The First 90 Days: Career Transition Coaching for Ambitious Professionals

A smart way to become proactive about managing your transition into a new role and setting yourself up for success from day one.

Who is it for?

This programme is for ambitious  professionals who:

  • Have just been promoted to a new role within the same organisation or

  • Have just transitioned into a new role in a different organisation, or

  • Have changed careers completely

Starting a new role is exciting. It presents a great opportunity to take on new challenges that will help you grow.

At the same time, it can be daunting and make you feel vulnerable. You need to learn a lot fast, build new relationships, and establish yourself as a professional in a new environment.

This programme is designed to help you confidently navigate through the challenges of moving into a new working environment and to be strategic in developing your career from day one.

This programme will help you embrace and manage change efficiently and: 

  • Create a great first impression and effectively develop your personal brand

  • Set realistic goals and develop a clear plan to achieve them

  • Learn how to use your unique strengths, skills and experience to succeed in your role

  • Increase your confidence, resilience and ability to communicate with more presence and impact

  • Adopt new habits to embrace change and take positive action


I signed up for the First 90 Days Programme because I believe that coaching really helps you to develop your own potential further, no matter at what stage you are at in your professional career.

Tami proved to be the best coach ever. Having been a lawyer herself, she completely understands the legal culture and its perks and burdens. But what really stands out is her multicultural background, and her ability to listen and to help you achieve what you are looking for.

Coaching feeds from our own self-awareness. So it is really important to reflect upon and answer the questions she provides as it makes you consider things in more depth. She is also a fantastic listener and promoter of your best self. I can’t praise her highly enough.

The sessions were really helpful to get me to start thinking about what to expect from private practice to in-house. It was great to have a sounding board whilst also being challenged by Tami to any areas of concern that I may have had and approach them from angles I may not have thought of.

When I started working together with Tami, I was feeling very frustrated about my previous job, dealing with difficult stakeholders and struggling to navigate its politics environment. I was also feeling nervous about starting a new job. I feel more confident at doing my job.
