Are You Starting a New Company? Adding a New Product Line or Revenue Stream?
CFO Solutions of Chicago are members of the International Association of Coaching and The Strategic Learning Alliance. Our weekly one-on-one business coaching sessions are geared to assist you in making changes to your business that will maximize your talents and resources.
How Does Coaching Differ From Consulting?
In short, if you want something technical done for you, such as financial analysis, hire a consultant. If you want to expand your business knowledge in areas that you may never have considered need your attention, hire a coach.
Business Coaching differs from Business Consulting in that the evaluation, design and implementation of solutions come from you. You work within your own system. The coach facilitates that dynamic process by challenging your assumptions, and consistently checks whether your objectives are being met in accordance with the timeline you set forth for yourself.
It all begins with a highly effective Business Strategy, considering every facet of your organization that will serve as your road map to success.
The Initial Business Plan Will Include:
- Vision Statement — "Why" the company exists — clearly defined for employees and customers
- Mission Statement — A description of "what" the company produces or sells for the benefit of investors and upper level management
- Action Steps — "How" the company intends on succeeding
The success of a company is not only defined by the quality of its product or service. More than often, the owner of a profitable business has also put considerable time and effort into mastering "soft skills", especially in areas such as time management and team building. These are the missing tools that prevent many leaders and businesses from getting to the next level.
If you have a great product or service but are not reaching your goals, you may want to consider working with an experienced Business Coach. Our commitment, as your Coach, will be to hold you accountable to your business and to your best effort.
A Coach Will Work One-on-One With You and Drive You To:
- Examine your role within your business.
- Set SMART goals for you and your employees.
- Create a system to motivate, evaluate and reward performance.
- Prioritize your time and address urgent needs.
- Leverage technology and financial data to guide intelligent strategic planning.
- Build successful sales teams around a corporate culture that accurately reflects your brand.
