Some firms out there have an official "career coach" who is a few ranks higher than you as part of their HR strategy. You're supposed to set career goals, get feedback, etc from this coach and they're supposed to be your advocate at meetings among the higher ups etc (at least that's my understanding). Do any of you work at firms with this kind of setup? How valuable do you feel these relationships are for employee development and morale?
I question their value because it's very difficult for an employee to be completely open and honest about their goals, intentions, and doubts with a direct superior of theirs.
