Classroom to Boardroom®
Coaching for educators ready to build fulfilling careers in business, non-profits, or consultancy—without sacrificing their values or identity.
The Problem
Teachers feel disrespected, undervalued and underpaid. They face uncertainty about how to translate their teaching experience into business value, lack clarity on career options, and feel overwhelmed by the job search process.
Teachers fear losing their identity, they doubt their ability to succeed outside education, and they feel isolated in their transition journey.
Educators deserve fulfilling careers that honor their skills and values—even beyond the classroom. Educators also deserve to be paid fairly for the value they deliver. Their impact shouldn’t be limited by traditional roles.
