Career Coaching

Growing Talent provides career coaching to Australian individuals and organisations, built around measured strengths rather than gaps.

  • Career counselling and development programs for people choosing a career, changing one, or building the one they already have.
  • Get Career-Ready prepares people for the job market, and Own your Career, Own your Performance keeps them moving once they are in it.
  • Gallup StrengthsFinder assessments and strengths training sit under the coaching, with Playing To Strengths as the flagship program for teams.
  • Founder Kathryn Donaldson is an International Coaching Federation accredited coach and a member of CDAA, NAGCAS and the Australian Association of Graduate Employers, and has run the practice since 2015.

Best for: Individuals and employers who want career development anchored in a strengths assessment rather than a resume rewrite.

  • One-to-one executive coaching for leaders, with Gallup Strengths assessments used to focus the conversation.
  • Team development for groups that need to work better together, not just individually.
