Coming out
In the Coming out program, you will learn to be successful in coming out at work. Together with your coach, you will go through the process of coming out. If necessary, your supervisor can also be involved.
With your coach, you will work on the goal of being yourself at work. You will draw up a plan of approach and discuss important decisions with your coach, who will support you based on knowledge and experience. The support can take the form of conversations, doing exercises, or reading literature. This depends on what suits you best.
You determine the size of the steps and go through the coming phases at your own pace. In this way, you can judge for yourself exactly where you stand and where you still need guidance. It takes 3-9 months to help you with the preparation, implementation, and some aftercare.

Outplacement
During outplacement counseling, Gendertalent helps you to process all feelings, thoughts, emotional connections, team separation, and everything else. Feelings like anger, doubt, and uncertainty need to be sufficiently processed before you start looking for a new job. In doing so, we take into account the changes in social life and the medical trajectory that transgender people often go through.
To find a new job that really suits you, we work with four elements: who am I, what do I want, what can I do and what am I doing? The answers to these questions are essential for finding an environment in which you really fit. We use personality tests, go through your CV with you, play quality games, and have one-to-one conversations. This is how we get to know your qualities, drives, motivation, and learning points.
Together with your coach, you work on your application skills, draft an attractive CV, and practice conducting job interviews. You will learn to present yourself in an elevator pitch with appropriate clothing. Our coaches will help you in your job search and you will also have access to the Genderjobs job bank.

Healthrecovery
During the first intake, you and your employer gain insight into your illness and the underlying factors which we map out, whereby possibilities, limitations, advice, and points for attention for you and your manager emerge. At the end of this phase, it will be determined whether you will continue to work for the employer or will start working somewhere else, or whether you need to work on your recovery first. The duration of the coaching is 3-24 months, depending on which phase of the illness you are in.
In the first option, you will continue to work for your current employer and you will be deployed to resume your work. If necessary, we will adapt the function, tasks, workplace, and working hours. Based on a job analysis, we determine whether the proposed solutions are suitable for you and your employer. If this is the case, the counseling will be phased out.
If it turns out that it would be better to integrate with another employer, we will set the other track in motion. After we have mapped out the requirements that the new employer must meet, we will help you find a suitable workplace. For this, we cooperate with Genderjobs, the specialized employment agency for transgenders. Our coaches also have a large business network at their disposal. When finding a new workplace, the coach will actively work with you to make your new job a success.
Rights and obligations
If you are ill, you may worry about the financial or legal consequences. If necessary, the coach will provide information about the consequences of being ill and advise on possible follow-up steps. They also assess the effect of accepting a new job with a lower salary and how this affects your entitlement to benefits.
Reporting
The employer will be informed of the progress utilizing a progress report.
