In today's competitive business world, one needs to be at the "top of their game." The pressure of business can be overwhelming. Where can business owners, senior executives, executive directors of not-for-profits and others turn to handle the pressure and be powerful performers? My recommendation is to hire a coach!
And your question back to me is why hire a coach? In researching for this newsletter, I found Bill Cole, Founder & CEO of Procoach Systems in San Jose, CA. Bill is a leading authority on peak performers, mental toughness and coaching. You can learn more about Bill by visiting his website at www.MentalGameCoach.com and you can access an extensive article archive there as well.
In one article entitled "Why Hire A Coach? Ten Terrific Ways To A More Powerful Life," Bill lists 10 ways a coach can help get you to the next level. I believe his list is absolutely "right on" based upon my coaching experience. The ten ways are listed as:
1. A coach can be a confidant.
2. A coach can help you see your blind spots.
3. A coach can provide objective feedback.
4. A coach provides another set of eyes.
5. A coach can keep you accountable.
6. A coach can be a sounding board.
7. A coach can be another source of creative ideas.
8. A coach can help you create your vision.
9. A coach can help celebrate your successes and be a source of strength when you fail.
10. A coach can help you process life.
