Pathfinder - when outplacement isn't the answer

In these turbulent times, individuals transitioning out of their current roles are asking deeper and more philosophical questions about themselves and about how to replace the job they leave behind. They are increasingly questioning whether their path should change, how to identify it and deal with its challenges. If it stays the same they may want greater certainty that it is right.

Leading business psychologists at YSC have developed Pathfinder:

  • to help departing executives identify and prepare for a working life that aligns with their most deeply rooted needs and characteristics;
  • to convert learning and development themes from their departing role into opportunities and 'playing to spike strength' for their next career step;
  • to facilitate a transformational 'deep dive' journey that gives individuals real insight and perspective into themselves and their future career paths;
  • to include coaching support to aid realisation of these insights;
  • to provide organisations with a service that is deeper, more resonant and less transactional than traditional outplacement programmes – especially for senior executives who are already career savvy.

Business Benefits


Organisational:

  • brand equity, especially for 'employer of choice' organisations – is enhanced rather than reduced with a recognition that Pathfinder provides a highly personalised offering that is practical and an investment in the future;

Individual:

  • feel like they have been treated with dignity and respect by providing a deeply powerful and transformational experience;
  • a feeling of recognition that whilst one door is closing, their employer is helping open the next;
  • depart their current role with a much greater sense of perspective, positivity and self-revelation.

We have 20 years' experience assessing, developing and coaching the most senior business people across a diverse range of industries and functions. We are uniquely well equipped to help individuals dive far beneath the surface – revealing true insight and perspective.

We know what 'makes people tick' and have had much exposure to scenarios in which people struggle, both functionally and within an organisational type or culture.
