What is Brian Halligan's current role as a CEO coach and how does he approach this work?

Brian Halligan, founder and former CEO of HubSpot, now primarily coaches CEOs, particularly startup founders going through similar growth journeys as HubSpot experienced. He divides companies into "kids table" (5-50 million in revenue) and "adults table" (50-500 million). His coaching approach combines sharing lessons from his own mistakes with one-on-one vulnerable conversations. Rather than focusing on weaknesses, he helps CEOs understand their challenges, validates their concerns, and shares best practices. Halligan finds this work deeply rewarding as it allows him to give back while helping executives navigate common growth challenges.
