Frequently Asked Questions

I have heard that 1 to 1 coaching is expensive?

it is an investment. There is no contract but there is an agreement which says that I commit to provide more value for the client than the client pays. If I don’t, then the client must sack me, the coach. If the client is not putting the effort in to achieve measurable results then I will sack the client. My reputation depends upon the results my clients get. Coaching is self financing when it is done correctly.

how will I know whether the time is right, the coach is right and my business is right?

Come and have a chat. It will cost you nothing. I guarantee that you will leave with more ideas and inspiration than you came with and be in a better position to make a decision. You will know whether you are ready for coaching or not ready yet.

Is there any sponsorship available?

I am on the North East Service Providers Register. Once you have decided to back yourself I will coach you on how to ask for their support.

What is the easiest way to refer someone to you?

Arrange a meeting for us or bring them along to any of my seminars. They are usually free and it is an easy way for a prospect to decide if I am worth talking to.

How long does a coaching engagement usually last?

For as long as it is working. Sometimes the engagement is for a fixed term but usually it lasts for as long as it is working. It is an investment and as long as you are getting back more than you are paying out, why would you even think of stopping? And remember coaching is about helping the coachee to perform at a higher level. It is not about creating a dependency. A key coaching question is “when will you be ready to operate without your coach?”

If you had to explain the role of the coach in one phrase what would it be?

A compassionate yet unreasonable friend. As your coach I will always be in your corner, I will always have your back, I will be on your side but you will find me unreasonable because I will not accept anything less than your best, I will encourage you and cajole and motivate you and I will not collude. I will hold you accountable and responsible to be your very best because I believe in you and your potential.

what if you don’t know anything about my business?

That’s great I don’t need to. You are the expert in your field. My expertise is in people, learning and the business of business.
