Often Our life is like driving a car in an unknown city — crowded streets, lots of strange signs, unexpected jams, local specifics, etc. And the farther the journey is — the tougher are requirements for a driver.

Speed is high, traffic situation is dynamic, road companions could be difficult. And you need to make your decisions fast, balanced and optimal.

Where’s my turn? When to speed up or hit the brakes? What does that sign mean? Is it my way at all? In order to answer all these questions it’s very important to understand your own location, goals, priorities, current direction, and existing opportunities.

And with life choices, you can’t delegate them to a GPS navigator.

Here mentors and coaches can be of help. They are trained in best practices of decision-making and can assist you in your movement to your goals.

As common definition states, “coaching is a thought-provoking and creative partnership that ignites clients to maximize their own personal and professional potential.”  In other words, coach honours the client as the owner of his/her life and career, and thus believes that every client is resourceful, creative, and capable (so do you).

the same way like everything in life: the more you know — the smarter you go. Knowledge is power, especially about yourself. It helps you to make informed, SUSTAINABLE decisions and ETHICAL choices.

Who owns your life, isn’t it you? Only you yourself is the main stakeholder of your own life. The task of coach is not to direct you, coach helps you to understand yourself — and act. This could be achieved by conversations enabling client to see the situation from different angles, to stimulate own creativity, and to find inner power for the next steps. This is the coaching approach.

Once you accept the responsibility for your choices and their outcomes — then sooner or later, step by step, you achieve the goal. Each of us already have all necessary resources to start from. And then we learn by doing.

In practice, most of the sessions start from clarification of a goal and context. Then comes analysis of the current situation and review of the impediments, as well as search for new and fresh solutions. Upon cross-checking the options, we’ll move on to creating a list of practical action items including milestones and measurable results (if applicable). Adding some fun and emotions is a must.

Yes, typically career consulting could be rather expensive. Still, there are such things as volunteering and giving back to society — and this is the case here.

After all, I simply enjoy talking to new people of different background, usually it’s a mutually beneficial exchange.

We all need somebody to talk to. My clients are people who want to make their life and career a success story and thus need an experienced, open, confident and professional partner to talk to. To talk, to find a vision and to define a path to their own goals, to their dreams.

No one is ordinary. Whatever is your occupation, position, education, experience, or age — we can do it together.

Please note, the capacity is limited, so first come — first served.

Below are examples of cases in which my help could be useful:

• How to find balance between work and personal life?
• What is the right direction for me at the moment?
• I’m procrastinating, how to move on?
• How to make the right choice between A and B, or maybe C?
• How to learn a certain skill, help me make a plan.
• How to understand myself?
• How to boost my productivity?
• What is important for me and to follow my true self?
• What’s next? What should I do?

While there is no universal recipe or silver bullet, there are certain best practices. I just help you to find your own answers: those which will be true for your current situation.

And deep in my heart I do believe that — yes, you can!
