled, you should become the director of your own career. And age doesn't matter: this applies to twenty-somethings, millennials and also forty-somethings and fifty-somethings. Because if you don't choose, you will be chosen, right? Jobs are out there, but which one fits? Applying for a job and finding a place where you fit and can be yourself requires a lot of research. Maintaining and developing your career has become a profession. Until now, unfortunately, you don't learn this during your education. We like to teach you how to make and keep your career sustainable. We want you to be able to make the contribution you want and experience job happiness. We are incorrigible optimists and always think in terms of possibilities. It's all about what you do want and what you can do. We do not believe in good or bad, but in fitting and less fitting. Our core values: trust, respect and positivity.
So what is ‘take control of your career’? ‘Being master of your destiny’? That you know what you want and what drives you. You know your strengths and your acceptable weaknesses. You believe in your potential. You know where to look for it. And you know how to do it, by networking and profiling yourself effectively.
Our clients report excellent help in “getting an idea of what kind of work I could do” and in “helping me take steps necessary to eventually find gainful employment.” These are exactly the things we like to do at Styx. If a direct, practical approach suits you and you're looking for intensive, individual, customized counseling, feel free to contact us by email or phone to set up an introductory appointment (without obligation).
WHEN CAN WE HELP YOU?
- If you want to return to work after illness or dismissal.
- If you are at a crossroads in your career and do not know what you want and/or where to look.
- If your function changes in such a way that the role you were asked for no longer suits you.
- If you do not know what you are good at.
- If your job is going to disappear (in the near future).
- If you want to test with an external person whether you are on the right track, e.g. for an internal application.
- If you want to learn how to write a good cover letter, get your resume in order and/or have better job interviews.
- If you need help building a (new) network.
OUR VISION ON COACHING
Our core values are expertise, attention and positivity. We want to keep learning continuously, because the job market changes, jobs change and the needs of our clients change. That is why we are Noloc members. We strongly believe in positive psychology: reinforcing what goes well. Your qualities always have two sides. Depending on the environment in which you work, the positive aspects come out better or less well. So work is about fitting in or not; never about good or bad. We also believe that people change because they want to. Something may be holding you back from taking matters into your own hands. We are happy to help you become aware of that and remove any obstacles.
OUR MOTTOS
- He who gets lost, discovers new roads.
- Every disadvantage has an advantage.
- Concentrate on what is going well.
