Senior leaders (VP through C-suite) who have just left or are about to leave a high-comp corporate role and need to land their next executive position fast. They are fighting a shrinking average executive tenure, an AI-driven restructuring wave, and a hidden job market where 85% of roles never get posted publicly.
Average C-suite tenure has fallen to 4.8 years in 2026 vs. 7.5 years a decade ago, meaning the pool of executives needing transition support is turning over faster than ever before (JRG Partners, July 2026).
The tech industry alone cut nearly 80,000 jobs in Q1 2026 with almost 50% attributed to AI, and white-collar sectors including finance and professional services have cut jobs on net for three straight years, flooding the market with senior talent urgently needing positioning help (Tom's Hardware, April 2026).
The executive coaching and leadership development market hit $112.98 billion in 2026, up from $103.56 billion in 2025, growing at 9.11% CAGR — directly driven by C-suite succession gaps and compressed corporate strategy cycles that push more leaders into self-funded transition programs (Mordor Intelligence, August 2026).
