A Coach in athletics is like a Coach in business…It doesn’t matter if you are a leader in athletics, academics, the arts, or business. Great leadership is universal. It has many of the same basic elements. The specifics are different, at times very different, but the foundation that creates a strong leader has many similarities. Here are just a few examples of likeness between an athletic coach and a business coach:

work together

Let’s work together towards positive change!

  1. Both are results-oriented.
  2. Many goals are set to move forward effectively and efficiently.
  3. Both inspire their teams to motivate themselves to perform
  4. Both ask the team members to recognize each other’s individual importance to the team effort.

“Coaching and it’s uniquely personal touch gets more out of people both in job performance & in job satisfaction.”

What does it mean to be a “Business Coach”?
  • A Business Coach instills a sense of belief in each team player by empowering, encouraging, and motivating.
  • A Business Coach helps each person identify their potential and helps them find ways to connect with it.
  • A Business Coach encourages positive thinking and encourages open lines of communication within the team.
  • A Business Coach does not let set backs cripple the team but instead uses every opportunity as a “coachable” moment.
  • A Business Coach leads by example!

Why would I want to learn how to be a successful Business Coach?
Why not? Successful coaching creates a sense of personal accountability where each person understands their responsibility to the team, has respect for themselves and others, and offers their personal best. It builds enthusiasm in which each person is empowered to use their unique skills, leading to stronger self confidence, and more individual as well as team success. It also opens up our team members’ awareness of team goals, the importance of working together, and how we can learn form others. When our team leaders understand the elements of successful Business Coaching our teams will find more enjoyment from work, easier and more open lines of communication, a stronger connection to the team, and overall better productivity.

How can a Life Coach support Business Coaches?
It has been proven that up to 70% more information will be utilized if training is followed up with some form of support. Therefore, considering a support system during the initial few months after training is a great tool to optimize retention of the new skills. Once your team leaders have been trained with the skills necessary to become great “Business Coaches” you can either choose:

  1. Life Coaching which will support each team leader in a way that is confidential and personal for each individual allowing them to discover what works best and will lead them to the highest level of success. (Creating the highest level of retention and success. About 90%)
  2. To move onto consulting with STAR Strategies where we will observe and give feedback to team leaders during the implementation phase. (Creating a greater understanding of how to implement new skills but is not personalized to be successful with the unique skills of each individual business coach.)
  3. To progress on your own. (Leading to the lowest level of retention. About 20%)

How is a Life Coach different from a Business Coach?
A life coach is trained as a business coach however the reverse is not necessarily true. Business coaching is learned in a few hours with motivational and team building skills that are useful to help our business teams be more successful. Even though you will learn a few of the fundamental skills that a Life Coach uses during the business seminar, the foundations of the professions are different. As a life coach we go through extensive training on how to ask effective questions that align each individual with their core values and connect them to their “gut feelings” in order to move the client forward in a transforming and affirming way. The client sets the agenda and is not being told where to go. The client leads and the coach supports them and makes them accountable. A Life Coach is there to focus the client on his/her process of creating change, taking action, and moving forward towards their desired dreams, goals, and aspirations. A Life Coach has no agenda and goes where the client wants to go, acknowledging and supporting every step along the journey. A Business Coach is taught to help lead their teams to a desired outcome of the company. To meet predetermined goals set by someone else. Although they have similar elements they are very different. Angie is trained to do both!
