Hello. I'm Mike.
With 12 years of experience in higher education and 13 years of experience career coaching, I understand the many challenges faced by professionals working in higher education institutions, including:
- limited advancement opportunities;
- role ambiguity and scope creep;
- navigating institutional politics;
- high workload and low recognition; and
- burnout and work-life imbalance.
These struggles can lead many to doubt their value and skills.
That's why I career coach. I specialize in empowering professionals like you to face and overcome these challenges, and to navigate career transitions, and land their dream jobs. My coaching approach combines:
- pragmatic, evidence-based strategies;
- collaboration to build trusted partnerships; and
- personalized, clear, and actionable plans to achieve your goals.
You do not need to do this alone. Let's work together to transform your career aspirations into reality.
