Developing sustainable career coaching in the workplace

Abstract

This article is based on a conversation and so presented in the form of questions posed by Wendy Hirsh (W), NICEC Fellow, and answered by Rob Nathan (R), Managing Director of Career Counselling Services. We look at some of the particular tensions and opportunities in working with employers and how to anticipate some of the pitfalls in setting up services and also in framing individual career conversations. Rob also reflects on the theories and ideas which inform his practice as a career coach/counsellor.
