Hire the Right Executive Coach the First Time

The Wrong Coach Costs a Lot More Than the Fee

It is critical that you find someone who works with your personality type and your working style. Get it wrong, and here's what it looks like.

You want a sparring partner. You get a cheerleader. You make decisions in five minutes, and your coach wants you to "sit with it" for two weeks. By month three you're rescheduling sessions. By month six you've paid for coaching you stopped using, and you're back to square one... looking again.

That's dozens of hours of heartache and headache. And possibly hundreds of thousands of dollars in revenue the right coach would have helped you go get.

Answer a few questions about how you think, how you work, and where you want to take the company. We do all the hard work for you. Our AI compares your answers against the coaches in our directory and shows you your best match, plus two runners-up, with the reasons for each.

Small print: We said could. What a coach is worth depends on you, the coach, and the work you both put in. Picking the right one is where it starts.

4. Try them first. Book an intro call and see for yourself if the fit is right. Or if we're right, even.

Questions CEOs Ask Before They Take the Quiz

Q: Do I have to hire the coach you match me with?

A: No. You get an intro call first. If the fit's off, try a runner-up or retake the quiz.

Q: Is this a real personality test?

A: It's a matching quiz built around what makes or breaks a coaching relationship: how you take feedback, how you make decisions, and what you want coaching to change. It won't diagnose you. It will narrow the field fast.

Q: How do you choose the coaches?

Q: What does executive coaching cost?

A: It varies by coach, format, and how often you meet. You pick a budget band in the quiz, and we only match you with coaches inside it.
