 As a Now What?® career transition coach, Sandra
Schiff has worked with different organizations to
develop transition programs. These programs are
designed to provide individuals with direction and
purpose as they move forward. Transition coaches
like Sandra Schiff include the following phases in
any effective life transition program:
- Beginning. The first phase establishes the
transition through which an individual is going. The
coach encourages that person to declare his or her
needs and values, which will be upheld throughout
the coaching process. The blocks to clarity are
examined.

3. Life Transition Coaching
 - Creating. The coach helps the individual explore
future options and possibilities during this phase. For
additional reinforcement, the coach also helps
identify key people who can provide support.
- Maintaining. During the last phase, the coach
ensures that the individual is following the plans and
focusing on opportunities identified in the prior
sessions. Any challenge or victory that has occurred
is also discussed to encourage the individual to
welcome change and move forward.
