A Business Coach to Help You Meet Your Professional Goals
“The Knowledge Economy as we know it is being eclipsed by something new—call it the Creativity Economy.” Business Week, 2005. “Get Creative! How to Build Innovative Companies.”
My Mission:
Make business coaching more accessible to everyone, and use it to unleash personal, professional and organizational potential.
Use business coaching to promote a culture of continuous learning among my clients.
Equip each person, team and organization with the skills needed for business success.
My Approach: Discover. Catalyze. Experiment. Act.
Discover
“The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes.” Marcel Proust, Author.
One benefit of a business coach is learning to see from another perspective, thinking bigger, expanding your scope of action—and identifying new options.
The ability to see the “world upside down” is central to the philosophies of writers, innovators, artists, entrepreneurs and business people. I try to rework perspectives and build on the resulting knowledge.
Catalyze
Catalyzing means triggering a reaction through the presence of a substance (the catalyst). The Discoveries you make through coaching are catalysts for “chemical” reactions that create links between your experience, knowledge, discoveries and goals to make your project a success.
Experiment
“In wisdom gathered over time I have found that every experience is a form of exploration.” Ansel Adams, Photographer
Out of the catalyst, emerge experiments for verifying your assumptions, testing the market, conducting a pilot run and gathering the information you need to generate a solid plan of action.
Act
The success of business coaching can be measured by results achieved with respect to goals (SMART) set, changes produced, energy levels, new awareness, changes in behaviour and habits and even by how others respond to us.
A business coach fulfills her purpose by guiding a client through the predictable phases of adjustment, feedback, discouragement and joy that characterize implementation of an action plan and realization of a project.
My Values
- Commitment
- Presence
- Authenticity
- Cooperation
My Credo
In taking responsibility for improving our own quality of life at work, we each contribute to the workplace and to the living environment. Personal and corporate coaching produces a continuous culture of learning.
