It doesn’t matter what stage you’re in for your business development
A Business Coach can be beneficial.
As you think about your goals for your business, listen to find out why having a Business Coach should be included to help you reach those big goals that you have.
Here's a sneak peak ....
“A coach is part advisor, part sounding board, part cheerleader, part manager and part strategist.” The Business Journal [source: https://daveschoenbeck.com/why-executive-coaching-makes-sense-for-your-company/ ]
Throughout my career as a school psychologist, I sorta fell into teaching, coaching, and mentoring because of my passion for recruitment, retention, and professional development of teachers, school psychologists, school counselors, school social workers, speech and language pathologists, and administrators.
I conducted trainings at the school or district level, as well as at professional conferences at the state, national, and international levels.
Trust me, when I say that when I started on my journey to becoming a school psychologist so that I could help children who were struggling in school like I did, I had no idea that I was going to teach, coach, or mentor adults, let alone enjoy doing it!
But I did! And I still do! That passion has evolved into me pursuing my doctorate with an emphasis in industrial and organizational psychology.
Then I used that knowledge with my experiences in the school systems to improve being a coach and mentor.
In my journey, I have learned the importance of
having a map,
knowing the outcome that I want,
outlining the steps on how to get there,
identifying the materials, strategies, and resources to get into action to reach my goals,
learning how to adapt the journey based on new information while taking action,
how to set realistic goals, and
how to measure progress towards those goals.
One of the toughest parts has been getting people to move out of their comfort zone so that they can reach their desired goal. Not to mention, increasing others’ self-confidence.
When working with administrators, it was always beneficial to be aware of the strategic goals for the school to help keep them focused on identifying appropriate actions to take and how and when to measure the impact of those actions.
