What is Career Transition Coaching?
Career transition coaching is a personalized educational process where we will teach you more about what you need to succeed and thrive as you move towards your personal career goals.
In most companies, moving up the corporate ladder involves significant changes in your daily work activities. For example, working as a manager is incredibly different from working on a retail store floor. The skills you’ve used to succeed in your current role aren’t necessarily the skills you need for another position.
Career transition coaching will help you identify the specific skills you need for your career advancement, help you learn those skills, and position you for success within your organization.
Coaching can also help you advance in the first place. Many businesses like employees who take the initiative, so just going through coaching can earn you more recognition than people who never try to better themselves may receive.
What Are The Main Elements Of Career Transition Coaching?
While every situation is different, four competencies are especially important for any leadership role:
- 1
Self-Awareness
Self-awareness is the ability to understand what you know, what you are capable of, and your strengths and weaknesses. It is critical for leadership positions because nobody wants to work under bosses who aren’t aware of their limitations or what they should expect from others. Simultaneously, proper training can help you develop your awareness of your perceptions and assumptions as they relate to decision making, so you’re in a better position to get the jobs you want.
Learning Agility
Learning agility covers how fast you can retain and apply new information. This is necessary for almost every leadership position, except for those at highly predictable jobs where there are few surprises during the regular operations. Training in this category can help you develop new and useful skills, understand more about trends within your industry, and otherwise stay ahead of your competitors.
Influence
Influence is the ability to use various tools to achieve your goals. To a lesser extent, influence also covers optimizing the use of your resources so you can extract the greatest benefits from them. Influence is also useful for securing contracts, gaining acknowledgment, and otherwise becoming the type of leader employers want.
Communication
Communication is key to your advancement in most fields, whether that means working with customers, leading a team of junior employees, or even finding a job in the first place. Outstanding communicators are often better at getting things done than people who have similar qualifications but aren’t as good at interacting with people.
There has never been a better time to start creating real change in your life.

Maeve creates a very warm, caring environment. However, she is not afraid to challenge a person or create awareness when required. I would highly recommend Maeve as a coach as I thoroughly enjoyed each of my sessions with her.
Diane, Vernon
Maeve supported me to address my relationship with my work here, which is something I was struggling to do alone. Not only did this enable me to improve my work but also to reflect more often on myself. Maeve is a great coach.
RBD, Copenhagen
Maeve is a skillful coach who will quickly partner with you to achieve your goals. She is a pleasure to work with while also holding you accountable to take clear action in your life. In short, she’s a kind and generous change agent.
Corey S, USA
Over the course of 6 sessions with Maeve, my environment changed dramatically and my sessions reflected that. I really felt the impact of the sessions weeks and months later when I would catch myself thinking on the things we had discussed or find myself in situations that create the kinds of feelings Maeve had taught me how to manage.
Anonymous
I was quite apprehensive about my ability to change and worried about letting someone down though I hadn’t met them yet. I found the sessions to be a very non-judgmental space and that ultimately I was the one leading them so it was always in my power to manage the topic. I was perfectly matched with Maeve as a coach and I would highly recommend her.

Maeve’s blatant warmth, empathy and kindness are immediately apparent. After just one session, Maeve helped me identify areas of interest for us to work on and gave me actionable steps towards improving those areas. This has helped me manage challenges and apply methods she gave me during those difficult times. I hope to work with Maeve again in the future.

Frequently Asked Questions
Here are some of the most common questions people have about career transition coaching.
It takes as long as it needs. Unlike most forms of education, coaching isn’t a one-and-done process where everyone learns at the same rate. Some people only need one or two calls, while others receive coaching for years to stay on top of the latest trends and techniques.
Some people say that the only constant in life is change, and we’ve seen that with people just like you.
Career transition coaching is highly personalized. You are unique, so the coaching strategies that work for you aren’t the same as those that work with other people. We’re proud to use our experience helping people just like you to find out what you actually need (and that’s not always what you think you need).
Outside of the coaching itself, which normally takes the place of regular phone calls and discussions, you can expect three things.
First, you’ll get the strategies and tools you need to succeed in your specific field. These are techniques backed by experience and research, so we can show both how and why they work.
Second, you’ll get consistent support and honest feedback. This ties back to learning self-awareness, including recognizing your limitations and figuring out the best ways to overcome them. Honest, critical evaluations are essential to staying on the right path.
Finally, you can expect accountability. This means that we’ll expect you to do your best, not simply have a phone call and then make no changes in your life. Holding you to consistently high standards is part of the motivation you’ll need to succeed throughout your career.
