Career Stocktake
Coaching

I contacted John Fitzgerald at Harmonics as I wanted him to help me “Shake Down” my career and assist me in deciding on my next step. At the end of our second meeting I had the most career clarity that I ever had – it was time to leave. I left my comfortable role and joined a fantastic business five months later. I now have a role where I have complete ownership of this part of our overall business. The business is growing so my issues are now about how I maximise that growth. The knowledge and skills that I had developed are allowing me to make a big difference to this business and shape the future direction.

“I participated in an Executive Career Stocktake Programme with my coach, Liam McDonnell of Harmonics. From the outset, Liam created a warm and safe space for me to reflect on my professional and personal experiences to date, enabling me to identify strengths, abilities and confidence that I wasn’t fully aware of or utilising. This was achieved through open-ended questions, intriguing exercises, and conversations that facilitated reflection. At a superficial level, my time with Liam has undoubtedly empowered me to tap into my own personal resources to steer me through my career, but at a deeper level, it has generated within me a more powerful tool – that of being accountable to myself – and this accountability will be a very powerful tool as I navigate my career ladder. I cannot recommend this programme enough.”

“I had the absolute pleasure of working with Bernie Butler in Harmonics when I was changing career direction. Bernie was always very professional, informative and a huge support to me during the process. She is such a genuine caring person who guided me through the whole process in a very positive way giving me the confidence in myself to go after the career I wanted. I can’t recommend Bernie and Harmonics enough.”

"Having taken voluntary redundancy I didn't anticipate the need for any outplacement support as I felt completely at peace with my decision. What came as a surprise to me however was the complete swirl in my mind when faced with the conundrum of "what next?". Thankfully Mary, my appointed career coach came to the rescue and I honestly cannot thank her enough. I felt completely at ease in her presence from the get-go and felt like my story and journey mattered. She helped me navigate my way out of the swirl to a place where I now have complete clarity on next steps. As part of our programme Mary recommended a 1:1 with Liam, Harmonics Market Intelligence Specialist, and that was another significant part of the journey for me I have to say. Both Liam and Mary were a joy to work with and such incredible professionals and experts in their respective fields. I feel extremely grateful to have had time with them and I really cannot recommend the Harmonics team and service enough."
