Basic Framework

1.   NATURAL TALENT ASSESSMENTS

(About 4 hours online, can be done separately)

We integrate 3 domains of individual differences to give you the most accurate & complete talent profile. We use 4 most trusted & researched assessments available to the public. Each of these assessments has its own strength & limitation, but when we utilize our innovative Talent to Career Mapping Technology to integrate them together, the insight revealed about your talent & strength is amazingly accurate and powerful! 

• Personality – Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)

• Ability/Aptitude – Highlands Ability Battery (HIGHLANDS)

• Interest/Motivation – Strong Interest Inventory (STRONG)

• Keirsey’s Temperament Sorter

2.   CAREER STRENGTH ANALYSES

(About 1.5 hours online, can be done separately)

These analyses are developed by our Talent Optimization Expert Dr. Lee through years of extensive research, training, & practice. These analyses serve as very important data that can verify & enhance the accuracy & consistency of the results from your Natural Talent Assessments in the previous stage. You will also understand yourself from many different layers & angles that the assessments cannot reach.  

3.   INTERVIEW 

This interview involves a deep inquiry into your life so we can understand you from many different angles and layers. Questions include your personal upbringings, family & cultural influences, dreams, beliefs, values, aspirations, academic background, & career history. Many of these information serves as a reflection for you on your life journey thus far and will help you when you make the career decision later on. These are also the areas cannot be assessed by any instrument.

4.   VERIFICATION

This is the most important part of this whole process! We have gathered a lot of data & information about you from assessments, analyses, questionnaires, & interviews, but these data may not be totally accurate because human talent is complex & not an exact science and you have also been influenced by a lot of factors in life. To give you the most accurate talent profile and career strength, we have developed a systematic & scientifically proven process to verify the accuracy & consistency of all assessment results.  

Many other similar career services fail because they simply print out the assessment reports and hand to their clients without any verification. That often leads to misleading career advice and skeptical clients. 

5.   DISCOVER

This is the most fun part! You will discover what amazing talents & gifts you are born with! You will learn and understand about yourself from your temperament, personality, interest, and ability.  Each one of these domains connect to certain career strength but they are all interconnected as well. That means you will see your career strength consistently point to certain areas and form a very clear pattern. 

6.   INTEGRATE

The most magical moment happens here! Utilizing an innovative Talent to Career Mapping Technology, we are able to integrate your temperament/personality, interest, & ability all together and identify your Natural Talent & your strongest career strength zone.  This is the overlapping area where your personality, interest, & ability intersect. For example, when a client has a strong interest in medicine, the ability/aptitude to be a competent medical professional, and the personality to comfortably live and operate in that kind of profession, then s/he has all the scientific evidence to choose a medical career confidently.

7.   STRATEGIZE  

Now, let’s show off your talent to the world!  In this stage, you will learn how to develop your amazing Natural Talent into your unique strength and where you should leverage your strength to maximize your success and reward. This is a preparation to get into the next step where you will start a focused coaching to achieve your specific goal.

8.   PERSONAL COACHING

While our standard programs take about 2 – 4 weeks to complete where you will get a holistic picture of your talent profile & professional suggestions from Dr Lee; please remember that career decision making is an evolving process especially with young people, some clients prefer to take the information and suggestion they get from this program and make their own decision gradually over time. However, some clients like to work with Dr Lee throughout their decision-making period and some clients like to work with Dr Lee to achieve a goal that they want to reach, this is when personal coaching comes in.

Personal Coaching is a partnership where the coach & the client work together over a period of time to help the client achieve a goal or overcome obstacles in life. This period of time can be 3 months, 6 months, a year, or any length of time that the client desires.

We all have goals we want to reach, challenges we’re striving to overcome and times when we feel stuck. Partnering with a coach can change your life, setting you on a path to greater personal and professional fulfillment.

We offer the following 3 personal coaching programs, please contact us to learn more detail.
