Core Confidence - The Game Changing Guide to Having
it All in Work & Life

​What is standing in the way between creating the career and life you’re aiming for? Our research found there’s a common thread for many women as they move through their career, particularly as they head into their late twenties and beyond. For a variety of reasons, they have become disconnected from their inner resource of ‘core confidence’, and this is impacting their career progression. Core Confidence is about strengthening and supporting women to reconnect with that inner resource of ‘core confidence’. Our consulting and workshops have revealed that despite decades of good intentions to have more women in the top ranks of corporate and government organisations, very little progress has been made. We are dedicated to enabling women to face, manage and navigate the personal barriers that are standing in their way. This book includes the models and methodology we have been sharing in our workshops; it includes the 10 elements, both the internal and external facets, that together reconnect you to your Core Confidence.

  • ​Digital disruption, automation and robotics – what will the employment landscape look like in 2025?
  • ​​Portfolio careers – the desire for employees to have variety, freedom and flexibility will change the nature of how employees will approach​ the  employment conversation
  • ​Work anywhere, anytime – the ability to hire anyone, anywhere will increase opportunity and competition
  • ​Retention –  a job for life is a distant memory, gone too will be tenure, single focused loyalty and attachment to the organization
  • ​An ageing but more experience population who want and need to contribute beyond the traditional retirement age

WHAT KATE'S CLIENT SAY

Andrew McAnulty, Link Housing Executive Director

We engaged Kate to help us with both the design and delivery of our 2017 Senior Leadership Team Conference. Held across a 3-day period, Kate was instrumental in helping us stay on track and achieve the core business goals we set for the conference. Always flexible, Kate can adapt and respond to the discussion in the room to reveal sometimes hidden dynamics and eloquently integrate these views toward a collaborative outcome. Her deep knowledge of both organisational dynamics and commercial focus ensures that she can move between various roles throughout the program as needed that include a pure facilitator, consultant and trainer.

Kate is dynamic, responsive and strategic – her engaging style enabled a comprehensive set of outcomes to be achieved.

Alison MacDonald, Regional Manager NSW, Chartered Accountants Australia New Zealand

We were very fortunate to have Kate Boorer facilitate a session for our team to help us gain insights into what skills and experience we bring to our roles, our career values, and our communication styles. Kate delivered perfectly on the brief. The exercises were interesting, delivered at an ideal pace, and helped us all gain valuable lessons about ourselves and one another. And it was a really enjoyable experience. What sets Kate apart as a facilitator are her strengths as a communicator. Kate’s style is clear, straight forward and without any jargon. She connects with people because she genuinely listens and is very attentive to the dynamics of the group and the needs of the individuals. We were all enthused by Kate’s energy and focus and really appreciated the opportunity.
