Abstract

The article shows the influence of socio-economic determinants on professional counseling and coaching. It demonstrates how the changes of the economic system enforce changes in the working methods of professional counselors and coaches. Globalization, the economic crisis, the extension of the labor markets on the one hand and the decrease in the number of employment opportunities on the other hand, and the need to make professional choices with every step of development of the professional career cause traditional counseling to evolve more towards job and career coaching. The present-day labor market needs workers that know their professional inclinations, resources, competencies and know how to use them in the benefit of the organization.
