Now, those looking for an
attorney career coach can check out our
dedicated lawyer website,
Hot Blue Coaching!
Or you can still request a free consultation from
the original Feroce Coaching site as well.
Finding the right career coach means
finding the right mix of expertise, experience, and
chemistry. I'm Cameron Powell, Founder of Feroce and Certified
Coach, and for most attorneys looking for career change
I offer all three (chemistry, so ineffable, will take a
free coaching
consultation to ferret out).
If you are considering a career in the law and want
sound lawyerly advice on law schools or guidance into your first
legal job, look for a legal
coach. If you want to grow your legal practice, you
may want to ask about treating me as a
lawyer coach or a
lawyer
marketing coach. You can also review my other
career coaches.
Your Attorney Career Coach for
Career Change
Attorney career coaching is one of
my specialties. I am that rare coach who has
changed careers numerous times within the law and
eventually understood why he had to get out. My
own legal career ranges from public service and private
practice to teaching law and acting as in-house lawyer:
● Harvard Law School
● Summer clerkships with the
Attorney General's Office of Alaska; the Governor's
Office of Colorado; Lafili & Van Crombrugghe of
Brussels; Weil, Gotshal & Manges in Washington, D.C.;
and Holland & Hart, Denver
● Judicial clerkship, U.S. District
Court, District of Colorado
● Trial lawyer, Attorney General's
Honor Program, U.S. Department of Justice
● Adjunct Professor Intellectual
Property, The George Washington Law Center
● Litigation and Intellectual
Property Departments, Foley & Lardner
● General Counsel (& VP of Business
Development), SnapNames.com
At each step junction in the road,
I've done exhaustive research, tapped into an
personal
extensive
network of lawyers and other professionals around the
world, and learned from each position and industry in
which I found myself. I have perspective,
and I've learned many ropes. I have special
expertise in the challenges and problems facing
dissatisfied lawyers or those with
business challenges,
and the ways and means of getting out of firms, and even
out of the law. See my bio for the full story (with
versions both long and short).
How I Coach Attorneys Through
Career Change
Coaching is a dialectical process -- and sometimes
gently Socratic -- designed to elicit from you what you
already know . . . but just haven't acted upon. At
other times, I will tell you what I think, and sometimes
that will amount to the first direct yet unbiased advice
or observation about yourself that you will ever hear.
Along the way, we can do career testing similar to the
Myers-Briggs and, more incisively yet, work through our
Strategic
Life Planning Process: The Creation of the Future
Self. We'll discuss your values (what
really matters to you) and uncover your true self -- the
person you were before the accretions from other people
(which I discuss in my capacity as a
legal coach with those
considering legal careers). We'll go back into
your past and rediscover what you really loved to do,
before you lost your way.
And I'll counsel courage, patience, and perseverance
(what you had when you studied for the LSAT), because
changing careers is not easy. The typical course
of coaching for attorneys seeking career change is about
three months, or 12 sessions. The first session is
free, so act now before you lost that impulse for change
