IKIGAI

A Japanese concept – ‘your reason for being’. The French call it your ‘raison d’être’

There is a point where your values, what you like to do and what you are good at, all overlap and inter-lock – that is your IKIGAI.

Transpose that to your search for your next ideal role.

Just imagine that your job search has delivered that amazing role, where you are doing something you really excel at; something you are absolutely passionate about; and something that is needed and carries the salary you deserve..

How happy will you be? VERY?

BUT, the model is flawed in one critical area. As you look at the model’s multi-coloured flower, demonstrating the over-lapping/inter-locking elements, there is one vital part omitted.

The stem. The part that roots it to the ground.

Because location is an additional, but often missed, core part of IKIGAI.

If your next job potentially gave you everything you wanted/needed from a job, but it was located somewhere you couldn’t commute to, or wouldn’t want to relocate to, it’s no longer your IKIGAI – without compromise.

We focus on helping you reach your IKIGAI – on every dimension.

Think about it.

If you only have so many hours available for job searching and only limited time to secure your next role, would you prefer to concentrate your efforts on securing a role that gave you what you wanted, or would you search for something you didn’t really want?

Executive Career Transition

As an executive or senior manager, you are likely to face career change many times during your working life – either of your own volition, or instigated by others – and over which you will probably have little control or influence. This will be an essential time for you to get expert advice, support and guidance, to improve your personal branding and CV, shorten your job search time and win that interview!

Up to now you’ve probably done more research and taken more advice on each year’s holiday or other leisure interest, than you have ever done so far on your career, in your entire working life!

If you find yourself at the point of wanting to, or having to search for a new role – don’t risk the delays by going alone!

The Way Forward

We help identify your value-adding strengths, knowledge and experience, personal characteristics and define your career aspirations, so that a unique and powerful CV can present you at your best.

We help you to understand how to approach the job market from every angle and avoid the traps most job seekers often fall into; shortening the odds in your favour by not relying totally on recruiters or advertised jobs!

We help you to prepare for those important interviews and be truly ready to win the job offer. Knowing why you want the job is not enough; you have to know why they will want you!

Meeting Your Needs

Executives and senior managers, like you, look for someone to help them focus and address the key issues that frustrate them and prevent them moving forward; to inspire them and help them recognise, articulate and realise their true value and potential; who can help transform their performance, their success rate and their future.

Your Needs

For over 25 years, this has driven me to bring real quality to the process. Support for senior, high-performing and good quality people, just like you, who drive organisational direction, performance and profitability.

I’ve developed a very different approach; one that positively impacts your career direction and success in the current job market. It means you can better manage your own career; find a new one if needed; excel in your existing role or next one; become a masterful public speaker, or improve the cohesive performance of your executive teams.

Your Frustrations

Senior people continue to report on the limited and limiting support available for executives and senior managers, like you, who are looking for help, guidance or support through career transition.

They report a plethora of limited expertise, poor materials, poor performance, low commitment, no real empathy and worst of all, no inspiration! And most providers severely limit either their 1:1 time with clients, or the period their support will be available for!

Working with Bernard added enormous value to my job search. His wealth of experience combined with effective questioning style enabled me to get real clarity on what my ideal opportunity looked like and how I bring value to the organisations that I work with. Using this as the basis, he helped me develop a really impactful CV and gave me the confidence to have much more focused conversations with recruiters and potential employers alike. As I now prepare to start my new role, I would recommend working with Bernard to anyone looking for support with their job search.

I’m not one for melodrama. It may seem odd, therefore, to describe engaging Bernard Pearce as the essential difference between generating Success or propagating Failure in your Job Search.

When it comes to a Job Search, everyone wants a Happy Ending, not a Horror Movie. And that’s why I am delighted to have worked with Bernard.

I have had the good fortune to engage him twice in the last ten years. On both occasions, I have found his advice, guidance, and perspectives to be game-changing elements in my Job Search.

A compelling factor in working with Bernard is his ethical positioning. In my initial meeting with him I was told “I’ll be with you to the end”. He has proved as good as his word.

When a Job Search can take countless months, when you can feel like the world and every recruiter is against you, and when the light at the end of the tunnel feels like an oncoming train, knowing you have a hugely capable partner with you for the long haul is simply priceless.

A second factor to consider when working with Bernard is the significant volume of actionable insight. Different paths and opportunities are identified and considered, and thankfully from a bespoke person-centric approach. He helps to focus energy and interest on realistic propositions. You have a programme of work to fill those hours between Job Searches. And your refreshed, revised, revitalised CV ensures that you are on the strongest of foundations in each application.

There are many, many, Executive Career Coaches out there. Some are unqualified chancers, most are well-intentioned souls with patchy skillsets, a number are evidentially competent, and a very few are truly exceptional. Bernard stands at the very peak of this latter group.

My only criticism is that I didn’t use Bernard’s services earlier in my Search this time. I won’t make that mistake again.

Working with Bernard over the past number of months has been invaluable to me. His insight, structure and honesty allowed me to improve my personal brand and also ensured my skills, experience and personality stood out in a very tough job market.

Bernard ensured accountability which was key to our relationship. We established a super working relationship during out time together as we always set challenging goals; always had a focus on ‘what’s next’ and worked relentlessly towards my recent appointment.

I could not recommend Bernard’s skill set any more…happy to chat anyone through my experience, as it was so positive and career defining.

A man with epic emotional intelligence, empathy and optimism Bernard also utilises his world-class technical expertise in coaching and job searching to help you find the job you really want.

He will give you the focus, insight and inspiration you need to master your personal brand, identify perfect opportunities and deliver outstanding performance. With Bernard’s support you will conquer the application process, the interview and beyond!
