Tea with the QueenWhat is a business coach exactly?There are many misconceptions about business coaches. What do they do exactly, what qualifications do they have, and how do you use one to get the best out of yourself and your business? Emma McQueen gets those questions all the time, and today she sets out to answer them. She emphasizes her results-oriented style and the importance of alignment between coach and client.
