Individual Career Development Coaching and
Corporate Career Pathing for High Achievers

The process of becoming a successful, high-achieving professional is a unique and individual experience. Imitating the behavior of others higher up the career ladder in one's organization will not necessarily bring success nor satisfaction in one's career.

For over ten years, Katherine Kammer has been providing one-on-one corporate career coaching to bring out the characteristics of individuals which can enable them to succeed within their own corporate structure. At times, new behaviors must be learned and assimilated in order to achieve the personal and professional rewards individuals are seeking. Actively engaging in and developing new problem-solving skills and ways of looking at situations may be necessary in order to accomplish the goals set forth under this program. Kammer & Associates guides individuals who already demonstrate a level of competence and achievement to the next level - that of outstanding performance.

Participants in the individual career development program assess their strengths and weaknesses, their needs and sources of motivation, and their overall fit in relation to their organizations. They complete the program with a keen insight into their own career, its direction, and their ultimate reponsibility for their own professional success and career satifaction.

Individual Career Development Coaching is typically corporate-sponsored and is provided on an hourly basis as needed by the individual being sponsored.

Career, Motivation and Communication Styles Assessment
using The Birkman Method®

Assessment is the crucial first step professionals must undertake when faced with the difficult career choices which are part of today's workplace reality. Kammer & Associates is highly skilled in the use of the most successful career assessment instrument, The Birkman Method®, and actively employs it when dealing with professionals seeking career advice.

The Birkman Method® provides powerful, objective insight to an individual's core. It has been in use for over 40 years and employed to provide career guidance to well over 1.5 million people from over 5,000 companies worldwide.

Why is The Birkman Method® preferred?

The Birkman Method® integrates interest and behavioral information to analyze the factors which influence the unique choices, responses, strengths and barriers individuals bring to their careers and workplace relationships.

The Birkman Method® uses the individual's understanding of socially desirable behaviors as well as the individual's internal motivating factors to measure and report how that individual interacts under ordinary daily circumstances and during intensely stressful situations.

The Birkman Method® provides prescriptive information for the individual. It provides a series of recommendations for behavioral changes which will enable the individual to better perform on the job and in life situations.

Kammer & Associates employs the insight gathered from this useful assessment instrument to further develop the individual's understanding of internal motivation, behavior and perception by others.
