About a Career as an Executive Coach

Imagine having a rewarding, high-paying career where executives turn to you for guidance.

As an executive coach you could be hired by corporations to work with their chief executives or rising stars. You could influence C-level executives, young managers with high potential, or other employees in leadership positions important to the organization’s success.

For employees, working with an executive coach can be a sign of success. As Forbes reported: “What was stigma (‘You’re so broken you need a coach?’) has become status symbol (‘You’re so valuable you get a coach?’).”

As an executive coach, you could advise executives on business matters and leadership skills. In addition, 76% of executive coaches surveyed by Harvard Business Review help their clients with personal matters such as life purpose and work/life balance.

It’s no wonder executive coaches can earn thousands of dollars per day, with a median fee of $500 per hour, according to Harvard Business Review.

Could you be an executive coach? To command respect and be credible with clients, executive coaches should have leadership experience in business or other organizations.

You will find a wealth of insight in these pages about finding clients, organizing your business, running that business, and yes, charging for what you do. This guide is a must-read for anyone considering entering (or even already in) the world of business consulting
