Business Coach San Diego CA
What is a business coach? My version is that I help you meet your goals, not by telling you what to do, but asking you questions that help you (coaching) define the activities you do best that will lead to meeting those goals. We do this together in a series of two hour meetings, usually monthly, sometimes more frequently depending upon the urgency of your situation. The main purpose of my meeting with you is to determine what are the “blocks” that are stopping you from attaining your goals? Once determining the blocks together we can decide on the many options to remove the blocks. Usually when left on our own we do not see options to the things that block our paths to meeting our goals. Often having an experienced coach to ask us questions and make suggestions can create a number of workable and successful options.
The next and perhaps the most valuable aspect of having a business coach is being held accountable for the commitments you make. Often we commitments to our self, but this not nearly as powerful as making it to someone we respect whom we know will hold us accountable. Each time we meet I will ask you if you have kept the commitments from our last meetings. I will also ask each time if your activities you are spending your time on will lead to meeting your goals. This is one of the most crucial issues for most of us, we often find our selves fighting fires on a daily basis and not moving forward.
A business coach is different than a business consultant; a consultant evaluates what is happening and then makes concrete recommendations. The consulting process is not really a teaching or coaching process, this does not mean it is not highly valuable, just different.
