“Showing up” has taken on different forms with the explosion of remote work and flexible lifestyles. Expectations are all over the map, especially with younger workers. John Neral has a background of showing up every day for work as a middle-school math teacher for over 12 years, then coaching coaches in public schools and ultimately making the leap to start his own coaching practice. He then was pro-active to become a Certified Coach with over 360 hours of training.

The principle of “showing up” is more valuable than ever in today’s economic climate with so many choosing remote work or answering the question “What’s Next?” We discuss some of the showing up strategies and what it takes to change direction mid-career.
