More Than Career Coaching, it’s Career Psychology®

Whether you are an individual interested in improving your own career or you’re an employer who wants to strengthen your team and your leaders you’re in the right place. My name is Dr. Helen Ofosu and I will help you make the most of your skills, experience, values, and interests to build a satisfying and resilient career or a stronger organization. I use my expertise in Industrial/Organizational (I/O) psychology and my 15 years of professional experience to help you jump start or re-start your career. I’m the first to admit that I/O psychology is a clunky title, but it means that I’ve developed an efficient, effective, and unique program for my clients as a result of postgraduate studies, research, and professional practice. Since I/O psychology is not well known outside of certain contexts, I’ve written a short article and published a video that explains why I use it as my foundation for Career Coaching and HR consulting.

However, preparing effectively for such an eventuality can diminish your anxiety and position you to manage the potential transition smoothly.

What Does It Mean to Demonstrate Authentic Leadership?

What Does It Mean to Demonstrate Authentic Leadership?

Inexperienced leaders must recognize the difference between playing the “character” of what they think a leader should be and what authentic leadership is. This requires self-reflection and intentionally developing a genuine leadership style based on their own strengths, values, and a keen understanding of the team’s dynamics. Otherwise, their approach will seem hollow or one-sided and come across as inauthentic.
