Tailored for You
The Growth Coach® provides one-on-one, face-to-face coaching for clients who desire additional support, follow-up and attention. Most one-on-one clients like the privacy and frequency of these individualized and customized sessions. Business owners, franchisees, executives, and self-employed professionals may often feel overwhelmed, alone, fearful and out of control. Too often, they feel uncomfortable or too vulnerable seeking support from spouses, peers, co-workers or anyone else they know. However, they still need an outlet through which they can vent their frustrations and start to move past them. They need someone who can help them see the reality of a situation – an objective perspective – and help them determine their options and potential solutions. Our coaches serve as objective resource. They act as a sounding board, a confidant, and a mentor – and they help clients clarify their situation, set goals and go about achieving them.
One-on-one coaching is typically conducted in person and, as needed, can be followed up via phone or e-mail. However, all one-on-one coaching starts with a face-to-face meeting which is the beginning of a relationship-building process. The process is tailored to meet our clients’ individual needs and one-on-one coaching can take place once a month, twice a month, or, if you prefer, on a weekly basis. Our coaches offer hourly rates or fixed monthly retainers. Each session typically lasts 1 to 2 hours.
Coaching Relationship
A typical coaching relationship will begin with familiarizing our clients with the process and building a trusting relationship between client and coach. Our clients are taken through a process that will ask them to face the reality of their situation and set goals to improve themselves and their businesses/careers. Our clients will then be held accountable for the outcomes they seek. Among other topics, our coaches help our clients learn strategic focusing and priority management. Clients also learn important leadership skills and business planning and implementation strategies. This coaching relationship will ultimately help clients gain a wider perspective, achieve their goals, and have the business or career they’ve always wanted.
Testimonials
Michael is the supervisor everyone would want. He draws the solutions out of you in a manner which is constructive and quite helpful. I have appreciated my time with him and he has been an asset to our business.
Alcoholism Council, Executive Director, Tom Kelechi
The Growth Coach program has challenged our business to place ourselves “under a microscope” and answer tough questions. Michael has been an encouraging voice in the background to inspire us to proceed in that process. He not only takes a professional role with each of his clients, but a personal interest as well. We have found this experience to be valuable and highly recommend his service.
Higher Ground Camp, Julie Driskill
First of all we wanted to grow to utilize the existing available capacity, especially in the summer and fall, and have more consistency in our revenue stream. The result so far is that we are quite busy and productive, for the period June 1 through July 31 our revenues have increased approximately 77% over last year. This also happened during a period when we took a longer vacation than in the past year.
