Preparation [Survey]
IntroductionYour self-confidence is best when you are prioritizing work that predominately utilises your natural strengths/talents. The survey below is to provide insight into the percentage of time you spend focused on these strengths/talents, and what other activities are necessary for the specific role.The outcome of this survey should provide your strengths focal point for a new role, (either selecting a similar role to previous or pivoting accordingly), irrespective of the market conditions. Where you have potential knowledge gaps look at how you can close these in the short term.For anyone interested in Coaching, your answers would form the basis of initial discussions, which we will build on to strengthen your potential to excellence.
1. Super Powers, (these are your top character strengths that make you who you are, things like juggling lots of initiatives at once; empathetic active listener; Getting to source of problem quickly)a. What are your top 3 super powers [e.g. Problem Solver]?
b. What strengths / talents do they provide you [e.g. quickly identify root source of problem]?
| # | Super-Power | Strength / Talent |
|---|---|---|
| 1. | ||
| 2. | ||
| 3. |
2. Estimate % of week you spend on each area from your last/current role:
| Area | Detail | % Time | # of Hrs | Recommendation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Super-Powers | Strengths / Talents | (50% +) | ||
| Learning | Formal Training | (10%) | ||
| Admin | System access; email; etc. | (12.5%) | ||
| Other | Work not using Super-Powers | (20% -) | ||
| Downtime | Thinking space | (5% +) |
a. If “other” is larger than 10%, breakout the activities of work you are doing.- Indicate if activity is part of the role scope or additional responsibility- Rate your skill level against each activity 1 (very poor) - 5 (very strong)
| Breakout Activity | % Time | Scope of Role | Skill Level |
|---|---|---|---|
| e.g. KPI Reporting Out | 5% | Yes | 3 |
| Activity #2 | |||
| Activity #3 | |||
| Activity #4 | |||
| Activity #5 |
b. If there are any activities with rating 3 or lower & cover more than 5 hours per week:- Consider whether these activities could be tackled a different way, focusing on your strengths rather than weaknesses- Can you delegate any of these tasks?
e.g. You prepare reports every week that need to be presented to the Exec BoardPresentation skills are classified as a 2 thoughPotential Ideas:
Could you delegate task – maybe select different people from your team for senior exposure & a development opportunity
Can you send details as a mail, and only provide a short summary at the meeting (reducing presenting time)
Is low rating objective enough? Potentially ask trusted peers to assess; leverage strengths to improve situation; if it’s a learned skill concern, seek more practise & additional support
3. What is your ideal next role? [Same as above | similar level but reducing “other” activities | promotion | something different]a. Are there any knowledge based skills that you believe are required? [From your experience in previous business; you are seeing it as a requirement in Job Descriptions]b. How easy can you gain this knowledge?
4. What is your USP? – this needs to be your focus on all interactions in finding a new role, whether it be reaching out to network, or growing Personal Brand
5. Does your marketing material, selling the professional you (CV, LinkedIn, covering letters) align [100%] to your aspirations. If not, how can they be altered?
About Me
I am a professional leader with over 15 years of managerial experience, working with different sized teams, across various sized businesses, from start-ups to the big international corporates working on simplifying complexity to achieve optimum results.The world today is throwing so much more at us to solve at an exhausting pace. Some of us can thrive in this environment, but for the majority it’s difficult navigating. What skills do I have that are transferrable, should I always be completing training to upscale my skills, how do I become a specialist but also a generalist? My “soft skills” need more work, but I thought you wanted technical expertise?During my 1:1s with team members over the years, I realised that although most of us understand our strengths and weaknesses, we don’t necessarily focus on our key attributes to achieve the outcomes set for us. If you are not predominately using your strengths & continuously learning how to stretch them further, you cannot be excelling to your ultimate potential. With my teams, I was able to recognise these strengths & interests of individuals and align their scope accordingly. In the most extreme cases this took a perceived under achiever to a recognised Top Performer.I consider coaching as my next chapter, where I can utilise my collaborative support, allowing you to strengthen your potential to reach beyond what you feel is possible. You are already brilliant with your current skills, aptitude and strength of character, I’m here to ensure you realise this brilliance and that you position yourself for the success you deserve.… Everyone’s journey is unique, excitingly challenging & extremely rewarding. Let's begin with you!
