4 Signs You Need Executive Coaching

August 13, 2020

The first step towards achieving any goal, whether personally or professionally, is commitment. However, once you have identified an area of your life that you would like to change, knowing what to do next is often challenging.

That’s where executive coaches can help. An executive coach is a partner who provides a fresh perspective on your life, identifies areas for growth, and provides concrete steps you can take to bring about fundamental change.

In the workplace, women often feel like their voices go unheard, or promotions and advancements pass them by because they were afraid to speak up. At Moulton Executive Coaching, our mission is to empower women to forge their own path and take control of their careers. Whether it is the pursuit of senior or executive positions or diversifying your skillset, I will work with you to develop a plan that suits your unique situation.

We need women at all levels, including the top, to change the dynamic, reshape the conversation, to make sure women's voices are heard and heeded, not overlooked and ignored. -Sheryl Sandberg, Chief Operating Officer, Facebook

Still on the fence about whether an executive coach is for you? Here are four telltale signs hiring an executive coach is right for you:

1. Career stagnation

Do you feel stuck in your career? Without an opportunity for growth or learning new skills, we can quickly become bored in our jobs. This lack of motivation influences not only our personal happiness and fulfillment, but it also affects our performance on the job.

As your executive coach, I will work with you to uncover these roadblocks and together we will tackle how to breathe fresh air back into your career.

2. A new job

Promotions or job changes are exciting, but they can also be scary! From learning the scope of the new role to navigating company politics, getting comfortable in a new job usually takes time.

An executive coach will listen to your concerns and work with you to develop a performance plan that fits your situation. When you hire Moulton Executive Coaching, you are hiring over thirty years of experience as an attorney and as an executive in the federal government. I am a seasoned professional skilled in defining corporate goals and helping clients achieve success.

3. Conflict of personalities

Most jobs are not done in a silo. This means that more often than not you will be required to work closely with someone else. As your career becomes more senior, the amount of people you interact with everyday grows significantly.

Navigating these different relationships can be tricky, so an executive coach can help you understand the different motivations of your team, and how you can be a better colleague.

4. Lack of confidence or imposter syndrome

Lack of confidence and feeling “imposter syndrome” is incredibly common in executive coaching. Oftentimes, clients feel inadequate in their jobs despite a series of successes. The role of executive coach is to redirect these feelings of inadequacy and instead highlight our client’s achievements. We achieve this through building confidence and self-esteem.
