One of the most common questions I receive from prospective coaching clients and ongoing clients is whether to take a planned sabbatical from work.

That’s a loaded question. A situation that works well for one person can be a disaster for another. And something as intense and “all in” as a sabbatical can especially be either of the extremes.

Instead of making a blanket suggestion, I encourage people to consider four questions when making the decision for themselves.

I present these four questions in detail in my recent article for Forbes. I hope it’s helpful!
