A coach isn't a sign you don't have it figured out. It's a sign you're serious about what comes next.
Most Ivey grads spend months circling a decision they could have made in one honest conversation.
You finished the MBA. You have the credential, the network, the momentum. And you also have a question you keep circling — about the next role, the next move, what you actually want to build. You mention it to colleagues but they're navigating the same thing. You don't want to look uncertain in front of your manager. So you keep circling.
That is the conversation a coach is made for.
That is the conversation a coach is made for.
A coach isn't a therapist. They won't rehash your past. They're a thinking partner with no agenda other than your success — someone who asks the questions your colleagues won't, reflects back what you can't see yourself, and holds you to the things you said actually matter to you.
The data makes a compelling case. So does every C-suite leader who has one.
