Short-Term Coaching: (1 day – 3 months)
Sometimes, individuals and organizations just need a new perspective, some fresh air, renewed vision and practical behaviors to apply daily. Salespeople and Sales Managers are famous for getting bored with the “same old same old” but they also get tired of “the latest fad” that is supposed to solve all of their problems. There is no magic dust! Wrestling with the right questions is often more important than how long you sign up for Coaching.
One example from years ago was a client who, in the course of three days, tackled “9 Questions to Uncover Your Desired Future” and then moved his family from Washington State to Georgia to launch an amazing new career. He and Brent only had 2-3 brief interactions. The questions did what they were designed to do. (Want those 9 questions for FREE?)
Another example is a Realtor who sat down with me (and a cup of coffee) in the middle of the ‘07/’08 recession to share with me how tough things were and how hard sales were and how he was thinking he should go back into campus ministry. After listening to him for about 30 minutes, I asked him two questions: “Did you say you believed God called you to this work as a means to serve people? Who told you it was going to be easy?”
Coaching does not have to be a long-term commitment. Just make sure the questions you wrestle with are powerful enough to get under your skin and cause you to take action.
