"Ineffective people live day after day with unused potential But creative experiences can be produced regularly, consistently, almost daily in people's lives. ” —Stephen Covey

Career and Personal Development is all about nurturing and growing the knowledge and natural aptitudes of people who are striving to succeed in their careers. It is helping individuals build on their current strengths in order to enhance their potential for positive achievement.

Career Development is also about supporting individuals through not only the decision-making and assessment phases of development —but also the implementation phase.

At AdVantage Consulting, we believe that by identifying individuals’ personal and vocational passions and motivations, we can help them:

  • Validate career choices
  • Work more effectively in the position they have chosen
  • Choose the best work goals and objectives
  • Plan for growth

A resume can trace an individual's history, and a personality profile can categorize a person by traits, but only by understanding motivation can we clearly see where an individual's talents, desires and potential lie. Understanding this, AdVantage Consulting utilizes one of the most unique assessment tools available today, MAPP ™ (Motivational Appraisal of Personal Potential), which measures this motivation as well as potential. Utilizing MAPP, we are able to offer data with high validity and reliability scores.

This robust instrument includes sections on personality, vocation, and educational styles — all in one appraisal. Personal motivations in categories like temperament, aptitude and vocational interests can be identified and rated according to their intensity. By charting these motivations, we can provide an understanding of the intricacies that keep individuals happy, thriving and effective in their work. When a job matches one’s true motivations, work seems easier and is more fulfilling!

Once appraisals are completed, customized Coaching Sessions can be designed to support development of individuals in the context of their career plans, job description or their participation on company teams.

Our programs for Career and Personal Development help businesses save money and time by:

  • Reducing turnover and job stress
  • Facilitating hiring decisions
  • Matching the right employees to the right positions
  • Organizing more efficient teams
  • Improving employee development, training, and succession planning

AdVantage Consulting will work with you not only to help deal with immediate or short-term career decisions for yourself and / or your employees, but to support you with creating plans for long-term development and management of all involved. Our mutual objectives will be to help you and your employees to take control of work, manage plans for growth, and fulfill personal and professional potential.

Additional services offered for Career and Personal Development are designed to meet the unique needs of our clients:

  • Job search (internal and external)
  • Individual and team development workshops on the importance of motivation
  • One-on-one coaching
  • Communication skills
  • Goal Setting

Using Assessments such as MAPP ™, MBTI ®, DiSC ™, 360° feedback, and more we help executives, managers and individual contributors clarify personal and professional career choices and goals.

Think of the possibilities! Fulfilling your highest potential can be assured by matching your motivations to your career goals, and keeping you on the path to excellence.
