What is a Coach?
A business coach is a blend of the above roles, but also offers one unique element that goes above and beyond... accountability! For me as your coach, it's not just about the ideas and systems, it's about how to help you perform to your best and generate the greatest results that you can achieve.
You'll have seen many a sporting coach motivate, educate, and offer constructive guidance to their athletes on how to reach optimum performance. That's what a business coach does - it's only the setting that changes.
As a business owner myself, I know it can be a challenge getting objectivity on the actions we take, and it can be hard to be self-appraising. Even if you are lucky enough to be able to achieve that independently, there are always limits to what your own assessment of your own performance can offer! After all, you are only one person and it's hard to watch your own swing. After all... like the rest of us, you can only ever improve your performance to the level of your own knowledge and experience. That's why the very best sportsmen and women have a coach. It's also why the very best business owners do too. Examples include Eric Schmidt; the CEO of Google! As your coach I provide the important second set of eyes on your activities and choices, and will offer the impartial voice to sense-check your decisions, the extra set of braincells to provide education and inspiration, and the mirror that gets held up to help you really gauge yourself in terms of personal effort and focus. I look forward to hearing from you, and helping you press the 'fast forward' button on your success remote control!
