Business Leaders Discover the Value of Being Coachable!

One thing professional athletes and business leaders have in common is both of you need to find the right strategic coach to maximize your results. A growing number of business leaders such as business owners, entrepreneurs, speakers, coaches, consultants, and corporate executives find coaching to be the best way to breakthrough their invisible barriers.

Are YOU coachable? When you think of all the great athletes in basketball, football, golf, and tennis, how many of them do you think would have been successful without a premier coach?

Tiger Woods is the best golf player in the history of the game. Why does he still work with a coach?

Coaches provide feedback, support, a different perspective and accountability to lift your game to a higher level.

Most people who are truly committed to their objectives, goals, success, and their quality of life work with a coach. Great leaders surround themselves with consultants who provide expert support and who are there as a “sounding board” for them to sharpen their ideas, polish their goals and create balance to enhance their decisions.

So, why don’t we seek expert advice when it comes to living our own personal lives and running our businesses? When it comes to our own lives we struggle because we think we should be able to do it alone based on our willpower. We sometimes end up overburdening our own friends and family because we expect a level of support that they are unable to give us.

Tiger knows the value of expert advice in golf and business, but he lacks maturity in life in terms of spiritual knowledge. This makes him vulnerable to all the temptations in the world which affect all of us, especially when we’ve achieved great financial success. I suspect this will be the next area in Tiger’s life where he’ll seek out balance through an expert who understands issues of life

I mentioned above that coaches have coaches. I am a coach, but I also have different coaches I work with on a regular basis because it’s only human to have invisible barriers. I’ve discovered coaching is the best way for me to overcome my blind spots.

 

Invisible Barriers

• Your weaknesses
• Your strengths
• Your blind spots

The tricky thing for you to understand is that most people who desire to be business leaders already know what they want and have powerful strategies they need to follow. The challenge is they don’t know how to get it done! It’s not enough for you to know what to do. You need help in breaking through your invisible barriers to execute on what you already know you need to do. You need to be coachable! I give you the “secret sauce” below.

The most successful people in business are those who understand who they are; those who are honest with themselves about their strengths and weaknesses.  These successful business people develop strategies to perform at a high level no matter the environment they operate in.

Improving on your behavior patterns is critical to getting what you want in business and life. Much of our behavior is inherent and our upbringing shapes how we respond in various situations.

Do you realize that many people don’t even recognize all of their strengths? Yes that’s right; they don’t use the power they already have at their becking call! Compound this with the fact that people don’t want to admit to their weaknesses even when they’re aware of what they are.

 

It’s critical for you to know:

• How you react to problems and challenges.
• How you persuade others to your point of view.
• How you act in response to changes in your environment.
• How you react to rules and procedures set by others.

“All people exhibit all four of these behavioral factors in varying degrees of intensity.”

–W.M. Marston

Assessment Tools

I can help you with assessment tools to find out where you stand. My assessments will give you the information you need to clarify your invisible barriers. The point I’m driving home here is that logical intelligence is just one factor that determines your success. Emotional and behavioral intelligence are just as important for you to grapple with to make a measureable difference in your life.

Coaching can help you to:

• Improve relationships with your family, employees, and peers
• Enable you to be a better team player
• Double your sales
• Increase your effectiveness in influencing others
• Focus on what really matters to you in business and life
• Stop doing the things which have nothing to do with your business and life goals
• Leverage your strengths
• Mitigate your weaknesses

What would Michael Jordan have accomplished in his life if he had not been coachable? I would venture to guess much less than the intensity at which he played for years in the NBA. Michael was so bad at basketball in high school, he didn’t even make the team.

“I’ve missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I’ve lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I’ve been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I’ve failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.”

- Michael Jordan

How do you view failure in your life and business? Because Michael was coachable, he accepted advice from his coaches who knew what it took to be a great basketball player. I train constantly to become a premier coach for my clients. Jordan’s coaches helped him to capitalize on his strengths and mitigate his weaknesses. Michael became a premier basketball player in the NBA and his coaches are revered as among the best coaches who have ever coached the game.

Many business owners I interact with in my business, at networking meetings, and on conference calls, don’t appear to me to be coachable. But, their progress is slow. They’re dissatisfied with their progress and change their focus frequently because they can’t figure out why they’re not breaking through their barriers.

It’s not about your intellect!

It’s not about your will power alone!

It’s not about me dumping a lot of information on you.

I’m sure your already drowning in too much information.
