Working with Christine has allowed me to supercharge my LinkedIn profile. After just a few weeks I've been able to transform my profile into a true landing page for my prospects.

I loved how Christine broke the process into digestible bites. I loved the coaching aspect. I have a better understanding of how to proceed in articulating my brand - much more than if a consultant had done the work for me. Working side by side gave me the opportunity to really internalize the process.

Christine asked " So what's your Big Scary Goal,?" the most audacious job I could dream up? I swallowed harder than I wanted to, but Christine then spelled out her Job Search Plan, and "getting clarity of my brand." After the training, I got a great consultation. My LinkedIn profile is dramatically better. Everything was a very Big Help! And, I'm ready for my next interview tomorrow. Thanks Christine!

Before working with Christine, I felt overwhelmed by all of the important ways I needed to present myself on LinkedIn. I knew that just posting and commenting was not a strategy to grow my influence and client base on the platform.

Her collaborative, creative, flexible way of supporting me and the resources she provides are perfect for anyone who wants a systematic, easy to follow process focused on results-oriented activities.

Christine is an engaging speaker and consultant. She spoke to my HR class and provided the scholars with relevant information and ready to use resources. Christine’s approach to recruitment and selection was unique and insightful. From the perspective of the applicant, she provided helpful steps to consider for a successful search.

Christine is the real deal. My first experience was a webinar where she clearly explained how to optimize your LinkedIn profile to attract the right attention based on your career goals and the 3 essential areas to pay attention to. Christine offered practical tips that anyone can immediately implement. I also took advantage of her 1/2 hour coaching session where she reviewed my LI profile and provided honest (but not brutal) feedback, asking the right questions to help me clearly define my career goals. Christine doesn’t offer a cookie cutter approach to career coaching. Her webinars help you think past the standard suggestions so you can be specific about your career growth. Her personal coaching is even more targeted with options to match your budget, timeline, and objectives. If you’re struggling to find your next role or how to focus your efforts, it is worth your time to explore her resources and one-on-one coaching.

🔇 Silence Will NOT Get You Found Shortly after I engaged with CHRISTINE C. GRAVES, I stopped thinking about job searching as submitting resumes, cover letters, and applications. I started thinking about it as being present where decisions are influenced. LinkedIn. Industry circles. Alumni networks. Trusted communities. Neighbors, colleagues, former customers. (You'll be pleasantly surprised at how willing people are to help, and maybe you'll be surprised like I was that some of your better friends, aren't such good friends.) Getting visible is NOT about being loud or performative, it is about being visible and consistent about who I am, what I've done, and how I think. Let's face it, at the director level and higher people aren't typically engaging with a resume. They are engaging with clarity over time. They DON'T want to hire this role twice in a year, so they are taking their time to find the right fit. Visibility doesn't necessarily mean posting every day. It means showing up with intention and contributing real perspective to the conversations that matter in your space. Blending in with the "noise" or the background doesn't work. Thoughtful presence often works to raise your visibility among your spaces.

CHRISTINE C. GRAVES Clarity is the unlock. For most of my career, roles came through results and reputation. When I entered a transition, I realized quickly that being "qualified" isn't enough. You have to be able to speak clearly and confidently about who you are what you do best, and where you can create value next. If YOU can't articulate it, NO ONE can advocate for you, and you certainly don't want them to "wing it" on your behalf. Working with Christine has helped me tighten my story, sharpen my positioning, and show up with purpose instead of reacting to whatever comes my way. She has a way of cutting through the fog and getting to the signal. If you’re in transition, or even considering it, this is the work worth doing. Clarity first. Remember, it is your new "job" finding a role. Dedicate the time and energy to it that you would to a major project, or sales pitch in your working life.
