Laure Cohen Bio
Writing about what we have done is good. Writing about what remains to be done is even better.
But everything starts with selecting your business coach—a critical step in achieving success. You need to make an informed decision, so here is a description of Laure Cohen’s background and experience…
Laure Cohen has been a business coach since 2002. She is an ACC coach certified by the International Coach Federation and founder of SmartCoaching, who is constantly seeking to grow her business through innovative services driven by customer needs.
Entrepreneurship is very important for Laure. She has coached numerous professionals, executives, directors, managers and entrepreneurs whom she encourages to act as if they were running their own business or their own brand. Each of us is our own brand and whether we are working in a corporate, small business or entrepreneurial environment, we must sell our mark to make our mark.
