The Barrett Group, LLC, an executive coaching and career management firm centrally located between Boston and New York City, works with professionals in a wide range of positions throughout the United States, Canada, and the world. Unlike an executive recruiting, or “headhunting,” business, The Barrett Group receives no compensation from hiring corporations. Instead, it works directly for its clients, a select group of high-level managers and other skilled professionals, to assess and document their value in their fields, develop their marketability to the fullest extent, and maximize their chances of achieving the best employment outcomes possible. In business since 1990, The Barrett Group provides an array of professional development services, including career analysis, resume writing, training in communication and presentation skills, and personalized coaching, up to and after hiring.

The Barrett Group began by offering assistance to mechanical engineers interested in advancing their professional opportunities. The company soon expanded to serve as a leading career management firm in its region, coaching clients who worked in manufacturing, defense, law, and rapidly expanding fields such as information technology and biotechnology. Now counted among the foremost providers of executive coaching services, The Barrett Group helps its clients win significant positions at major international firms and organizations, among them Berkshire Hathaway Inc., The Boeing Company, Charles Schwab & Co., Inc., Johnson & Johnson, Time Warner, Inc., and even the United Nations.

Clients of The Barrett Group include professionals with decades of experience who desire to increase their visibility and market value in their current fields, those seeking to make major job changes, recent college graduates, and mid-level executives who want to develop new skills to pursue greater success. The company works with every client with the goal of providing personalized, customized guidance to nurture the skills that define the top performers in each profession.
