A business coach is a professional trained coach with a background in small business issues who oversees assistants and guides you-the small business owner in developing, starting and growing your small business. The business Coach helps you clarify your business goals and objects and help you develop the skills and acquire the resources need to operation a successful enterprise.

No one “needs” a coach (except Eric Schmidt, the CEO of Google said “Everyone needs a coach”). Regardless, the ROI of reaching your goal with a coach is 700%. If you are stuck or really ready to make a big change, use a coach. If it’s not us find someone that you trust and that trusts you-and ask about their experience. It’s one of the few professions that’s not highly regulated so do your homework. It’s a relationship. It’s intense. It’s worth it.

Business owners, lawyers, moms, writers. Anyone who wants to do something BIG but doesn’t know where to start. Let’s see what’s possible if we work together.

Yes and No. Anyone can call himself a coach. Regardless of whether we work together, we encourage everyone to learn about their coach’s training and background. Coaches who are ICF (International Coaching Federation) certified have undergone specific training and testing and adhere to the ICF standards and code of ethics.

A coach generally works 1:1 (although group coaching and team coaching can be an option) and is there to maximize and optimize a client's inherent goals and talents. A coach may have an expertise but should not push an agenda.  A consultant has a technical expertise in a particular area and advises on the specific agendas, often working with multiple people in a company.
