When I look at what people love about the field of business coaching it is the fact they can get training quickly and have a new career by studying at home in no time. Finally people have an opportunity to have a business of their own. They get all the tools to increase their success to build clients and client releationships with ease. I also think that business coaching is fascinating because we as coaches get trained and learn essential life and business skills we were never taught in school!
When people learn coaching skills they have better relationships and more success. They get to learn the skills quickly and get a coaching diploma while learning knowledge essential for life and work.
Let's face it... too many people are miserable in their JOBs! Too many people want to have a side business from home but don't know what business to select! Too many people are dreaming of being entrepreneurs and are afraid to try it. We have more parents wanting to be at home more and not knowing how to do this. Let's rock and roll those people and get them to move into taking some real ACTION!
My Goal Is YOUR Success!

Business Coaching Sector on an Upturn Again!
The downturn in our economic condition in the US is opening up more coaching work as corporations are downsizing and individuals are hiring career coaches to move foward. Also, as corporations downsize this causes much chaos within the organization and so those corporations are hiring coaches to help people deal with the changes the downturn in bringing and their fears about their employment.
Just in the past 7 weeks I have personally been contacted by 5 companies and 11 individuals.
Coaching is unique in that when business is great, corporations hire coaches and individuals hire coaches to change careers, start their own businessess, etc. When the economy is down, individuals hire coaches to find new careers and companies hire coaches to help them retain key talent while downsizing others.
I am glad I am in a stable industry and self-employed!

Executive Coach Fired Up on Speed!
Yep, I feeeeeeeeeeeel like I am fired up on speed! I have a client from a large corporation who set 16 goals to achieve in 90 days and we had to create speedy results for him to keep his position. We cranked out sessions, shared emails and faxes and 63 days later he met every goal! He jazzed me and fired me up.
What an awesome executive to have the honor of coaching! We are now working on really lofty goals (in a slower time frame) and we are amped up! I am so turned on when I coach executives who really are serious about business goals, being successful and creating profits!
I am craving another executive to coach who has me at full coaching speed. Don't forget I am a race car driver and the feeeeeeeeeeeeeling of speed is what I need!
Ok, I am in the car waiting to drive!

Free Coaching Tip: Hearing Without Reacting
Wanted: People serious about coaching business leaders and managers to create more profit and more success! This tip is for them and as I was sharing this with my business clients I decided to share it publically as well.
Hearing without reacting is one of the key skills a business leader, manager, internal coach, HR director and anyone in business, needs to master.
Hearing without reacting means you listen with no judgment.
I know I hit this last blog and yet it is still up for me today as I find myself working with small business and large corporations on this same topic.
If you want to be a person who hears neutrally, you must set aside your agenda, feeeeeeeeeeelings, ideas, thoughts, right and wrongs and listen with compassion and for people's gifts.
You will find people are brilliant and are unique diamonds if you allow their gems to be discovered.

Hearing Without Reacting?
I was doing a live coach training last week and as I was teaching hearing without reacting I observed people reacting as I was sharing this information with them. Hearing without reacting is one of the most valuable skills a coach learns. As coaches we hear without reacting which means we don't judge anything a client says to us - not at all. We don't wear the judgment robes and we don't decide if the client is right or wrong, at fault, or not at fault, or good or bad.
We accept the client as they are and what they say as what is for them.
When thinking about life coaching or business coaching understand that we as coaches do not fix people or groups of people. Our role is to hear neutrally where the coaching client is and where the coaching client wants to be and then to co-create ways to assist them to get to where they want to be in their life and/or work.
New life and business coaches share with me that letting go of reaction and judgment is tough. I agree. As humans we have been hard-wired and conditioned to believe our thoughts are "right". Giving up our attachment to being right takes practice.
If you are considering becoming a life coach or business coach or if you are a personal or professional coach now, I encourage you to quiet your own thoughts and your own mind. (We have a great excercise we teach our students at www.CoachInstitute.com for this!).
As you listen, focus only on your coaching client and tune out everything else. Fully accept that the clients values and goals will be different than yours.
If you do any personal or business coaching or have thought about training to become a life or business coach, the skill of hearing without reacting is key.
I encourage people to use this skill with family and friends as a side benefit, too.
Deeply tune in, hear without reaction and you'll be ready for more coaching skills and tips!

Profiting in Business: Business and Executive Coaching for Your Organization?
Coaching is happening in organizations around the world. Organizations that are small as well as organizations that are Fortune 100 companies all benefit from corporate coaching. When a business has an executive coach for their leaders, their leaders shift from managing and they start coaching which yields better outcomes. The business has greater profits as employees become more productive when coached.
When the organization embraces corporate coaching the employees learn coaching skills as well as the leaders and the entire team collaborates towards corporate goals.
Corporate coaching is necessary to achieve the results companies want and executive coaching paired with corporate coaching has shown highly effective outcomes and long term outcomes for organizations.
The principles of a program like this are what I shared in my bestseller Stop Managing, Start Coaching. The program has been used with over 100 small to large businesses and has rave reviews.
My goal is to co-create better outcomes for people and companies around the world.
Work can be joy-filled and when employees feeeeeeeeeeeeeeel good, they produce results and are happy to do so!

