✧ Career and Workforce Development
The Challenge:
Many workforce development programs excel with job search programs because they can be facilitated as one-off workshops. However, it is harder to provide successful career direction programs because the self-discovery is a longer process that is rarely resolved through most assessments and some workforce development programs cannot offer this due to funding, staffing and time restraints.
The Solution:
Introducing the Inner Compass Process—a distinctive curriculum that harnesses childhood memories to clarify career direction. This program can be facilitated as workshops or training sessions, complementing your existing programs and assisting participants in clarifying their career next steps.
The 3 Parts of the

Part 3: Roadmap
Participants will create a roadmap of next steps. Career roadmaps will include realistic goals, strategies to accomplish your goals, and tactics to overcome obstacles that might get in their way.

What Clients Say
"I would recommend Danielle as a presenter, facilitator and educator for any group or business environment."
Danielle gave a presentation for my Women of Denver networking group. Her facilitation skills are exemplary. She was able to engage the crowd with power, while creating a safe environment that encouraged conversation. When the group began to move off topic, she skillfully pulled us back on target to complete the presentation. I would recommend Danielle as a presenter, facilitator and educator for any group or business environment.

"Danielle and Keith were both dynamic and responsive speakers and let their expertise shine through."
Danielle Menditch Roessle, founder of Inner Compass Coach and Keith Bailey, Co-Founder of Articulated Intelligence, presented to our 905 Group "Professionals in Transition" career networking group on a volunteer pay-it-forward basis. Part of Danielle's and Keith's presentation was formal and well received and part was more of an informal question and answer session. They were both dynamic and responsive speakers and let their expertise shine through. They both took the time to assist each member as it was needed. Job transition can be rough for many and Danielle and Keith were sensitive to this and also provided pertinent (if not spectacular) visual materials to support and add value to the session. We thank Danielle and Keith for donating their time and would love to have back soon, as we feel the 905 Group can learn from her insights into career transition and the ever changing job market as it pertains to job seekers.
