It always helps to get advice, because you get more options and information that you might normally think of by yourself. Try asking TheLeaderGuy a question or check out an already made video with some advice. http://www.theleaderguy.com/ or here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1q5893T5kmU A coach can be helpful in many areas.

As a globally certified career coach I am all about how something is worded to make the best impact and impression. In fact my blog at the moment is all about communication; on resumes, interviewing, wording, first impressions, body language, etc. Your tips are great and I enjoyed reading your post.

Love the concept of self coaching: "You really don't know a subject until you can teach it to someone else"... or, in this case, if you can teach yourself, that is just as good, right?

And one of the reasons you can provide excellent tips on coaching is that you've hired coaches in the past. One of the things I aim for as a coach is planned obsolescence. Over time, I hope that my coaching clients (mostly junior faculty and graduate students) internalize my questions, advice and opinions so that they are able to coach themselves. Bravo!

Taking a step back gets you out of your own stuff and lets you take a more objective look. Nice work! That is such a powerful exercise.
