First-generation professionals — first to graduate college, first in white-collar work, first into corporate America — often navigate workplace norms without the unwritten rules they got from a family that worked there. Coaches here help decode those norms and build the network on purpose.
Typical focuses
- Decoding workplace unwritten rules
- Network building from scratch
- Salary negotiation and self-advocacy
- Imposter dynamics specific to first-gen
- Family-of-origin pressures
