Presenters do defined in-out gigs with a deliverable (usu. report+ presentation). They are impulse function inputs.

Coaches fade in/out with no clear deliverables, just conversations. They are like continuous forcing functions that smoothly start/end at 0.

I don't like the moral hazards of presentation consulting or the faux-therapy mode of coaching.

I've been trying to evolve towards "executive sparring partner" -- the content of a presenter, but the form of a coach.

It is the work I like the most. It's honest, takes intelligence, does not require the pretenses of therapy, keeps moral hazards visible.

In fact, I like it enough that I am considering dropping other kinds of gigs entirely and specializing my branding to "sparring partner"

It's a tough market though. Small (VPs+), and you have to cut out people with no leverage to act. Model needs feedback of live,direct action

@paulbaumgart Not really. That's usually former execs/industry vets, and a different kind of role, working for shareholders, not exec.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes
@paulbaumgart Yeah. Works best when you are working with 1 person with exec level equity. 2+ they have to be internal allies for it to work.
