Redundancy and Outplacement Coaching
Being made redundant, or even the fear of redundancy, can be extremely stressful and alarming. It can also provide a moment to stop and reflect on life and work choices. Coaching, done on a one-to-one basis or in groups can be a very positive experience for people in this position, enabling them to:
- Review their skills and strengths.
- Reflect on their life and work choices.
- Develop learning skills to integrate new information in their next role.
- Identify options and opportunities.
- Feel confident in presenting themselves in a positive light.
A typical coaching programme would include:
Introductions and objectives-setting
- Outlining the situation and context to identify objectives for the programme.
Adjusting to change
- Exploring the emotions and feelings around change.
- Stress Management models and techniques to allay concerns.
Strengths analysis
- Identifying personal strengths, qualities, expertise and experience.
Redirecting the future
- Review of values.
- Work-Life balance issues for shaping a vision of the future.
- Options and opportunities for applying talent and potential.
Learning-to-learn skills
- Practical skills for integrating new information, retraining, learning new company practices.
- Mind Mapping and Speed Reading.
Presenting myself in a positive light
- The Inside: thinking strategies to build confident communication.
- The Outside: presentation and impact.
Becoming the future
- Accepting what needs to change.
- Adopting the behaviours, language and body language of the person who manages change successfully.
The programme is based on Cognitive-Behavioural Coaching practice, Neuro-Linguistic Programming, Transactional Analysis and Tony Buzan methodology. It is practical and interactive and gets to the heart of challenges facing anyone affected by redundancy or its threat.
