The UNSSC Executive Coaching programme for Junior Professional Officers (JPO) is dedicated to providing JPOs with valuable insights and practical guidance to enhance their effectiveness in achieving their career advancement goals and aspirations. Through this coaching, JPOs can gain greater alignment, focus, and confidence as they navigate their chosen career paths within the UN system.
Coaching is a learning process: it changes the way we observe ourselves and others, or engage in a specific situation. We work on ourselves together with the coach.
The UNSSC Executive Coaching for JPOs package offers the opportunity, space, structure, and crucially the psychological safety, for staff to reflect, contextualise, learn, and grow.
The sessions will cover key aspects of career planning, including exploring career vision, creating a career narrative, reflecting on challenges and relationships, and developing good leadership and management practices. Additionally, it helps JPOs identify their strengths for successful applications and interviews. The coaching aims to provide JPOs with insights that enable them to be more effective in achieving their career advancement goals and aspirations with greater alignment, focus, and confidence.
Our coaching services are delivered by highly experienced and credentialed coaches who work in our programmes, allowing them insight into the UN context. You can benefit from one-on-one coaching sessions, to discuss and find meaningful learning while working to reach your goals and vision.
If you have already worked with one of our coaches, you are welcome to request to work with the same one. If this is your first coaching experience, we will contact you after your enrolment has been approved in order to pair you with one of our coaches, according to your specific needs.
