The world of sport is used to the
concept of a coach and trainer as someone who motivates, challenges and
inspires the athlete to better performance and greater achievements. Even those
who excel in a sport rely on a coach. Andy Murray’s tennis improved under Ivan
Lendl’s coaching expertise, finally achieving that Wimbledon win we all celebrated.
Similarly, business owners,
leaders and managers can benefit from having a mentor or coach. I work with
several who came looking for help and support because they were experiencing
one or more of the following seven symptoms.
1.
You believe that the business will suffer if you are not
there all the time; taking a holiday is out of the question
2.
You feel you are married to your business and that it
demands working all hours
3.
Your business does not generate enough profit to justify
your efforts
4.
You have fallen out of love with your business
5.
You have a lot of business experience, however you haven’t
invested in yourself in years
6.
You have lost sight of where the business is going and why
7.
Because you are already good and recognise that it’s going
to take that bit extra to become OUTSTANDING
So what makes a good coach and what
results can you expect from working with one?
Faye, the Managing Director of
Running Imp in Lincoln who I coach said this,
“From
the first time I heard Paula Finch speaking at a business seminar, I knew I
wanted to work with her, by chance or rather fate she became our business coach
at Running Imp on the Growth Accelerator. Paula has transformed my thought process and
techniques allowing me to spend more time on high value areas in the business
by giving some control to the Senior Management Team. We now have a clear
direction of where we are going and have implanted the tools required to ensure
success. If you want impressive high end business mentoring I recommend Paula
to any serious business looking to get results and have a clear plan of the
future ahead."
So if you want results for you, your team and your business, with
funding options available, call Paula on 01778 424640 today – it could be the
one change that makes the biggest difference.
