FAQs
What is Executive Coaching ?
Coaching allows a client to gain traction on a goal using more skills than their own. To shorten up the learning curve, the Coach assists the Client in moving forward and creating results. Albert Einstein famously said, “Problems cannot be solved with the same mindset that created them.” A coaching conversation allows your mind to expand to new possibilities, helping the client find insights that change their view of the challenge.
I'm so busy, how can I justify time for coaching?
Coaching has the potential to save you time and money because you have access to an expert’s knowledge, skills, feedback and methods. It’s like learning to type when you are used to picking out the letters on the keyboard one by one. Yes, it takes a time investment upfront, but the payoff potential is huge. In fact, SCORE tells us that “Small business owners who receive three or more hours of mentoring report higher revenues and increased growth.” Coaching allows you to compress learnings from decades into days. Discuss your time concerns with us on a complimentary phone call. In addition, we can meet over video call, making fitting it into your schedule as easy as possible.
Does every session go the same way?
Sessions are highly personalized to your own needs and pressing concerns. Sometimes it’s conversational, sometimes brainstorming, and other times we are assessing what's really happening in the topic of interest, or mapping out a plan and action items. Varied forms of coaching/consulting and teaching are used depending on your needs and priorities.
