Making Practical Sense of Career Management

A brand new workbook designed to support career management coaches and other professionals. In today's coaching environment, professional coaching frequently involves career coaching. Often coaching engagements, especially in the business or executive arena, include helping clients figure out what to do with their careers, how to advance in a company, and how to conduct a job search. Career coaching is a lucrative business and relatively insulated from economic cycles. Most "career coaching" is not "pure coaching"-it involves a blending of "knowing" (expertise, training) and "not knowing" (coaching). Career Coaches move in and out of these roles to meet their clients' needs. They are at various times consultants, trainers, mentors, or coaches. This self-study workbook emphasizes the importance of coaching-questioning, challenging, and letting the client lead throughout career management and job search engagements.
