Career mapping

With more traditional career structures increasingly seen as unfit for purpose, more future-focused organisations are looking for fresh ways to articulate their career routes and opportunities.

We help organisations to create new career maps, generating clearer routes and bridges, working in partnership with you to make sure the new structures and career routes reflect the reality of your organisation. At the heart of our career work is the belief that the career structures and processes of the past won't support the organisations of the future. So we challenge our clients to think differently about what is needed and support them to find a solution that works for them and their people.

We also help you translate this into a format that works for your organisation - often this means helping you to develop an on-line career portal, or improve an existing digital resource. Working closely with your IT function, we help create a clear and accessible interface to enable people to navigate the organisation structure with ease.

"I was desperately searching for talented professionals to support the introduction and delivery of a coaching agenda. I was delighted when I ‘stumbled’ upon The Art of Work. From the first introduction, I was sold. Extremely talented professionals with an overwhelming wealth of experience and in-depth knowledge of the changing world of careers and engagement.

Their genuine passion for this subject and enthusiasm and passion to make a difference and see people grow is transparent. Sandra and Julie put themselves through tough development agendas to continuously increase their knowledge and skills.

The Art of Work developed a coaching development programme around career conversations that aligned itself to our core strategic objectives and values, which reflected the stage of our evolution. They demonstrated complete flexibility and were quick to respond to changes in our requirements with very tight turnarounds.

The engaging style encouraged a collaborative relationship making the journey an enjoyable experience. Sandra led the programme and is very thought provoking; she will always challenge people and get them to come out of their comfort zone. She is a great coach, extremely supportive and doesn’t let you off lightly!

Sandra herself, has a genuine passion for this subject and her enthusiasm to make a difference supports her reputation as being one of the key experts in her field."
