The Call for Transition
You are an Executive with years of experience, success and professional satisfaction, but – beyond what can be perceived externally, there’s a voice that is calling you to your new life-cycle, that you can no longer ignore.
On a rational level you know you should make a change, but the idea of making missteps, of putting at risk some of your achievements and securities, is holding you back to the predictability of the present.
Yet, you strongly feel this call to change, to find a new path for you, to create the space for your new identity to express.
You are aware – and you directly experienced it many time – that every success is built by putting yourself at the helm, with clear vision, direction, and perseverance. So you perfectly know that the answer you’re looking for is not coming from your industry, your company or your family, it is coming from you.
You know it.
Today you have the chance to decide and plan what your future will be, to bring momentum to your life, to reactivate your energy and enjoy new wins.
Don’t turn away from yourself.
You have the opportunity to enter a new phase of life designed by you, to get enthusiasm and a sense of action. A full, mature, congruent, relevant and valuable new phase… For your personal success.
And you don’t have to be alone in this.
You need to reorder your priorities, gain clarity, and define a solid roadmap. You need experienced partners at your side, specialised in supporting career transitions, who have experienced many by themselves and can give you stimuli and right tools.
You need experts in transitions, and we are here to help you defining and expressing your new identity, reaching higher levels of awareness, and designing the next stages of your life.

About the Program
Transition Mastery is organised in twelve individual coaching sessions of 90 minutes with two coaches, held on-line, and planned over six months.
The presence of two coaches simultaneously is a unique feature in the panorama of individual coaching, and represents a mind-blowing accelerator of systemic development.
Working with two coaches allows to amplify:
- The quality and the depth of observation of systemic patterns.
- The number of alternative perspectives, insights and models.
The program is divided into two parts:
PART 1 – CLARITY: six transition coaching sessions to discover your values, purpose, identity, and vision, in order to reach a deep level of clarity about your next career and life phase. At the end of this first program section you’ll be resourced and aware about the systemic sustainability of your vision, and free to move into the designing of your future foundations.
PART 2 – RE-BIRTH: six sessions to explore your internal enablers, and the external market, build your brand identity, define the action plan and much more. This part of the program represents the transition from the internal need of a major change, to the practical design of your vision and to a detailed roadmap of your future.
In-between sessions, we’ll continuously support your work by proposing impactful advice, exercises, and resources to implement your Transition Action Plan.
We know very well that you are unique, thus your transition will be unique too.
For this reason, our Transition Mastery program is 100% tailor-made: within the 2-part program, we select from our experienced and certified repertoire the most suitable tools and approaches for your specific challenges and the context you are in.
The program is conducted in English, but we can equally hold it in Italian, and French, as you prefer.

What is a Transition:
Transition Vs. Change
A transition is a process that involves a redefinition of your identity, allowing yourself to define your new priorities, to align your entire system, and to optimally allocate time and energy in order to design and live the great changes in your life.
Often, the words ‘change’ and ‘transition’ are considered synonyms, but they aren’t. In fact, change is situational, while transition is about identity and awareness.
Let’s make an example: finding a new job or moving to a new company are changes, but doing that redesigning your professional direction is a transition (e.g. from being a manager in a company to becoming an entrepreneur or a freelance consultant). In other words: change is about making, transition is about being.
For this reason, transitions impact on your whole system: personal and professional, but they also impact on your family, and on the society you live in. That’s why for major transitions you may need professional help to guide you through it.
