Career Coach InstituteFaculty
The CCI staff is unsurpassed in both credentials and commitment to your success.Instructors <== Meet our Practice Development Coaches ==> ====================== InstructorsMarcia Bench, MCCC, Founder/Director Title, Credentials: Master Certified Career Coach (MCCC), Certified Business Coach (CBC), Certified Career Management Practitioner (CMP), Certified Teleleader; J.D. degree in law and B.S. degree in psychology. Web sites: www.careercoachinstitute.com, www.retirementcoachinstitute.com www.marciabench.com and many more. What I Do: I am the Founder and Director of Career Coach Institute and its affiliate companies. I conceived the idea of blending career development with coach training in 2000, and shortly after that created CCI. I have developed and continue to oversee its program design, staffing, strategic planning, budgeting, student services, marketing, web services and curriculum development. CCI is my fourth business venture, and I love being an entrepreneur and owner of a growing company. I have also done my stint in “corporate,” both in administrative support and executive roles, and find that my need to respond quickly when an idea strikes and to do it “my way” draws me to business ownership. What I Like About My Work: My favorite part of my work is seeing (or hearing) the “quantumshift!” moment when someone who is coaching, being coached, or learning, finally has a moment of clarity. What a moment! I also love working virtually, since my spouse is retired and I love to travel, coaching and coach training lets me live my life and work wherever I go (or delegate it so I can take a break every so often!). And I love to innovate: if there’s a better way to do something and no one has thought of it yet, I’ll be the one to try it! Favorite Career Development/Self Improvement Program: Early on, it was Marsha Sinetar’s work that most inspired me, as well as author Nancy Anderson. Then Richard Lieder and so many current authors that continue to share the message of hope with the weary working world. Each of them opened my mind to the possibility that you can have work that is fun and also financially rewarding. And that’s what I have committed my life to helping myself and others create for themselves. Favorite Thing I’ve Learned About Myself Through Career Coach Training: I’ve learned so much more about what nurtures and works best for me: I love to have a Practice Development, I love to combine seemingly disparate knowledge or concepts into a cohesive set of principles or a program, I love to create and offer new products that wow people, and I love to have spontaneity and space for change in my life. And I’m thankful that those that work with me understand that and embrace it too (at least most of the time!) Favorite Career Coaching Book: Well, I have to admit it’s my own, Career Coaching: An Insider’s Guide, and anything by Dr. Wayne Dyer. Favorite Hobbies/Leisure Activities: I enjoy hiking in the woods of Oregon, being by the ocean, playing tennis – or watching professional matches, cooking and entertaining, boating, and warm weather. I am a cat lover and love to travel by RV, cruise ship or boat to fun new places.

I also appreciate having work that shapes itself around my life. Peace of mind and balance of the soul are what I value most. And…working internationally, discovering new opportunities that transcend cultural and economic boundaries are pretty awesome too! Favorite Career Development/Self Improvement Program: Living/working abroad (10 yrs.), and I’ve found that making a commitment to ONE Practice Development at a time (2 yrs. min.) ensures that YOU show up 100%.

In Career Coaching I get the awesome privilege of working with a wide variety of individuals where I can also use my gifts in the areas of achievement, focus, and analytical thinking to help clients achieve results that they otherwise would not have achieved on their own. Helping clients to think outside the box to develop creative job search and career transition strategies is exciting and fun! There’s never a dull moment because no two clients are ever alike.

Title, Credentials: Executive Coach, Management Consultant--PCCC Web site: www.theokeefegroupusa.com What I Do: I coach management and senior staff in the communications, marketing/sales and healthcare industry to help them find career fulfillment within a corporate setting. My career is dedicated to understanding the motivations and beliefs that drive decisions and to constructing solutions to workplace dilemmas for both individuals and corporations. My areas of expertise include leadership development, executive career planning and management, managing impact of mergers/joint ventures, and navigating career transitions. Our group focuses on behavioral change — within corporations and within individuals. Our consulting practice in the healthcare arena uses the principals of behavior change to help companies deliver value to their end users and stockholders. What I Like About My Work: The work I do in career and executive coaching builds upon my behavior change marketing background with efforts focused on people, not products. Since I work as a marketing consulting within major corporations, I am intimately familiar with the issues in the workplace which allows me to add value to my coaching work. Additionally, each person and situation is unique so the challenges are always fresh. Favorite Career Development/Self Improvement Program: The most impactful self-improvement program I’ve ever done was the Zig Ziglar program Born to Win. I found the seminar and particularly the series of tapes very helpful in terms of focusing my energies on the positive and productive. I refer to them again and again although I completed the program almost 10 years ago. My favorite career development was the decision to leave my “dream” job running an advertising agency to seek a different path. This led me to Career Coach Institute and the International Coach Federation which resulted in a new career in coaching. Favorite Thing I’ve Learned About Myself Through Career Coach Training: The favorite thing I’ve learned about myself through career coaching is that I’ve found the perfect career for me! Favorite Career Coaching Book: Targeting the Job You Want by Kate Wendleton Favorite Hobbies/Leisure Activities: Gardening, Biking, Swimming, Volunteer Work Title, Credentials: Ph.D., M.A., PCCC What I Do: I offer Strategic Alignment Life Coaching and Executive Career and Retirement Coaching.

Two years ago I made my own career transition to full-time Career Coaching. I will be teaching Coaching for Career Counselors for CCI. What I Like About My Work: I work with a focus on the strengths of my clients and how they can best fulfill their own unique potentials. The process is like unwrapping a gift and delighting at what one finds inside. The client and I are often both energized at the end of each session. I am always in awe at how wonderfully we are all made. Favorite Career Development/Self Improvement Program: I have thoroughly enjoyed and been expanded by all of the Career Coach Institute programs. They are all different with very rich material. They have served me well in the right way at the right time. Favorite Thing I’ve Learned About Myself Through Career Coach Training: Though I had a successful practice as a consulting psychologist, I have found Career Coaching is a better fit for me at this time in my life. After a lot of work I feel quite comfortable in my new career role as Coach vs. Consultant or Therapist or Counselor. Favorite Career Coaching Book: Career Coaching: An Insider’s Guide by Marcia Bench is, by far, the best book on the market for this subject. Another book I always enjoy is Zen and the Art of Making a Living by Laurence Boldt. Favorite Hobbies/Leisure Activities: Gardening, Movies, Reading, Biking, Skiing, “doing lunch” with my friends.
