This is a question that we are asked quite frequently. It’s also a topic I see discussed in some of the many online forums I’m a member of.

The fact is, if you are in, or looking to be in business, the chances are that you will most likely need both!

Many small businesses and entrepreneurs need the practical advice, analysis, problem solving and brainstorming from a Business Consultant, but in search of long term solutions and success, will also need work on their own personal development.

Many of the people we work with have had professional careers, worked their way up the ladder and become experts at what they do. Alternatively we also see many people who have a great talent and are awesome at what they do, so decide to go and set up in business.

It doesn’t really matter what your route to business is. Being IN business is very different to having a job. There will be skills and tasks that you have not come across. There will be personal issues that hold you back. There will be times that you won’t know what you don’t know!

Having access to business expertise along with someone who can help you become your “best you” is surely the most effective solution for business and personal success.

A Business Coach will focus on your personal development, helping you create your own success through areas such as:

  • Mindset
  • Self Sabotaging Behaviours & Habits (procrastination, distraction etc)
  • Clarity
  • Decision-Making
  • Taking Action

A Business Coach will empower you to be the best version of you, you can be. What you learn here will also have added benefits in your life outside of work. Yes! There is one!

Being in business is challenging. There will always be problems. But there is very little that you cannot develop techniques to help you with. You don’t need to feel overwhelmed, overworked, full of self doubt and in-decision. Working with a Business Coach will help you develop alongside your business, so you are personally equipped with the skills to manage and grow your business effectively.
