How Many of You Have Ever Utilized a Professional Coach, Mentor, or Advisor?
The Difference Between Coaching, Mentoring and Advising • It doesn’t matter what it’s called • It’s not necessarily about fixing anything • Traditional executive coaches only ask thought-provoking questions; we also give advice based on our own GC experience • Traditional mentors provide unstructured advice; we follow a professional protocol • Everyone can use a trusted confidant an can grow as a leader
Benefits of Having an Advisor • Someone you can ask questions of and bounce ideas off • Someone who will push, but not judge you • Someone you can trust to keep information strictly confidential • Someone who can share learnings from similar experiences • Someone who will tap into their professional network to help you
Situations Where an Advisor Can Be Helpful • New company • New role in a company • Acquire or spin a company • Company going public or private • Company going global • Convincing a CEO or Board to do the right thing
Professional Development • Building a stronger team • Growing as a leader • Relationship building • With legal team • With C-Suite • With Board • Transitions • Promoted to GC role • Recruited into GC role • Expanding scope beyond legal • Preparing for next stage of career
Positive Outcomes • Effective transitions • Promotions within current roles • Expanded scopes • Additional resources • Positive performance reviews/perceptions • Stronger relationships internally • Expanded networks externally
