The Business Woman’s Coach

Women business owners must constantly strive for new levels of success, yet one of the most difficult actions for an entrepreneur is to constantly reinvent themselves at the same time as they are working on their everyday business. The old adage is:  Do you work in the business or on the business! The leadership qualities we needed to start our business must change and evolve as the business does.  After three to four years in business the typical business owner struggles to focus on what is important now.  Perhaps you have just returned to the business world after having a baby and discovered that everything is different. You wonder why what you used to do doesn’t seem to work anymore.  You need clear vision, a focus on goals, confidence that you have employed the right people, support from your husband and girlfriends, work/life balance, leadership, passion that what you are doing is important in the world and last but not least, to be having fun.

I am just like you – a woman and a business owner…

I have started three companies successfully.  In fact, my first company is now celebrating its 34th year and is still owned and operated within my family. I know the highs and lows of running your own show. Most times it feels like you are all alone and that can really play on your mind. Still, I wouldn’t live any other way – rewards, celebrations, chronic worry aside.

I have been an Entrepreneur and Small Business Owner for 34 years. I know the ins and outs of beginning a new business, financing, marketing, sales, management and administration. I know what success looks and feels like and I know about the hard times. I help my clients focus on the right things, hold them accountable for the goals they set for themselves and help them remember to celebrate their achievements.

Each coaching session is specifically designed to meet your needs and goals.  Together we will share commitment and become a powerful team.

I will help you:

  • make sense of the chaos
  • get focused on what needs to be done immediately
  • attain work/life balance
  • define your goals, identify responsibilities and create action steps
  • align your goals with your vision for your business
  • develop time management skills
  • build a competitive & sustainable company that you are proud to call your own
  • champion you to be the best you can be!

Here’s what we will do:

  • We start with awareness – what are you doing well and what are you doing unconsciously to sabotage your business growth
  • We figure out what your goals are
  • Then establish your priorities
  • We focus and drill down into what is important now by biting off one chunk at a time rather than trying to do it all at once (better known as we take away the frenzy)
  • We complete a Personal Leadership Development Plan – by defining your leadership talents and skills we can teach you how to better lead with them (TLC Leadership 360 and Gallup’s Strengths-finder)
  • We examine your blind spots and look for their underlying causes – then we do something about them!
  • We’ll explore new ideas
  • We`ll challenge your personal boundaries – I like to call it edge walking – being an entrepreneur is not for wimps
  • We set up action plans and have measurements along the way so you can see how you are doing
  • We hold you accountable – we believe that when you tell us it is going to happen it will – if it doesn’t you had better have a good reason
  • You will learn how to recognize and celebrate your accomplishments
  • You will build your confidence and competence so you will be the recognized leader in your industry
