September 26, 2022Coaching Real Leaders returns October 3 for another season of real-life coaching sessions, where host and longtime executive coach Muriel Wilkins takes you behind closed doors as she helps executives, managers, and entrepreneurs work through the challenges they face.
This season, Muriel coaches real leaders from around the globe who are struggling with questions like:
- How do I make a career change later in life?
- How do I transition from a corporate job to an entrepreneurial one – and make the most of it?
- How do I manage my career when I don’t have a clear path ahead of me?
Listen in for new coaching sessions, new career challenges, and new leadership lessons.
MURIEL WILKINS: Coaching Real Leaders is back this fall. Join me as I coach leaders from around the globe as they tackle some of the toughest professional problems they’re facing at work today. You’ll listen in on real coaching sessions, addressing issues like: How do I make a career change later in life?
SPEAKER 2: I did it before, so I want to do it again. That combination of an excellent professional record that is aligned with what is required in this position’s relationship-building, cultural, and international competencies, a knowledge of the organizational DNA that I have there. And that is definitely a competitive edge.
MURIEL WILKINS: How do I transition from a corporate job to an entrepreneurial one and make the most of it?
SPEAKER 3: There’s a mindset shift that needs to happen, and maybe this just naturally happens over time. The more you are out of corporate environment and you are in a consultant role, you become less focused on the, “I’ve got to prove myself.” But truth be told, I think I was like that in the corporate environment, as well. Every year was a chance to be promoted. Every year was a chance to smash another goal.
MURIEL WILKINS: And how do I better advocate for myself when I don’t have a clear career path ahead of me?
SPEAKER 4: I think the conversation which I have not had is: To get to that executive level, which I’ve aiming for, what do I need to do? What are the stepping stones to get there? If I continue to deliver in my current role, will that lead me there one day? Or if not, then maybe have some sort of a session… What could be the other things I could be doing to position myself to get there?
