Name: Email:

Business coaching has become more and more prevalent in today’s business world. So, what is business coaching? One of the definitions I like is that business coaching is a collaborative, professional relationship that assists and guides individuals, entrepreneurs, professionals, executives, and small business owners to manage and grow their business in an organized manner. The business coach can be a confidant, a strategic advisor, sounding board, creativity partner, an accountability source and a guide. A business coaching alliance is a strategic and proactive business tool that will add value and will build help build your personal and business success.

Now, how does a person know that he or she is ready or is in need of a business coach? Your Strategic Thinking Business Coach offers the following list of situations that indicate you could be ready to benefit from business coaching:
+ your business has no clearly defined vision and mission
+ your business is growing so rapidly they need help staying in control
+ you are working in their business, but not on their business
+ you are showing signs of stress and getting burned out
+ you are having difficulty with a business partner or key employee
+ you are experiencing financial difficulties
+ your business is going through a transition
+ you are losing clients and customers
+ you are feeling lonely and isolated and do not know where to turn
+ you have no succession plan or exit strategy
+ you have no strategic business plan or marketing plan
+ you want to manage and grow their business in a strategic manner
+ you recognize the value of outside advice
+ you simply feel overwhelmed

So, what can business coaching do to address those situations? Your Strategic Thinking Business Coach suggests the following improvements you can make when you work in a business coaching relationship.
+ reduced stress and probability of burning out.
+ a clearly defined focused vision for your business
+ start working “on” your business, instead of just working “in” your business
+ a well defined strategic action plan with clear goals and objectives
+ a strategic marketing plan to retain and gain clients & customers
+ a confidential and trusted business mentor and adviser
+ a commitment to continuous improvement
+ strategic time management
+ eliminating your daily “firefighter” duties and look more to the long term
+ ensuring accountability
+ managed business growth with improved revenue and profit levels
+ developing and documenting systems and processes
+ addressing issues in a timely manner
+ a succession plan and exit strategy
+ improving the financial health of the business
+ a commitment to being a lifelong learner
+ addressing personnel issues in a proactive & timely manner
Your Strategic Thinking Business Coach encourages you to fully realize the benefits of business coaching to strategically and effectively manage and grow your business.

Are your sales where you want them to be? Will you be one of the few who achieves sales or business success or one of the many who have failed to change? Are you tired of being told you are like everyone else? Then you may find my first book on sales of interest. Be the Red Jacket in the Sea of Gray Suits, The Keys to Unlocking Sales available at Amazon or at http://www.processspecialist.com/red-jacket.htm. This book is a reflection of my no-nonsense approach to improving sales to overall business results. If you are truly committed to making sustainable changes, then I can help you secure a positive return on your investment because I focus on executable solutions not telling you the problems you already know you have. From training to corporate (group) coaching to executive one on one coaching, my approach is to assess, create awareness, build a goal driven action plan and then execute. The bottom line question is "Not do you or your employees know it, but do you or they want to do it?" Please call for a free strategy session at 219.759.5601. - Visit Leanne Hoagland-Smith's Website
