FAQs
How is Advising Different From Coaching?
Coaching is a long-term process that uses a mix of coaching techniques and deep questioning to help the coachee focus on personal growth and professional development. The coach merely facilitates helping the coachee to self-direct how to achieve goals on their own.
Advising is more similar to a mentor-mentee relationship, with a stronger focus on immediate outcomes such as problem-solving, ideation, strategic planning, and decision-making. The advisor is more of a thought partner with the client, offering input to help them make significant progress in solving the urgent issue at hand.
CONFERRR has both coaches and advisors on staff, but engages them appropriately based on the needs and desires of each individual client.
NOTE: Neither coaching nor advising is considered therapy, and is not designed to help you work through deeper issues such as anxiety, depression, or trauma. A licensed therapist or physician should be consulted in these instances.
Who Are Your Consiglieres and How Can They Help?
CONFERRR has its own staff of certified HR/Workplace consiglieres, each with 15+ years in at least 3 strategic HR specialties and who has progressed to an extremely high level of expertise. They were chosen from our broader team and have passed a rigorous verification process on their skills, knowledge, and previous experience.
We are not a “marketplace” that matches you to unknown strangers. Our consiglieres work directly for us and have extensive proven experience serving as consultants for our parent company (SDL) and/or Conferrr. Through a careful vetting process when you request to book a session, we match you up with a member of our staff who will ensure you have the highest quality advisory experience possible.
But our real validation relies on customer reviews. Our expert Consiglieres are rated by clients after each engagement, and their ranking affects their likelihood of being matched with future CONFERRR clients. If their ranking goes below 4/5, they’re immediately removed from our advisory pool.
For individuals, our advisors can support you on anything you may be struggling with – everything from disputes with colleagues to verifying your rights under employment laws to career strategies to team management.
For boards and companies, our advisors can also support you with complex HR or workplace issues, including leader development, mergers and acquisitions, People/Talent infrastructure, team development, organizational realignments, succession planning, building high-performing teams, corporate governance, and various talent strategies.
Can I Select My Own Consigliere?
What differentiates our service is that we are not a marketplace of 50K unverified profiles. We leverage our own real staff and personally match your request based on both the type and level of HR expertise you require as well as the availability of our Consiglieres. We are confident that you will have a wonderful experience with your assigned match.
If you have a subpar experience, please inform us asap via the brief feedback form you will receive, and we’ll do our best to rectify the situation.
What are Advisory Sessions Like and Are They Truly Confidential?
First of all, yes, your advisory sessions (and any submitted documents) will be kept confidential. Each of our Consiglieres has already signed an extensive Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) and Privacy Agreement. In addition, CONFERRR prioritizes the safety of your data, as per our CONFERRR Privacy Policy.
In regard to what you will experience, once you submit your brief request form and payment, our intake team will immediately analyze your request and appoint an HR consigliere who specializes in your topic(s) of concern. You will be provided with a link to schedule a convenient 45-minute meeting for both of you via your preference of phone or video.
Up to two (2) email follow-ups are included in the price of the consultation, as your Consigliere may desire to provide you with templates, sample verbiage, document reviews, resource links, or other supplementary support.
What Types of Topics Can I Discuss, as an Individual Representing Myself?
Our Consiglieres are specialists on any topic relating to HR, careers or the workplace. You can discuss any topic(s) you desire.
Examples of topics for which individual clients have sought our advice and counsel in the past include but are not limited to:
- Shifting to a return to office mandate
- Managing conflict with boss or coworkers
- Brainstorm strategy to troubleshoot issues at work
- Positioning to be considered for a promotion
- Dealing with changes in management, leadership and/or organizational structure
- Navigating a toxic work environment
- Managing a career transition or adjusting to a new role
- Expanding their support network and building more professional advocates
- Better managing up or down their organization
- Better handling stress management, self-care, work/life balance or well-being
- Changes in team composition
- Dealing with changes in how work is executed
- Handling increased hours and workplace demands

Am I Betraying My Company, Putting My Job at Risk, or Need to Ask My Employer's Permission?
Absolutely not! We leave the level and amount of information you decide to share with us up to you. And no, you do not need your manager or HR’s approval to use CONFERRR.
We will never ask you to share confidential information about your employer or to go against company policies. We will, however, advise you on how to best work within any legal and factual parameters. Your conversations remain private, and employers do not receive individual-level information about who uses the service or what is discussed.
As an added layer of protection for you, all our staff sign comprehensive non-disclosure agreements (NDAs).
