CAREER & LEADERSHIP TRAINING FOR CORPORATE PROFESSIONALS
Helping Organizations Support the Success, Engagement, and Leadership Growth of their Workforce
A 12-part, Yearlong Series for Corporate Professionals and Emerging Leaders
Kathy Caprino, M.A. – nationally-recognized career and work-life expert, executive and leadership developer, author and speaker — has developed a groundbreaking 12-part career growth and leadership training program for corporate professionals, offering effective ongoing career enhancement support for employees of all levels.
Based on Kathy’s yearlong national research and book Breakdown Breakthrough, her therapy training, communications expertise, and executive coaching and training programs with over 1,000 professionals nationwide, and her own leadership and high-level corporate experience, this program is designed to provide a much-needed forum addressing the specific challenges professional women and men face today, and offer ongoing support to corporate professionals to help them:
- Understand and explore more deeply their current professional and career challenges
- Discover new, effective solutions to their most pressing issues
- Connect with other colleagues, sponsors, supporters and mentors that will support them on their career path
- Identify their short- and long-term career and leadership visions and goals, and create a S.M.A.R.T plan to achieve their visions
- Forge the widest common ground possible between their personal visions and goals and their professional endeavors.
The ultimate goal of this program is to help talented, engaged career professionals find new solutions to their key challenges so that they may grow personally and professionally throughout their careers, and attain their highest levels of efficacy, engagement and productivity in their lives and work.
The most powerful long-term benefit of this program is that it supports inclusion and diversity, and aids organizations in balancing their leadership, managerial and support teams with talented, committed, and contributive men and women.
Kathy’s yearlong, 12-part workshop leadership training series consists of:
1) Twelve, two-hour interactive coaching workshops – conducted one each month, for 12 months. These sessions are facilitated by Kathy Caprino, M.A., each covering one particular area of compelling interest to professionals, and held onsite during the workday. Areas of discussion are drawn from Kathy’s national research with professionals, her book Breakdown Breakthrough, her work with career professionals, and suggestions from the corporate staff it serves.

LEADERSHIP COACHING
For emerging leaders and mid- to high-level professional women who wish to increase their leadership ability, confidence, authority, and impact in their roles.
(See Kathy’s latest article on Forbes.com: “Mandating Women at the Leadership Table: Why the Time is Now.”)
Her national research has yielded vitally important findings including:
1) 9 out of 10 women are facing at least one of 12 “hidden” challenges of working women.
3) There are numerous feminine principles and values that, when honored and embraced in a diverse culture, lead to greater success, growth, and innovation for organizations.
The findings are clear:
Organizations that embrace diversity and both masculine and feminine principles — and that have a more balanced representation of women in senior leadership — perform better financially and are better equipped to compete, innovate and thrive.
1) Become a strong role model
Kathy helps professional women reach their highest and best potential — as managers and leaders, role models, and as women – helping them hone a powerful vision for their professional contribution, and make that vision a reality.
Fees/Availability:
Please write to Kathy Caprino or call (203) 834-9933 for more information, or to discuss career growth and leadership coaching programs or seminars for the emerging women leaders at your organization.

Executive Coaching
Kathy’s Executive Coaching Programs for women
are ideal for:
Mid- to high-level professional women who wish to increase their experience of internal power, confidence, self-reliance, authority and fulfillment – as professional women, as managers and leaders, role models, and as women who wish to integrate their full life (family, etc.) with their career visions.
Approach:
Drawing on her yearlong national research study with professional women, and her coaching work with hundreds of women executives each year, Kathy helps female executives step fully into their passions, talents, and self-mastery at work. Working with Kathy, you’ll understand where your natural strengths and talents lie, as well as the skill areas you wish to develop and those you don’t. You’ll discover exciting new directions that will advance your career and your growth, bring expanded success and reward, and help you craft a more meaningful career that fulfills your personal and professional values, needs, and priorities over the long arch of your career.
Coaching Focus:
As in her leadership coaching, Kathy works with seven key areas of career success:

Communicating with Power and Confidence |
|
Building Supportive Work Relationships |
|
Reframing Limiting Beliefs |

Kathy also helps you address any or all of the 12 “hidden” challenges working women face today, including:
Difficulty in:
- Balancing life and work
- Speaking up and self-advocating with authority
- Dealing with crushing competition
- Addressing financial anxieties and other constraints
- Using your natural talents and gifts
- Helping others, your community and the world within your current career path
- Aligning your career with your personal values, priorities, integrity and authenticity
For more information on these and the other 12 “hidden” challenges professional women face today, see Kathy’s book Breakdown Breakthrough.
Coaching Outcome:
Kathy’s clients quickly gain access to more personal power, self-confidence, and self-mastery. They understand clearly who they are at their core, the special ways they are gifted and talented, and the unique value they bring to their employer. They are given free reign to explore what they truly want, and define the best ways to achieve their deepest visions.
Kathy knows that women are not “men in skirts.” As a former corporate Vice President and current leader (President of her own firm and relied-on media expert on careers and women), she has successfully navigated the challenges she helps her clients overcome, and is an empowering facilitator, advocate and mentor for women. In Kathy’s programs, clients identify their most exciting long-term visions for their career, and from this empowered standpoint, move forward with clarity, grace, focus and energy towards their highest goals.
