What do Serena Williams, Bill Gates, Leonardo
DiCaprio, and Oprah Winfrey all have in common?
Indeed, great success, and they all invested time and effort
to work with a Business Coach as they understood the
importance of that investment to achieve their desired results.

A great business coach can guide you too, pushing beyond
any self-perceived limiting beliefs to see things differently,
identify goals, and take action to produce better results and
make significant progress.
Many people don’t realize what a business coach
can do for them or their business. At ActionCOACH, we
uphold a process that draws out the wisdom from you, the
client. Our certified coaches have expertise in the process of
coaching, skilled in asking the right kinds of questions and
providing a helpful kind of support so you, the client, can
discover how to “BE” and determine what to “DO.” We also
share proven strategies, methodologies, and systems that
can be effectively implemented. An ActionCOACH will guide
you in building a roadmap for your success; we will help you
become a more effective influencer and leader (a necessity
to thrive through challenging times). In addition, we will help
create the kind of work environment that effectively retains
and recruits top talent (something we are all trying to figure
out these days).
A business coach should work alongside you.
Coaching is a confidential engagement focused on designing,
planning, aligning, and achieving your (the client’s) personal
goals and business goals. A coaching process includes a
continuous learning attitude that encourages candid and
respectful conversations between coach and client, including
a self-reflective approach to enhance creativity and embrace
change with a problem-solving focus for sustainable
solution(s). This type of investment is a GROWTH strategy for
leaders and companies who want to grow yet seem to have
underlying constraints, such as challenges with recruitment
and retention these days.
Elements of a Powerful Coaching
Partnership
A Winner’s Mindset | Awareness | Being COACHABLE
Become aware of the key behaviors that either help or
hinder progress and growth. We cannot change what we
are unaware of, so bringing to our conscious awareness our
current leadership shadow - how we show up and what we
can do differently - is essential.
others had failed because his ‘why’ was so powerful. Coaching
works best when aligned with what a person or organization
wants to work on and “why” it is significant.
An Attitude for Continuous Learning | DRIVEN | Always
looking to improve
Stay curious and be open to new ways of thinking. Improve
Daily and Learn from what works and what doesn’t – Learn from
mistakes. Take Action. Test and Measure. Create clear goals and
a written action plan to help provide a road map to achieve the
future vision. Coaching also provides a baseline for the current
state, pre-coaching, and indicates progress toward the desired
state, post-coaching.
Accountability | Ownership with an Appropriate PACE:
Coaching creates the environment, sets the tone for people
to take responsibility for their growth, and provides built-in
accountability. The coach will check in on the progress made
toward agreed-upon action items from the last coaching session.
This is the power of coaching in action.