The CEO 13 X Process
In my professional capacity, I have owned my own businesses, held executive roles in corporations, and for the last five years, seen that a new level of coaching needed to evolve - one that no business coach or business consultant was using, no coach training school was teaching, and that was unique and special for CEO’s.
Today’s CEO can no longer be satisfied with just being a figure-head and needs to be more proactive and is often working with a team of directors or senior managers who were not necessarily of his choosing. Today’s CEO is held more accountable than ever before, and that the CEO position is more tenuous than it has ever been in the past is evident by the increasingly high turnover of CEO’s in large companies. A CEO’s success depends on the cooperation and ability of his team of Managers. The CEO needs to know how to get the best out of his management team, how to motivate them, and how to lead them. He needs their respect and desire to follow his lead.
I understand what it is like to be a CEO, and my clients, who are CEO’s, come to me because I offer them a process that uses a breakthrough technique. The technique I have created transforms how CEO’s manage and how their managers manage, which ultimately creates more profitability for the company. This is not ordinary coaching or management training, but a focused process specifically designed for the CEO position.
The CEO 13 X Process is the strategy you need to work with the psychology of managers and motivating them. It is not a coaching or management model, as those models are for the average person. CEO’s need a different process. To lead a company successfully, CEO’s need their management team to buy into THEM before they will buy into the CEO’s ideas. You are not a leader if nobody will follow you, or does so half-heartedly or begrudgingly.
I believe typical executive coaches and coaching programs for corporations are great for what they do. However, they don’t do enough and they aren’t useful to CEO’s. CEO 13 X goes above and beyond and is the only comprehensive process for the 13 behavioral patterns that have to change and incorporates the replacement strategies to implement to make a company function at a higher level. Every strategy and process needed, that has never before been taught, trained or shared, is part of the CEO 13 X Process.
Why CEO 13 X?
Corporations worldwide acknowledge the benefits of training ground-level workers, supervisors and managers, but to date, the CEO has been overlooked. That a system is needed for CEO’s is self-evident from my own professional experience with my clients.
It is my belief that management training, coaching, and most programs, books and seminars, don’t understand the CEO and often are full of theory that can’t be applied.
When I identified the 13 behavioral patterns through my work with clients, I realized no one else had documented this or was working with CEO’s to implement the strategies necessary. I decided to remove this from the “too hard basket” and create CEO 13 X, which may be difficult to grasp in a special report, and yet has clearly demonstrated it is easy to apply and get results.
These tools are the best of the best and have stood the test of time – I have used them for over 2 decades and also have clients using them with great success. CEO 13 X has been field-tested and is a proven transformational process. Technology may change, job roles may change… but people remain people, and people are the tools with which CEO’s work.
The CEO 13 X Process
There are 13 components to the CEO 13 X process. Each one is complex and depends on the next process as they work in harmony.
The components are:
1. Anti-management thinking
2. Building an emotional/behavioral framework
3. Creating healthy work rituals
4. Self-scripting
5. Self-coaching
6. Moving through irrational beliefs
7. Building trust
8. Increasing vulnerability
9. Accepting personal responsibility
10. Powerful problem solving
11. Using power and control with grace
12. The ECM communication model
13. Powerful languaging
The impact of these 13 strategies working in synergy creates more productivity and more dynamic and successful companies. Fully understanding the 13 processes takes time and are learned together as a chain. When you learn one process fully, then you integrate it with the others to develop the transformation in your company. This is not taught anywhere else and is not designed for a senior manager. The process is specific to CEOs and has impacted them to better motivate managers.
The system is based on helping CEO’s shift their thinking quickly away from management thinking and to the how-to's of creating in managers a solid emotional and behavioral framework. Once the CEO is no longer following traditional management methods, and has learned the system for evolving managers emotionally and behaviorally, then we develop in the managers the healthy work rituals they need.
As we move into the areas of self-scripting and self-coaching, the CEO typically sees managers’ motivation shift dramatically. The process works fast to move managers away from irrational beliefs and to create more trust and the ability to increase vulnerability, which leads managers to feel better about themselves and achieve more.
The CEO’s can now work on the manager’s outer presence in how to accept greater personal responsibility. In fact, problem solving becomes effortless for the managers and they also balance their power and control.
The final components of the CEO 13 X model comes from the ECM (Extraordinary Coaching Methods) communication model I created, which has been well documented in my bestseller, “Stop Managing, Start Coaching!”.
The ECM communication model is the model I used to create motivation leading to increased productivity and profitability in the companies I worked with and is the proprietary model I have been teaching to CEO’s for years. Its success is well documented. Within the CEO 13 X, it fits like a glove and establishes how to use powerful language to create a company and managers working at a new level.
