As he was going through the last downsizing, (3 in five years) he struggled with what he was going to do, and needed to gain some clarity as to what that was going to be. This prompted Jim to reach out to Michael, a former VP he worked for who is now an executive coach. He helped Jim clear the clutter and to realize that he has choices. He helped him see that with Jim’s life experiences and working knowledge of business that he has a lot to offer others who are going through challenging times in their personal and professional life.
