What is a Professional Development Coach

Why "professional development?" This is how you present yourself in your professional environment so that you are appreciated, admired and respected by all those who come in contact with you.

Unfortunately, sometimes, even in the most favorable of circumstances, it is virtually impossible for you to do whatever it is you want to do just by yourself. It simply can't be done, no matter how much you want it, how hard you try or how important you know it to be.

When you find yourself in that situation, look to an external influence - a coach, guide, mentor or advisor. More than anything else this person is to keep you mindful of things to be done, knowledgeable of how to do them, and motivated to get them completed.
