A horse-drawn coach was once defined as "a vehicle for taking very esteemed people from where they are to where they want to be." I see myself as taking my business clients from where they are to where they want to be by coaching them to improve their management skills and performance and, thereby, their business outcomes, particularly their profits.
It is usually an abundance of profits that provide an abundance of options and freedom and quality of life for my clients so, while business is about more than just profits, profits are the enabler of whatever else rates as important with my clients.
I keep my eye on improving profits as a measure of the effectiveness and appropriateness of what I am doing with my clients. If they are going up, I'm on the right track; but if they are going down, it's time to re-evaluate the strategies and change direction.
Business Coaching; Owners and/or managers of small to medium businesses who have decision-making authority.
Here I work with the owner (or a manager with authority to enact coaching outcomes) one-on-one to facilitate improvements in their management skills. The process usually entails our:
- Clarifying my client's goals
- Facilitating a change in their perception of or perspective on their business and personal challenges (what we sometimes term "transforming mindsets and motives").
- Facilitating their acquisition of any new knowledge or skills required to move them swifty, safely and surely to their goals.
- Weekly or bi-monthly coaching sessions to improve their performance across their new skills and knowledge so that their results improve rapidly and substantially.
What if it doesn't work for me?
- Firstly, I measure all prospective clients' potential for improvement before making any offer of coaching. If there is not strong evidence that they will improve their profitability by a measure that is at least twice my fee, I will not make an offer of coaching in the first place.
- Secondly, I monitor monetary progress from the beginning. If I don't see quantifiable improvements within three months of commencement I may advise termination of the agreement.
- Thirdly, I provide all my clients with the right to terminate any time after their fourth month of coaching if they feel they are not gaining value for money from the exercise (if that is the case, the Coach is likely to have recommended termination first).
What to do next?
