For a variety of reasons, many lawyers now find themselves in the midst of career
transitions. Some have simply realized that their current places of employment aren't

Whether in a transition voluntarily or not, the task of deciding "what next?" can be
overwhelming, and many don't know what to do or where to look. Lacking support,
they may find themselves making choices in their searches that are ill-advised or even
counter-productive.
NAVIGATING CAREERS IN TRANSITION is intended to provide attorneys in career
transitions with the resources they need to negotiate their journey successfully. With
the support of a professional coach in a confidential group setting, attorneys are
invited to set their goals, map out their strategies and implement steps to achieve
them.
The group setting provides attorneys with a safe environment to set and achieve their
career transition goals and to receive career coaching and consulting as well as peer
mentoring. Group members offer support, non-judgmental accountability, and a wide
range of ideas, perspectives and experience. These connections also enable group
members to extend the reach of their networks.

BENEFITS OF A VIRTUAL COACHING GROUP
