How FocusWorks Supports You
From Focus to Mastery
FocusWorks offers reflective, practical support for Career Development Professionals and organisations working in the careers, education and employability space.
The work is grounded in professional standards and real-world practice. It recognises the complexity of people-focused roles and the emotional, ethical and practical demands that come with them.
Rather than offering a fixed pathway, FocusWorks provides flexible coaching, workshops and CPD that respond to different needs, contexts and priorities.
Our Approach
All FocusWorks support is shaped by the Think. Feel. Do approach. This is not a model to work through in order. It is a lens that runs through everything we do.
Think: Creating clarity, understanding and professional insight. Making sense of complex situations, roles and decisions.
Feel: Recognising the emotional impact of the work. Exploring how pressure, confidence, uncertainty and responsibility show up in practice.
Do: Identifying practical, realistic actions that support effective and sustainable working.
This approach ensures that reflection leads to meaningful action, without adding pressure or unrealistic expectations.
Our Services
Support for Individuals
FocusWorks coaching offers protected space to pause, reflect and think clearly about your professional practice.
This support may be helpful if you are feeling overwhelmed, navigating change, questioning boundaries or looking for reflective CPD that feels supportive rather than performative.
Support is offered through short-term coaching packages, reflective tools and a free introductory Focus call.
Support for Organisations
FocusWorks works with education organisations, local authorities and Career Hubs to support ethical, reflective and sustainable careers practice.
This includes facilitated workshops and CPD designed to strengthen professional judgement, reflective practice and workforce wellbeing across teams and services.
All organisational support is tailored to context and priorities, and grounded in professional standards and real-world practice.
