You Don't Have to be a Wealthy Executive to
Get Expert Career Guidance
If you want help on the path of ending your career
indecision once and for all,
or performing better in your current job, one of our
Oregon career coaches is the place to start.
Nearly half of the coaches at Feroce, the Internet's
premier coaching association, are based right here
in Oregon! (Why, just look at the original
picture on our site, above). We do encourage
you, though, to look at our other
professional coaches,
because almost all coaching is by phone, and you
don't want to limit yourself to geography.
In the U.S., expenses paid toward continuing education
undertaken to maintain or improve your business and
professional skills may be tax-deductible. See Treas.

I'm Cameron Powell,
founder of Feroce, Head Coach, and career coach.
I am a Coach Guide for Vocation Vacations and
several other web-based businesses. I
have a lot of experience coaching people through
career transitions, but I've also successfully
navigated several careers myself: public speaker,
attorney,
executive, entrepreneur, and more. I have mastered the art of personal
reinvention, but, more importantly, I have maintained
my personal integrity and work-life
balance, managed my time well, and pursued an ethic of excellence
and personal fulfillment.
I've created exactly the life and career I want --
and I want to get you yours. To see how I can
accelerate your career development
(and life
satisfaction), take a look at a few of my success stories, or some
recent breakthrough
coaching
conversations.
I know from personal experience how we get lost
on the way to our dream job, and what prevents many
from ever finding it. Using a
Pioneering Concept in career coaching
that I call Six
Ways of Listening, along with our
Strategic Life Planning Handbook (self-assessments specially
constructed from our own experience and dozens of
career-oriented books), and truly
amazing career
assessment tools, I can
guide you through the
breakthroughs that open you up to
greater career success and fulfillment. I'll
help you:
Figure out -- and then actually begin to work
toward -- a more satisfying and better-paying
career, or start your own business -- or be more
effective, authentic, and prosperous in the career
you have.
Make Better, Smarter Decisions in Life and Work
Navigate office politics, and become a better
negotiator
Save Time and be More Efficient, and Effective, in
your life and work
Get your life and work in balance!

coaching that can only come from a fellow creator and

Fomenting Real Change
So many people want to
change careers, or find greater satisfaction in their
current work! Work absorbs much of our waking life
and, in North America at least, defines a great deal
about how we are perceived. I have created several
of my own transformations in my social service career,
working in both
non-profit
and corporate settings.
What are the predictors of successful career
coaching? You bring a willingness to let go of old dreams and ideas, and we
work together to get a clear picture of your strengths and aptitudes. All
aspects of your life need to be taken into account so that work serves your
whole life, not the other way around!
Career coaching did not exist when I began my
work life as a young adult. I grew up in an era when girls could become
nurses, teachers or social workers. It seems so distant now, but it really
was about that limited! Along the way some of my jobs have been
seamstress, farm worker, supermarket cashier, rape counselor, baker, and
psychiatric hospital staff. In the process of figuring out a career path
for myself, I have also researched some unusual ideas, including becoming a
tattoo artist, floral designer, or mortician!
I have operated a couple of successful businesses in addition to my social work
career. I had a business for ten years teaching people about how to use fine art
rubber stamps in creative media. I also had another entrepreneurial
business for several years as a public speaker and sex educator working with
women’s groups.
Becoming self-employed has been a very liberating and creative experience for
me, and one component of my coaching practice involves teaching classes in
entrepreneurship for professionals in service careers and in the creative arts.
I would love to talk over yearnings you may feel about your work life and how
career coaching may be useful. Let’s discover a better direction together,
before more time passes!
Prior to establishing a private practice, I spent
twenty years supervising teams in a psychiatric ER and
various crisis centers. I had many opportunities to observe the human
capacity to cope with change and to navigate difficult
circumstances. I am very interested in working
with career coaching clients on the
qualities and habits they can develop to give themselves greater
resilience.
