Is this coaching relevant for someone who is not transitioning from one “corporate world” position to another “corporate world” position?
- affirming they are in the right role for now but shifting how they translate their strengths/interests, delegating/outsourcing differently, etc.
- clarifying a new next role within their same industry and creating a plan to secure that
- identifying, researching, and confirming a totally new direction to a different industry or area of expertise at a similar organizational level or higher — sometimes involving additional certification or education
- exploring whether to stay in an administrative leadership position at a large university and ultimately applying for and securing a private-sector leadership role
- deciding they want to “create” their own next role in a consultancy or a new business and go the more entrepreneurial route, or take a “side hustle” and make it their primary work
- transition from being a business owner or partner to going “in-house” in an executive or leadership capacity to another company
- preparing to transition out of military leadership into the civilian sector, negotiating among three different offers from international companies, and deciding on a best role that aligned all interests and values, that was also geographically close to extended family
- taking a “side hobby” or smaller interest/skillset and elevating it to the focus of a new role
- changing their mind about “I want to sell the company” to instead bringing in a new partner, or hiring new c-suite leadership so they can shift their role in the company
- shifting to part-time “portfolio” approach to work, becoming a “free agent” type contractor
