Having a Business Coach should be a rewarding experience. Trust and belief are two very strong emotions that you should get out of your coaching experience. Other benefits you will experience can include: Development - A coach’s role is to share their skills and experience. This helps you grow and develop personally and improve your business. A good coach in any field will want their 'charges' to perform better than they ever have. Relationship - Coaching, in any area, is about communication. Through strong and open communication, a good business coach will develop a solid working Relationship. In a Relationship you are happy to ask for help, and willingly accept help when it is offered. Direction - A Coach helps you set a direction. As it is likely they have ‘been there before’, they can assist you to identify and then select a path that will get you to your goal sooner. Leveraging your Coach’s experience is a smart thing for you to do. Accountability - To have someone to hold you ‘accountable’ to your dreams and aspirations gets you there sooner. To do it on your own is possible and the possibility of success expands exponentially with a Coach. Constructive feedback ... critiquing, not criticism ... is the hallmark of accountability. Results - If you want to WIN, your chances are greatly enhanced when you have a trusted Adviser/Coach on the journey with you. Your Coach is there to keep you focused on the results you desire.
