Do you look forward to going to work more often than not? Does your work challenge you in ways you enjoy and find stimulating? Are you happy with the way your career is going?
If you answered "no" to any of those questions, you are in good company. A 2017 Gallup poll showed that 85% of people globally hate their jobs. Given that we spend about one-third of our adult lives at work, it doesn't make sense to accept that you have to be miserable at your job.
So, how can you turn your current job into a job that you love, or, failing that, find different work that will be a better fit? Working with an executive coach may be the first step.
What does an executive coach do?
Many of us are fortunate to find a number of people who help us along the way in our careers—mentors, bosses, sponsors. Each plays a unique role. But an executive coach fills a very specific niche. The coach is trained to help you define, determine a path to, and achieve your career goals.
