What do you know about the “Club?”

• Perhaps you know us from our outplacement services.
Almost 400 organizations have trusted The Five
O’Clock Club to help their former employees, giving
each employee an affordable outplacement package of
at least one year! Some were major downsizings across
the country, and others were just a few employees.
Remember us for your outplacement needs.
• Or perhaps you know us from our highly popular and
informative HR Network Breakfasts, which have
been attended by 2,215 separate individuals across
the country over the past 7 years.
• Or you may know us because we offer free help to
HR professionals, managers and executives who have
lost their jobs – even if they are in outplacement else-
where. They each get free career coaching along with a
free set of our books and a boxed set of our audio
CDs. The materials alone retail for over $200!
• You receive our impressive monthly magazine, chock
full of the topics needed by HR executives as well as
ideas for developing your own career.

reat change means great
opportunity. Whether you are
in HR or are a staff manager
elsewhere in your organization, these
are exciting times. People are a compa-
ny’s greatest asset, and it’s time to make
the most of your people.
Employee performance and reten-
tion are the name of the game. In some
surveys, 80% of employees say they will
leave when the market gets better. By
taking steps now that the economy is
on the verge of recovery, you can pre-
vent this from happening to your
organization.
Both HR and executive manage-
ment have a role in driving the required
change and making sure every executive
and manager has bought into the new
direction, understands why it’s impor-
tant, and knows what to do next.
For Executives:
· Employee Engagement Programs
Using the Club's methodology, we help
organizations identify gaps and opportuni-
ties, and then facilitate solutions that will
help to increase employee motivation,
retain top talent, and ensure alignment of
employee efforts with Management's
vision. Our approach is founded on our
experience that employees are an organiza-
tion's most valuable asset.
· Leadership Development. Our offer-
ings include both one-on-one and group
training in Situational Leadership, train-
ing/assessment in Leadership
Competencies, and, showing managers
how to coach their staff to better perform-
ance. These programs result in better man-
agers and leaders, and more effective organ-
izations. In addition, Five O’Clock Club
Executive Coaches, following our method-
ology, are expert at “difficult” employee
relations issues, such as managing non-per-
Leadership Council). The 5OCC
Onboarding process for executives will
enable the new executive to assimilate into
the new company with confidence by
focusing on three key areas:
· Assessing their strengths and how to
use them in the new organization. Used in
conjunction with our book, “Navigating
Your Career.”
· Defining the company culture and
working successfully in
the new culture.
· Establishing a com-
mon understanding of
expectations using a
manager assimilation
process with the people
in their organization.
· Executive Coaching and Executive
Development – a highly structured
approach used by all of our Executive
Coaches. Includes coach peer review. Used
in conjunction with our book, “Navigating
Your Career.” Ask for a detailed description
of these programs.

for Executives (including presentation
feedback)
For the Organization:
· Career Development Programs for
shops. For those who have a
few years to go until retire-
ment, those who have the
option to retire, or those of
a certain age who are losing
their jobs and want to con-
sider their options. This is a
not a financial planning
seminar. Instead, we help individuals deter-
mine their retirement activities, and what
of assignments end early) and in fact get the
least coaching of all groups studied. (Judge

all employees - from the most senior
on down. Help your employees see that
they have a future with your organiza-
tion and help them to be more in con-
trol of their careers. We have delivered
these seminars to thousands of
employees -- from 2-hour seminars for
every employee from the top down to 4
half-day seminars for selected groups.
The basic program always involves
assessment, which results in a career
plan for each person and a sense of
control over their future.
· Highly experienced Motivational
Speakers get employees moving again!
· Virtual Team Building Training and
Coaching
To stay competitive as well as to
reduce costs organizations are embracing
virtual collaboration. If managed properly,
virtual teams can be smarter than tradition-
al teams and ultimately more effective.
And the complexities of communication
over time, distance, cultures and space can
be managed for increased results. This
training with a coaching component will
focus on learning how to be an effective
leader of virtual teams.

Used in conjunction with our book,
“Achieving the Good Life After 50.”
· Team Development: Consultation &
Facilitation customized to suit your needs
· Myers Briggs – MBTI for Teams: How
an individual prefers to work influences how
they work individually and in teams. The
MBTI team assessment helps team members
understand their own working preferences,
those of the other team members and how
the team is working together. With this
information, teams can assess and increase
their communication, problem solving and
decision making processes.

held back because of incomplete and insuf-
ficient educational credentials: a 2-hour
seminar entitled “Educational Options for
Success,” which details credentialing for
advancement and career change

The Five O’Clock Club
... a name you can trust
The Five O’Clock Club has been
privately owned by its founders since
1978. We are a dedicated team of
individuals who care about each other
and our clients.

The Five O’Clock Club Executive Coaching Advantage

u A Team Effort: Our tightly-knit Guild of senior career coaches works closely together. They turn to each other for guidance.
For Executive Coaching, after the primary coach has worked with your employee for four or five hours, a coach peer will review the
situation: to assess the direction of the coaching, brainstorm the situation, and to help develop a course correction, if called for.

v A Proven Methodology that is the industry standard —based on over three decades of research. Employees better under-
stand themselves and their organizations, how they fit in, and what they can do to improve their relationships with bosses, peers,
subordinates and clients, and how they can most effectively help the organization to move ahead. Our text Navigating Your Career,
is used by professionals, managers and executives in for-profit and not-for-profit organizations of all sizes.

w Devoted Coaches who truly care what happens to the individual. Unlike firms where the coaches are over-burdened with
a too-heavy client load, our coaches are responsive to their clients, use best practices, brainstorm with other coaches about their
clients, and are excited about each assignment because it means an opportunity to do the best for each client.
