LSM Consulting provides a flexible, tailored
outplacement program, supporting and guiding clients in pursuing their
career aspirations. LSM Consulting is unique in comparison to other
outplacement firms as our consultants in addition to providing clients
with coaching and support also provide an advocacy program.
In the advocacy program our consultant and
client work closely together drawing on each other’s industry knowledge
to develop a mutually agreed to list of targeted employers. Armed with
this list our consultant hones in on potential hiring managers and
introduces our client in an honest yet compelling fashion. The ideal out
come being a meeting between our client and the prospective employer.
LSM Consulting takes on the task of cold calls, the task most
outplacement clients dread and therefore fail to do. In a recent
executive level program our consultant partnered with a client and
achieved the ideal result.
Our client a US citizen, while recognizing
the need for flexibility in both industry and location in his career
search, had determined for personal reasons that his ideal career
opportunity would be in Toronto with a major international miner. To add
to the challenge our client was not interested in Canada’s largest
integrated miner, which left only a handful of 'qualified' potential
employers during a time when the mining industry was in a declining
mode.
Through persistence and diligence LSM
Consulting was able to generate interest with one of Canada’s premier
international nickel miners. Once interest was established, we supported
our client in negotiating a two year contract to become the company’s
Chief Development Officer, working for the CEO, COO and CFO.
In just six weeks after joining the company
our client was appointed to the position of Executive Vice President and
CFO of this Canadian based International nickel miner. Our client
achieved his ideal career opportunity in his preferred location in a
period of six months as a result of the LSM Consulting advocacy program.
