Business Coaching
As Business Coaches, we provide support and advice to business owners and entrepreneurs, helping them to recognize ways in which they can improve the effectiveness and efficiency of their business.
There is a misconception that Business Coaches are only used when a company is in trouble or is failing. The reality is that the vast majority of our clients are already healthy, profitable businesses with strong revenue growth but the company’s owners want to make sure that they are realizing the full potential of their businesses.
Our Coaches work with management to improve leadership, employee accountability, teamwork, sales, marketing, communication, goal setting, strategic planning and more. Coaching is usually provided via weekly 90 minute one-on-one meetings although group coaching sessions are also sometimes used.
By helping business owners create and follow structured business plans our coaches are instrumental in improving company performance as well building stronger more cohesive management teams.

Are YOU Coachable?
At my previous employer I “just” was a lowly receptionist, whose only job was to answer phones and greet visitors, until one day when I met my “worst nightmare”. My nightmare wasn’t a person, it was a task, and I want to tell what I learned from conquering that task...
The weak usually do not ask for help, so they stay weak!
Last week Simon and I went to Columbus to visit a woodshop. We weren’t quite sure where we going and just like most men, Simon didn’t want to ask for directions, so it took us an 20 extra minutes to get there. I’ve always wondered why men won't ask for directions. Why...
