Start With These 3 Steps

C-Level Operations Executive
Your advice to 'own' your age (I'm 54) and not be afraid of it, gave me the confidence to be my authentic self. As it turns out, the CEO of this company was looking for someone with exactly my experience, authenticity, and self confidence.
One week and two interviews later I have what is potentially the best opportunity of my career. Thank you very much for the work you do!
You list your skills, credentials, and training on your profile and your resume.
Since ATS (applicant tracking systems) are looking for these keywords, you expect to get hits, inquiries, and interviews.
Your resume highlights your many experiences and accomplishments from your prior positions.
Since many of them bear some relationship to the job description described in the posting, you expect that you'll get noticed and that they'll see that you're a good fit for the position.

John has been nothing short of amazing - both in his technical knowledge and in his compassion for us and our work. [My partner and I] made the decision to work with John for his standard coaching package and were so impressed that we asked if he would work with us for a second coaching package. John's work throughout was realized at a superior level. Our results in working with John have been fabulous.

As a headhunter, I can count on one hand the number of career coaches who actually know what they're talking about.
You're one of the few whose advice is actually useful and accurate.
You've established yourself in your field. Now you're looking for opportunities to move up in your current role or company, or if that's not in the cards, to a better position with more upside.
Use the method to create a clear message around your value proposition. Dig deep in order to understand what your true value actually is and where you can (and should) be applying it.
Tap into and discover the power of your professional network to connect to recruiters and like-minded professionals. Seed the referrals that will bring opportunities to you.
As you enter your peak performance stage, you will be looking for ways to preserve your momentum and distinguish yourself from your competition. Prepare yourself to not only withstand, but shine under the greater scrutiny and challenge of landing senior and C-level opportunities.
Make sure you're communicating your hard-won value as effectively as possible.
Connect to the "hidden job market" where 80% of hiring takes place.
Leverage your experience and insight as a thought leader in your field to further your professional brand and reputation.
Traditional retirement is no longer an aspirational goal for engaged, achievement-oriented professionals.
The second-act career stage is a time to remove all of the extraneous aspects of your work and double down on creating a legacy and greater meaning and purpose in your work.
Whether evolving into a more flexible strategic role, or applying your best experience to a targeted consulting or entrepreneurial venture, the goal is to be able to work on your own terms and do what you love and do best.
