Richard Phillips, Career Counselor and Coach
I am a career counselor and coach with over 15 years experience working
with groups and individuals. I have been involved in career development
projects at Sun Microsystems, Hewlett Packard, Intel, Agilent Technologies
and many other companies. Prior to starting my career coaching business
in 1991, I was Training Manager for a division of the Dun and Bradstreet
Company. Also included in my background are experience in family-owned
businesses and the public school system.
The focus of my work is to help talented and
motivated professionals achieve long-term career satisfaction and prosperity.
I believe that when people experience the freedom to do their best work
they give maximum benefit to themselves, their organizations and their
communities.
My education includes a Bachelor's in Behavioral Science and
a Master's degree in Counseling, as well as on-going professional development
courses and seminars.
My clients work at some of the most well-known companies in the
Silicon Valley and some that are on their way to becoming well-known. I
have a thorough familiarity with the issues and working environments that
characterize life in Silicon Valley.
When I take a break from helping my clients achieve success in
their careers, I'm to be found behind the lens of a camera or at the helm
of my small sailboat trying to master the finer points of seamanship.
