WHAT IS A CORPORATE BUSINESS COACH?
In more practical terms, a corporate business coach is an entrepreneur or executive looking to spread their wisdom on growing a business. They have been in the corporate world for many years and know how to run a profitable business or transform an ineffective owner into someone who will handle all the day-to-day business tasks.
WHY DO CORPORATE BUSINESS OWNERS NEED A COACH?
Running a corporation will involve a lot of stress some people are unprepared to encounter. The pressure or the "hustle" of the corporate world could overwhelm some people to the point where they need a reset. Or the business could be doing better, and you need to learn how to take it out of a negative trajectory. Sometimes a business owner needs to have all the answers and needs outside help. Or they have been pushed to their breaking point. A business coach will help slow things down and bring things back into focus.
WHAT CAN CORPORATE BUSINESS COACHING DO FOR A BUSINESS?
A corporate business coach takes a struggling or misguided business and steers it back into focus. How they do this is by establishing a few things, including
● Attainable goals - The first step to being a successful business is understanding what you are trying to accomplish and making sure they are realistic. A business coach will ensure the goals you seek are something you are able to achieve and not some lofty goal your company will not reach.
● Fresh perspective - you may think you have it all figured out, but this is only sometimes the case. Sometimes it is good to have someone from the outside come in and demonstrate where you may fall short. It's not a criticism but a perspective you may have seen when you first started.
● Marketing ideas - Marketing will make or break a company. It is one of the deciding factors on if a business will thrive or fail. Marketing is a skill only some possess. With a business, a coach will help you set up a marketing campaign to set your business up for success rather than failure.
● Establish Balance - Some companies are trying to go too far in one direction and need to focus more resources on another trend which could provide more leverage. They not only help with trends, but they help create balance in the owner's life, they may not dig deep into your personal life, but they will also help you set up a lifestyle more conducive to productivity.
● Hold everyone accountable - If a business succeeds, it is a team effort; the same dynamic works if it fails. Everyone must understand they have a role to play and must be held accountable if they are not meeting the role’s needs.
WHAT MAKES A GOOD CORPORATE BUSINESS COACH?
Hiring a business coach is an important decision, as hiring the wrong coach could put the business in a worse position than it already is. When hiring a business coach, there are several traits you should keep in mind when deciding if they are a good fit. Those traits include:
● Expertise and knowledge in the field
● A commitment to getting the job done
● Leadership skills
● Good communication skills
● A network of other executives
In all, you want a coach who is a good leader who is willing to put in the work to get the job done. In addition, they need to know your business, communicate their objectives, and have other executives as additional resources because they may only sometimes have all the answers. If your business coach has these traits, they are well equipped to set you up for success.
WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT FROM A CORPORATE BUSINESS COACH?
When a business coach first approaches your business, they will need time to assess your business's health. Once they see how healthy the company is, they will look at you and your setup. Is your goal in order, is the business strategy you created something attainable at your current level? Do you represent someone who will lead the business, etc.? Once they have documented all of this and understand, they will begin taking a more hands-on approach with you and the company. They will help you with a new business plan, motivate you, and develop your leadership skills. First, they will help you understand what it takes to run a corporate business. Then they will hang around for a while to see how things work out, encourage you along the way, make changes if necessary, etc. By the end of it, they hope to establish not only a business heading in the right direction financially but a capable owner who could lead the business to its true potential.
