The GCM Group Coaching Program is led by Executive/Leadership Coach Beth Offenbacker, PhD.  In addition to her work with Waterford, Beth is Director of Training & Development for Leaders in Energy, and she co-designed and leads the Green Career Workshops offered by LE.

This program is for you if you are seeking to

–Clarify or hone your Green Career Plan and develop your Green Career Portfolio

–Strengthen your Personal Brand as a Green Leader

–Map out or refine your Green Career Search Strategy

–Expand your knowledge of the Green Economy and the needs that potential hiring organizations have

–Understand the mindset and expectations of Human Resources professionals, and gain tips for working with them effectively

–Tips and strategies for enhancing your interview effectiveness, including interviewing and storytelling skills, establishing your credibility and build rapport, and valuable post-interviewing strategies

–Grow and expand your network of fellow Green Leaders

This green-focused group coaching program builds on our past Jobs Forums and two Green Career Workshops that we have presented (prior attendance of these is not a requirement for this program).  It is part of the Leaders in Energy community of job seekers and those seeking related opportunities, e.g., entrepreneurship, in the green space.

In addition to learning new tools and strategies, GCMers will support one another via networking, share information on their job search with others, etc.

We will also conduct experiential exercises to help you gain insights into your job search and collaborate with one another.  In addition, time will be set aside in each session to work on the “burning questions” or challenges that you are facing in your green career search.

This process can sometimes be a lonely and isolating one so GCM is a good way to build camaraderie and facilitate peer-to-peer networking within the green community.  The program is tailored to assist job seekers at all levels and provide a supportive environment.

Objectives

Participants will also have access to the GCM Portal, with materials from each of the GCM sessions to include recordings of the virtual sessions, worksheets, and other green career resources.
