Why dont you seek coaching from your patners? They are free of charge and buy you drinks from time to time.
One of the comments:
Update: I bought the service from Micheal for $10K, and I have the same experience as brg653, a BIG waste of money. I deeply regret hiring him, because that money is a lot. I got sold on his sales pitch, probably because is delivered in a British accent.
I haven't talked to any of his clients, so my experience is stand-alone. He doesn't respond to emails on time.
The first stage is fixing your resume, and I can tell you the version he developed is pretty bad. It took 3 hours out of the 12 hours you have total of his time to help fix my resume, and the feedback he gave me was very vague each time. Each time he would arrogantly drill on my resume bullet points, but without any concrete suggestions. All he would say is that those points "are not good enough" and "don't get the point across". It was painful, but not in a constructive way. In the end, I confronted on his useless feedback, and he finally gave me concrete feedback. That session took 20 minutes to change my resume. He could have done that all along w/o wasting any time. Yet, the outcome he produced was not of significant better quality.
The second stage is the training / networking, in which he wasted a few hours just talking about things that have no relevance to the topic. For example, he espouses bullshit theories that have no backing, and often reverts on his stance from call to call.
My problem is that he provides no structure. He is just sitting back and answering questions. For $10K, I expect concrete materials and not just conversations. I will say, his points are some times valid. His sales pitch is vague, and so his delivery is not against any promise he made. But there is nothing new, or unique to justify that coaching price. He hasn't added any value to my recruiting process whatsoever.
I haven't used his other materials, and it may be useful. I would refrain from buying his coaching service. I also agree that this whole "ethics over money" thing just seems like a shallow act.
Nobody knows who he is. That's not even his real name.
True?
He’s from BCG, I believe
I haven’t taken any personal coaching from him but heard a lot of his podcast and videos on Firm Consulting website. He seems pretty knowledgeable !
What? This is a real thing? What do they coach?
Bring it, Derek
OP wrote “Carr to elaborate"
I have heard horrible things about him. I would be careful.
Any experience using him, or meeting with him?
I just want to make sure he's not a crook
Are you taking coaching from him ?
Considering it...
I agree C1, just wanted to see if he's worth it.
K1, yes it's real.
Not sure what they coach.
Carr to elaborate
