Donald Trump (the
real estate developer you’ve
probably seen on the Apprentice with a net worth of $2.4
billion) was asked for one piece of advice & guess
what he said?
“Get
a coach!”
Have
you ever noticed how athletes always thank their
coach after they win a gold medal?
We know that the top sports professionals benefit
from coaching to improve their performance. In the
same
way, coaching will improve your business performance,
quite
possibly by more than you can imagine.
‘The
impact of coaching on our management has been quite
amazing!’
- Ann Turrell, Management Development Manager, Portman
Building Society after coaching helped the management
development function to become profitable for the first
time.
What happens if you don’t
invest in coaching?
Well,
what happens if you don’t look after your
car? Let’s say you don’t top up the oil or
check the tyre pressure. It’s going to give you
lower mileage. And eventually it’s going to break
down. For the same reasons a successful manufacturing
company needs to maintain its key fixed assets such
as machinery.
Your business’s most valuable asset is your people (including yourself!).
A worried or unhappy worker is
an unproductive worker.
Are you investing appropriately to get the most of out
of your most important assets?
