Coaching As A Business

Part 2 - You: A Major Component Of Your Business

by Ninive Badilescu

Whenever an individual or a business decides that success has been attained, progress stops.
--Thomas J. Watson Jr

 

We were saying in our last newsletter issue that the interaction between You, your Planning and Marketing does ensure a successful coaching practice.

Like with many other businesses your professional skills and knowledge and your business skills play a very significant role in the success of your coaching practice. Unlike with many other businesses your coaching practice will reflect and be built on your own personality. You are part of the services you offer. Through your interaction on a personal level with your clients you give the flavour and the shape to your practice.

Through the combination of your personality and your skills and knowledge the first aspect of your services to be affected will be the quality. Regardless of how well prepared, skilled and knowledgeable you are if your personality opposes or denies what you say to and advise your client the quality of the services provided will be affected negatively. However your personality can help you if you get stuck in term of skills or knowledge.

Lets take the example of a client asking you to coach him on a communication related matter. Now, you know all there is to know about powerful and efficient communication skills. You have a stack of materials that the client can have access to.

So you should be set for a great experience. No realy. Why? Because your personality is not conveying to your client the same things that your are telling him. You might be less excited about small breakthroughs and the clients do not receive the right feedback from you or misinterprets it as criticism. You might find it hard to relate to the issues raised by your client and your actions show lack of understanding. You are not as good a listener as you are an "advice giver", or you might just not "click" with your client. Your coaching does not work.
