Media Industry Business Coaching
Want to take your business or career to the next level?

The Innovation for Success coaching programme is like having your own personal trainer but instead of focussing on fitness, the coach helps you with your "personal growth" in the real-life, tangible area of career development. The coach is selected based on their experience and qualifications, so they have the relevant background to help support you. Support is the key to the coaching programme - it's not just about providing expert advice and pat answers - there is a strong emphasis on raising self-awareness, setting your own goals, and then making action plans to achieve those goals. The coach is there to support, encourage and motivate you. I'm still midway through my programme but already I believe it's one of the best things I've done.

It’s lonely at the top. The most successful top executives have coaches because they recognise that a coach can help them reflect, prioritise, make decisions and focus on the important stuff.

It is just as lonely getting to the top when building up your media career or business. Whether you’re just starting out, or you have many years experience, the questions are the same: who do you turn to for a perspective on what really matters – your goals, your direction? How do you get from where you are now to where you really want to be? Who can you talk to about those weak points you know you need to deal with, but don’t know how?

From Connections experience of working with hundreds of media professionals, many of whom we supported as they took their first steps into the industry, Connections has developed a coaching programme specifically tailored for the media. It can match you with a coach who:

• Understands and has experience of your sector of the industry
• Is a fully trained professional receiving ongoing support through Connections coaching programme
• Can link you to further business support, technical training and industry networks

Coaching gives you the edge.
