Interview Archives - Lisa J. Weiss - I of the Storm Coaching & Consulting

A New Job becomes the Gateway for a New Way of BEING

I am always deeply touched, and moved, when individuals I engage with are willing to give voice to their experience. Below is the reflection of a recent client who engaged with me this past summer in preparation for a job interview.

My experience of having coaching sessions with Lisa Weiss, I of the Storm Coaching & Consulting, Communication & Facilitation Specialist.

I needed coaching to prepare myself for a promotion process at a government department. It was my first time to go through such a process and the preparation seemed a daunting task to me. It appeared to me that I needed a one-semester course in policy analysis to pass the exam and the interview. It was the best strategy to get coaching from Lisa. I knew her from the time she was a facilitator at a career development seminar.

I learnt many important principles to overcome my fears and gain confidence in me.

A New Interview on Sister Leadership

Insights

A week ago a writer for SisterLeadership.com contacted me to be featured on their blog. A friend and associate, Norma Goldsmith, recommended me as a candidate. I was honoured and agreed to answer their questions on the topic of Vocation.

This was an interesting experience for me. I usually engage through conversation, and when I found out I was not able to engage in that way I was surprised when I found myself bracing against the fact that I would have to ‘write’ my answers down.

So I did what I know to do. I took a breath, chose Quantum TLC™ and allowed mySelf to express what is meaningful to me. Once I had completed the questions I have to admit my curiosity got the better of me and I went to the links for the other women who had been interviewed in the past. I was awed by their accomplishments and in a nano second my intellect went to thoughts of, who am I to be featured? These women have ‘done’ stuff. Then in a breath I remembered who and WHAT I AM, godFORCE, and knew all I need is the truth of my experience.
