Coaching Clients Leaving Corporate Life Behind
July 15, 2022 | 12:00 - 1:30pm ET
CCEUs- 1 Core Competencies and .5 Resource Development Credits
Many successful individuals receive retirement guidance throughout their careers from professional coaches and mentors, but the primary focus on post-corporate life is on ensuring financial health in retirement.
When a client's corporate career comes to an end - whether by choice or circumstance - it represents a significant life-changing transition that comes with emotional challenges that most people are simply unprepared for. That transition is our focus at LifeWork.
In this program, we will share what we have learned about this transition, namely:
• Emotional challenges surrounding “retirement” transitions
• Redefining the purpose of life without work
• Coaching for the challenge of approaching a “second act” that is beyond planning financial health
Our interactive program will invite coaches to share their thoughts and success around coaching client transitions.
