habits . A great coach makes this education practical and applicable right away .
• Conductor – Coaches serve as a resource to coordinate and orchestrate the flow of information and best practices , making recommendations on what content should be reviewed and applied .
• Confidante – A coach is a sounding board for the CEO to bounce ideas off of , someone who asks the right questions to bring out the CEO ’ s best ideas .
Here is one example of how I fulfill these four roles as it relates to hiring :
An alarming 70 percent of the American workforce is disengaged . A highperformance culture is only possible with the right team in place . As a Co-architect , I perform a workplace analysis : re-viewing the current hiring process , determining key weaknesses , and creating a plan for improvement .
As a Teacher , I provide education and experience about the right tools and frame-works that make the hiring process run smoothly . As a Conductor , I orchestrate information about the best practices in human resources based on experiences from my own clients and from extensive research and learning . Finally , as a Confidante , I serve as a trusted advisor to CEOs , discussing sensitive and personal issues they may not want to share with anyone else .
CHOOSING A BUSINESS COACH When choosing a coach , look for these criteria :
• Content – Does the coach have the right tools , materials , and methodology for your company ?
• Credibility – Does the coach have the appropriate experience ? Has the coach done this with other clients or with others in your industry or market ? Are you willing to trust the coach ’ s guidance ?
• Cash – Can you see a clear return on investment ( ROI )? I work with my clients to achieve a three-tofive times increase in ROI after one year and a tenfold increase after two years .
• Chemistry – Your coach will be very involved in a number of important internal and external relationships with your company . Would you enjoy working with this person over the long term ?
• Commitment – Are you , the business owner or CEO , willing to make a long-term commitment to achieve the full results that business coaching offers ?
