Tom Fudge: It's possible that you've felt stuck in your job and you're ready to move ahead. You may have given some thought to what you're next step will be and how you should go about it. Some people today are going about it by hiring a professional, namely an executive coach.
Executive coaches used to be viewed as trouble-shooters hired by a business to counsel a manager that isn't quite doing the job. In other words, if your boss wanted you to talk with an executive coach that was not good news. But today things are so different. People are pleased to have executive coaches. The message seems to be, if you need a coach, you're an executive or entrepreneur with great talent and potential. All you need is a little more guidance to help you move to the big time.
