10 Ways That Coaching Can Help Any Business Owner Succeed
1. Undivided Attention – A coach listens to you with an unbiased view. A coach wants nothing more than your success whatever that might mean for you or however that might look. A coach has no *hidden agenda* and no self-interest other than you achieving your goals.
2. Live Your Dreams – A coach doesn’t just help you to clarify your dreams; a coach helps you to bring them to life! A coach stays by your side as you work to make your dream a reality. A coach brings visions to life!
3. Clarity and Self-Empowerment – The clearer you are about your wants, the more effective you’ll be. A coach provides clarity by being both a sounding board and a mirror to you. A coach helps you put what would otherwise be left unsaid were it not for the coaching. Coaching provides clarity and is the conduit for self-expression and empowerment!
4. Accountability – Many of us are challenged by our goals and frustrated with how to accomplish them. Having regular appointments with a coach helps you to fulfill your commitments. A coach provides follow-through and is someone to share your experience with.
5. Focus – A coach helps to keep you on track. A coach helps to keep you focused on your goals, actions, and outcomes by holding your vision for you for the times when it falters.
6. Unconditional Support – Carl Rogers, a Gestalt psychologist, defined unconditional positive regard as being “an outgoing positive feeling without reservations, without evaluations. ” A coach’s support is not conditional upon the client being a certain way or achieving a particular goal. A coach only wants the person to realize their goals in the most effortless, productive, and satisfying way possible. A coach creates a space of listening, compassion, and unconditional support. These qualities help to create a context of acceptance and possibility qualities that enable us to bring forth our vision.
7. Listening – Coaches are trained listeners. A coach listens to what’s being said, how you say it, the messages and feelings beneath the words, and what you’re NOT saying. A coach mirrors all this back to you. This is a rich territory, full of self-discovery and “a-ha’s! “
8. Alignment – Being driven and goal-oriented is only meaningful if your goals align with who you are and what’s most important to you. A coach knows this and coaches from this concept: When alignment exists, fulfillment AND results occur!
9. Powerful Questions Generate New Possibilities – A coach asks questions that open up new perspectives and possibilities. Sometimes we focus too much on the details, not the larger context: both are important! Great questions can shift paradigms and create new opportunities for action. Questions are potent catalysts for shifting perspectives and behavior. Coaching works!
10. Curiosity, Wonder, and Empowerment – Coaches help to shift perspectives, approaches, and attitudes. Coaches expand perspectives by assisting the person in seeing alternative ways to approach a situation. Coaches open your mind to new areas of development, generating a sense of curiosity, wonder, and empowerment.
