Why we call it Your Career”Helm”

It may look like a funny word. Helm. H E L M. It sounds funny if you say it enough times in a row. There is a reason we chose that word. It is a nautical term which pays homage to the New England roots of its owners. That is a fact. It is also the focal point of all of the action on a boat. It is where the strategy is executed and the direction is given. Command and control people. If you are at the helm, you are in control.  

So the analogy here is that you never have all smooth sailing- in your career or in life. It is all about the skill in which you navigate the storms that will dictate whether or not you complete your voyage. The storms are going to come. That is inevitable. Do you want to be below deck and tossed around by the waves of change or do you want to plot a course, grab the wheel, and reach your destination? We teach people how to navigate their careers. So put on your Captain’s hat, plot your course, get your sea legs under you, and get intentional about your destination!
