Built on The Career Prism Method℠
Every phase starts with the same foundation: objective data about how you’re naturally wired. From there, you choose how far you want to go. Start with Phase 1 and stop there, or keep building.
Phase 1: Facet
Understand how you’re wired so you can do the job you already have, differently.
You don’t need a new career to feel better at work. Sometimes you need to know why certain parts of your role drain you and others come easily. Phase 1 uses the Highlands Ability Battery (HAB), an objective test of natural abilities (not a personality quiz), to show your Genius, how you process information, solve problems, and work with others. Then we apply it to your current role.
Includes: HAB assessment, a 90 -minute debrief focused on your current role, and a summary of key takeaways
This is best for you if:
You like your job, but parts of it wear you out and you can’t pinpoint why
You were recently promoted or are new to leading people
You want to understand how your natural style differs from your team’s, and how to lead across those differences
You want to know what to keep, what to delegate, and what to restructure in your role
You feel stuck mid-career, but leaving isn’t the answer right now
Your role has changed through a reorg or new manager and you’re figuring out how to adapt
You’re preparing to ask for different responsibilities and want language for what you do best
Communication with your manager or colleagues feels harder than it should
Phase 2: Discover
Your full profile: Genius, Energy, Motives, and Sparks in one place.
Phase 2 adds assessments for Energy, Motives, and Sparks to your HAB results, giving you the complete picture. We spend two hours walking through everything together. Most clients leave with a clear sense of why some work has felt hard and what they’re naturally built for. A follow-up session a few days later gives you time to ask questions once it settles.
Includes: HAB and supplementary assessments, 2-hour debrief, 30-minute follow-up session, your G.E.M.S. Profile™ infographic (PDF).
This is best for you if:
You want a clear picture of yourself before making any big decisions
You’re considering a change but aren’t ready for a full career plan yet
You’ve taken personality tests before and want something more objective
Phase 3: Full Spectrum
Discover, Explore, and Focus: from self-knowledge to a plan you can act on.
Over six weeks, we turn your G.E.M.S. Profile™ into direction. I map the career areas where your abilities and energy fit today’s economy, including degrees, trades, and certifications. Through guided research, we narrow to a short list of strong options and build a plan for the one you choose.
Includes: Everything in Phase 2, your Career Spectrum™, four 30-minute coaching sessions, and your Career Design Blueprint™ (PDF roadmap)
This is best for you if:
You’re ready to make a change and want a structured plan
You’re a student choosing a major or school
You’re returning to work, changing fields, or deciding whether to retrain
You want a decision you can trust, backed by data
-
Goal: Structured support and dedicated partnership to turn your insights into sustained momentum and action.
Best for: Leaders and professionals in a significant season of change who want ongoing support, accountability, and a plan built around their goals over two to three months. This is a natural next step after any phase of The Adaptive Pivot™ Method, and it also works on its own.
What you gain:
A coaching engagement shaped around your goals and life stage, with support through transition, burnout, or a major pivot
Structure to help you follow through on your action steps and keep momentum
Regular accountability that helps you trust your own decisions
Your Alignment Guide: a personal Google Drive hub with your materials, resources, session summaries, and exercises to track your progress
How it works:
One 60-minute opening session to set your goals and scope
Seven 30-minute sessions over two to three months
Personalized activities and reflections between sessions
Email check-ins between sessions as needed
-
Your abilities don’t change, but industries and interests do. If you hit burnout, face a layoff, or feel pulled in a new direction, you don’t need to start over. Book a Recalibration Session and we’ll use your existing data to update your plan for where you are now.
