I finally decided that I wanted to start my own independent consulting business and that I wanted to be my own boss

Chris was searching for a new role but wasn’t sure what direction to take his career in. Through our work together he got out of the slump, got out of his comfort zone, and was clear that he wanted to start his own independent consulting organization - then we shifted gears on how to do just that!

“Before working with Rikki I felt confused about the direction I wanted to take my career. I had been struggling with what to do with my job search. I was worried that I'd never find a job and I was worried that I'd take any job offered to me. I felt vulnerable and not in control.

I got clarity on how to get out of my slump because Rikki gave me specific action items to do - she challenged me to step out of my comfort zone. I never would have done this without Rikki! After working with Rikki I had clarity on how to adjust my career planning and I felt enabled to focus on what I wanted out of my career, not on what was available. 

Through reflective conversations with Rikki, I finally decided that I wanted to start my own independent consulting and that I wanted to be my own boss. Rikki worked with me and taught me ways to manage clients, calculate conversion metrics, how to increase visibility into my company, determine sales cycles, etc.

I now have the skills to return to the job hunt if I want and I have the skills to keep my independent consulting business moving forward. Because of her advice and support, I now feel empowered and confident in the steps I'm taking to continue to grow my career, and I would recommend Rikki to anyone who is looking to take control of their career. 

Rikki helped me develop the knowledge, skills, and attitudes to take control of my career trajectory!”
