The Leadership Mind Find Your True Career Direction & Get Your Dream Job with Horst Govin
In today's episode, Massimo is joined by Horst Govin, who specializes in helping accomplished professionals take the next step in their careers. He runs a coaching program called Job Hunt Bootcamp designed to help people get their next job in 90 days. He has helped his clients get job offers from large Bay Area tech companies as well as startups and small/mid-sized companies.
Horst is a Silicon Valley veteran and spent two decades working in product management, partnerships, business development, and everything in between. He left his job at Apple in 2015 and became a career coach. He holds an engineering degree from MIT.
He feels privileged to be able to use his coaching skills, leadership experience, perspective, and empathy to help others. When he’s not working, he enjoys playing drums in his band, practicing yoga, getting outside in nature, and volunteering.
Highlights from today's podcast include:
- How his self-image and expectation in high school sent him down a path of an unfulfilling career.
- How a chance encounter with a career coach changed his world and ultimately help him realize who he really was meant to be. This work led him to become a carer coach himself.
- His work today focuses on helping people find their dream job in 90 days by helping them understand their values, what they truly enjoy doing, and combat imposture syndrome.
- We talk about how the ability to believe in yourself and own the incredible story that each of our lives has to tell is the path to a fulfilling life and career.
