Men in Transition
It is popularly believed that men are not as willing to seek help in dealing with challenges in their professional lives as women. How true this is in general, I don't know. I can only say that my own clients are pretty well equally divided between men and women.
My experience has convinced me that men are just as capable as women of staying the course in a transition process. Just like women, they are not looking for the next job that is simply a rehash of what they've already done—they are seeking a genuine new beginning.
“The resume should be considered merely a part of the etiquette of work search, something you have to have to follow the rules. When it is seen as the engine that drives it, when it starts to control the scope and direction of a career, something is seriously out of whack.” (p. 59)
