Who Benefits from Small Business Ownership Coaching
Small business ownership coaching is designed for entrepreneurs, franchisees, and other small business owners and operators looking to improve their own leadership skills as they improve their business.
Most importantly, coaching is for those executives who are open to positive change and ready to embrace their authentic, inner leaders.
CASE STUDY: A Client’s Transformation
Some small business owners, brilliant and talented as they may be, find it difficult to embrace their inner leaders. One particular client was facing just this challenge when she came to see Dr. Tibbs for the first time. A business owner with a dedicated team, this client didn’t believe she had the essential leadership skills to guide her team to success. She was struggling in the day-to-day operations and wasn’t making the kind of money she could have been. She doubted her skills, wasn’t succeeding and was in debt.
Via strategic coaching, Dr. Tibbs helped this business owner change her mindset and realize her potential. For many women leaders, including this client, mindset and approach to their business is a huge issue. She had to renew her commitment to her enterprise and to her own success. The transformation wasn’t immediate, but after coaching and committed effort, she met her targets, got out of debt and started making the money she needed to live the life she wanted and build the retirement goals she had for her family.
In this case and in others, Dr. Tibbs guided the client to feel empowered. This is not a hobby, it’s an endeavor. Many business owners are good at their jobs, but poor leadership and team management can negatively impact a business. As successful leaders know, when you have a strategic team, profits go up and businesses improve. No matter what, entrepreneurs shouldn’t minimize their positions – whether they manage a team or are solopreneurs, small business owners are leaders.
What Challenges Are Addressed
Just as each small business is different, the challenge faced by each owner and operator is unique to their operation. However, learning to lead authentically, to communicate with authority and insight, and approach business issues with resilience and a problem-solving mind, can benefit any entrepreneur.
One of the principle challenges faced by many small business owners is effective team management. Your employees are the face of your company, so selecting and keeping high-level talent is of the utmost importance. Are your people skills, leadership and management style as effective as they can be? Tools learned in small business ownership coaching can make all the difference.
A second principle challenge is manager development. While small business owners are handling the financial health, marketing strategies, and growth and development planning of their business, they need keen managers who they can trust to take on day-to-day operations effectively and in keeping with the business’ mission. Recruiting and training these managers takes not only exceptional human resources skills but a clear vision for your business to ensure the manager and enterprise are aligned.
Yet another challenge is maintaining a resilient approach when obstacles inevitably come. Instead of taking frustration out on employees, which only leads to resentment on both sides, entrepreneurs who handle challenges with a resilient attitude can bounce back more quickly, resolve issues more effectively and move forward with a solution-oriented energy.
Small business ownership coaching can help entrepreneurs who want to become the leader their business needs to move to the next level of success.
What Clients Can Expect
In addition to a professional and confidential environment, clients can expect to maintain consistent and honest communication with Dr. Tibbs throughout the length of their coaching relationship. Coaching may also include:
