Supporting Midlife Career Transitions Through Coaching

Equipping coaches to support clients who are not starting over but evolving into their next stage of meaningful work, this is the ideal resource for both career coaches and HR professionals, as well as students of coaching. This book provides practical advice for career coaches, executive coaches, and HR professionals who support midlife professionals navigating career transitions. Midlife career transitions are becoming the norm, not the exception.

This book bridges this gap, proposing a research-backed framework for coaching midlife clients. It offers psychological insights into the fears, identity shifts, and motivations behind midlife career change, practical coaching tools, strategies, and case studies to guide clients through uncertainty, and a roadmap for portfolio careers, self-employment, and new career pathways. The book ensures coaches have the evidence-based knowledge, tools, and confidence to guide their clients through one of the most significant career transitions of their lives. Equipping coaches to support clients who are not starting over but evolving into their next stage of meaningful work, this is the ideal resource for both career coaches and HR professionals, as well as students of coaching.
