Well I’d certainly love working in whatever industry you’re in because myself, the myriad of executives I’ve recruited and coached, and my own peer network have the completely opposite experience. Getting a coach indicates that you’re not getting that feedback in your existing organization and you have to outsource it.

Executives aren't an industry, they can come from anywhere. From tech to government.

Or both, one client was a government appointee who came from an executive position in publishing, she knew she couldn't take the same style into a much less private organization. Turns out she brought her new understanding and style back into private life & business.

If you realize you don't really have to be blunt & jerky, even playing the critic archetype isn't so necessary, and it's more like a habit maybe, it turns out that this realization often opens new life opportunities and mental pathways...
