Votre client doute de ses capacités au travail. Comment pouvez-vous les aider à découvrir leurs compétences uniques ?

Encourage client to reflect on past successes and achievements. Collect feedback from colleagues, supervisors Compare the list with feedback received and reflections on past successes Recommend reputable personality assessments (e.g., Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, DISC assessment) to help them understand their natural preferences and strengths. Understanding their contributions can clarify valuable skills Brainstorm how their skills can be applied in different contexts or industries Set SMART (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-bound) goals to leverage these skills effectively

Audit your skills with a top level work breakdown. List the tasks you typically complete. Then break each task into 3 component skills. For each component skill, repeat the process. Example: Task: You write persuasive business-related content. If you write persuasive content, you can likely: 1. Generate ideas 2. Communicate clearly 3. Hold readers attention If you can generate ideas, you can likely: 4. Create solutions 5. Solve problems 6. Innovate If you can communicate clearly, you can likely: 7. Teach 8. Lead 9. Influence If you can hold readers attention, you can likely: 10. Market and promote products or services 11. Build an audience for your ideas 12. Succeed on social media Your audit yielded 12 high value skills.

Guide your client through a strengths audit. This could involve personality tests, skills assessments, or journaling prompts about accomplishments, natural talents, and preferred working methods. Ask them to revisit past successes at work. What challenges did they overcome? What skills did they leverage to achieve those results? Review past performance reviews or solicit feedback from colleagues (with permission). Focus on positive feedback that mentions specific strengths and skills valued by the team. Help them identify the gaps between their current skills and their desired career path. Then, focus on leveraging their existing unique strengths to bridge those gaps.

Always start with a self-assessment to identify your strengths, reflect on your experiences, from formal education to hobbies, and use online tools like LinkedIn's Skill Assessment to gain insights. Categorize your skills into groups such as communication, leadership, and technical skills. This reflection helps reveal your unique capabilities and sets a foundation for growth.

Seeking feedback is essential. Regularly ask for input from managers, peers, and mentors. Platforms like Officevibe can facilitate continuous feedback. Honest and constructive feedback provides a clear picture of your strengths and areas for improvement, guiding you towards your unique skills.

Encourage them to seek feedback from colleagues, managers, and friends. Others often see strengths we might not recognize in ourselves. Maybe suggest finding a mentor who can provide guidance and insight into their skills and potential.

Set clear, achievable goals to focus your development. Use the SMART criteria to ensure your goals are specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and time-bound. Short-term goals might target specific skills, while long-term goals can focus on career advancement. Regularly review and adjust your goals to stay on track.

Yes, love SMART goals, but I also love goals that are inviting to start and are fun and rewarding to archive. Workshops or activities are the best to introduce a client to a goal.

Guide the client through visualization exercises where they imagine themselves succeeding and using their skills effectively.

Building a skills toolkit enables you to not only identify your core skills and strengths, it also can identify the gaps in skills so that you can improve and enhance them. A quick and easy exercise is to write down the top ten skills you have and rank them from strongest to weakest. Then write down the top ten skills you believe it needed for career role you aspire to. How do you measure up? And what can you now do to enhance your skills for the role you aspire to?

Enhance your skills through continuous learning. Participate in training sessions, workshops, and webinars. Platforms like Coursera and LinkedIn Learning offer valuable resources. Seek mentorship and engage in challenging projects to apply and refine your skills. Continuous practice and real-world application are key to mastery.

Build confidence by celebrating your successes, both big and small. Keep a journal of your achievements and reflect on your growth. Step out of your comfort zone and take on new challenges. Positive affirmations and a supportive peer network can boost your confidence and help you trust your abilities.

It is not about the end destination but the small steps you achieve to reach the destination. By focusing only on the next step you need to take and making sure it is something that is measurable and makes progress, you can have the confidence to know that you are achieving something towards the bigger picture.

Helping a client discover their unique skills is about creating a safe and supportive environment where they can explore and reflect on their abilities. With patience and the right tools, you can guide them towards greater self-awareness and confidence in their professional capabilities.

Leverage peer support for growth and encouragement. Join peer learning groups and professional networks to share knowledge and experiences. Partner with peers to set goals and hold each other accountable. Collaborative projects and social support networks provide a sense of camaraderie and motivation.

The importance of a supportive network can not be underestimated. However, your colleagues will only ever see you in the context of your work environment and your job role. Which is great news if that's where you want to stay and grow, but not so good if your aspirations lie elsewhere or higher (or even if you're contemplating a wholesale career change). Getting clear on where you want to go and then get intentional about the network you need to support that aspiration is key.

Peer support is valuable. But if you find you are feeling lost or overwhelmed, peer support will not be enough. This is when to get professional support because career coaches know the tried and tested ways to help you reach your goals, find clarity and happiness.

Imbibe the spirit of working as a team with your peer, do not feel intimidated to ask questions, do not stop practicing because it yields improvement, never give up, you will be surprised to see yourself grow in a short time and you will see the potentials you had lying inside of you.

Allow the client to express their doubts and concerns without interruption. Validate their feelings and reassure them that self-doubt is common. Remind them of their past successes and strengths. Often, people overlook their own achievements.

Sometimes less is more. I’d advise them to wait 3 days or a week maximum, if they still feel this way, then we can dive deeper. It’s normal for all of us to go through period of confidence attacks at work, myself included. The feeling usually passes within a week and I have indication from elsewhere that I’m doing a good job. In the event you don’t get any indication of job well done or feel differently after a week, there’s no harm in improving yourself in the area you feel most insecure in. Ad astra!

The most important question you should ask yourself when you want to improve in any type of skill or personal improvement is: WHY? WHY do you want to improve that skill? Ask yourself what is your true MOTIVATION to work on it. What benefit/s you will get from upgrading. - You will invest your effort, energy, time and perhaps stop doing other things to prioritize this goal; keeping in mind and visualizing yourself in your future self having improved that skill will also help you continue in difficult times. - Think about how you'll feel when you've improved. I'm sure that you'll have more self-confidence and ready for the next challenges you set for yourself. Remember how important this skill it's important for you.
