If you are a business coach or even considering hiring a business coach, what methodology do you infuse within your practice? During the last 10 years, I have observed two distinct methodologies.
The first approach is the Yard by Yard. Within this methodology, the client looks to the future and established what some call BHAG (Big Hairy & Audacious Goals). Plans are established and tactics are created to move forward yard by yard. Excitement reigns as the client eagerly looks forward to the future in anticipation of achieving these goals and becoming the Master of Success.
However, what happens in many cases is just the opposite. The Yard by Yard approach is much harder than the coaching client realizes. Instead of being viewed as just a few feet, the yard is viewed as a mile long because success is not easily achieved. Now an attitude of failure kicks in and each yard becomes even harder than the yard before. The road to success is now filled with obstacles that appear to be mountains instead of molehills.
The other approach is Inch by Inch. Basically, this methodology looks at the elephant in the room and begins to nibble away at it bite by bite. The client knows what he or she wants, but this coach knows that yard by yard is very hard.
So, the business coach shows how to turn those big hairy audacious goals or BHAG into much smaller and more manageable goals. Now the goal to master success comes much easier. A business coach who infuses a proven goal setting and goal achievement process within their business understands that inch by inch are truly a cinch.
If you want to increase your business success as a business coach to get to where you want to go as you travel the road to success, then maybe you need to determine if you are doing the yard by yard is very hard or inch by inch is a cinch methodology.
