"It's clear that when vision and strategy are communicated so that people throughout a firm can grasp them, it creates a favorable context that often leads to the emergence of new and unsuspected strategies."
 
David K. Hurst

"The Search for Excellence was about people, customers, and action. Twenty years later, it's about ideas, liberation, and speed. We've ratcheted everything up several notches. It's not just people anymore. It's people paying attention to people, it's free agents, it's the power of good ideas that passionate, motivated fully engaged people can generate."

Group coaching combines the essence of coaching- a highly motivated partnership for the purpose of learning how to best create your own success- with the additional elements of the Brilliance and Synergy of the Collective Mind: leveraging the intelligence and real world experience of others.

There are three types of groups that can benefit from this model:

The first is for employees within the same company who together create a team in one location.
The second is for employees within the same company that are geographically dispersed. 
The third group is comprised of individuals within a similar or related profession, but the individuals are not in competition with each other based on geography. ie: Loan officers, Financial planners, Sales professionals, travel agents, real estate professionals, etc.

How it works: The group meets via tele-bridge (a telephone conferencing system) for one hour twice a month. Additionally, participants schedule a personal laser coaching session once per month with the coach to discuss and leverage their individual challenges and opportunities. A group consists of between 4-10 participants. The group is guided, coached and orchestrated by an experienced coach, who insures that content and value are not compromised, and that each willing participant maintains positive momentum. The minimum recommended commitment is 4 months.
A person in either type of group coaching can easily participate by placing a direct call into a central teleconference number from anywhere in the world, at a fraction of the cost of traditional operator-assisted conference calls. And no travel costs at all.

Group Coaching Topics may include:

  • Leadership and Communications for success

  • Creating a motivated and empowered team

  • The Vision of Your Business: Creating the tension between present and future

  • Defining your BOTTOM line success

  • Using technology to manage and grow your business

  • Time Management: Tools to make the most of your precious time

  • Defining the Pipeline: What/Who is your client?

  • Marketing Tools, Tactics and Techniques: What works? What doesn't? What's new?

  • Attraction Vs Selling

  • Creating a Referral Engine

  • Leveraging Connections

  • Client Retention: Customer Service and Added Value

  • Coaching Your Clients for their success

Flexibility of the Group Model: The Group Coaching model is most often customized to accommodate specific-business requirements and objectives, needs and concerns. The first step in customizing any group coaching program is to determine those needs and the effect coaching may or may not be able to provide. This initial consultation is via telephone and free.

Measurable Results: A plan to measure results can be created that meets the corporation's goals and objectives. Methods may include, but are not limited to, the corporation's particular methods of measuring their success on a daily basis combined with how the efforts and actions of each individual being coached contributes to that success. A system can be created to monitor short-term goals, activity levels and action steps taken, as well as the percentage of increase each individual sets and obtains per their monthly and quarterly goals.

Four significant reasons why group coaching works for companies, organizations, and related professionals:

  • When working as a coaching group, participants can rapidly share their individual/team best practices, for mutual benefit. As a result, great ideas are quickly integrated and distributed world-wide.

  • When working as a coaching group, participants can manage change quickly and respond without delay. As a result, change happens more smoothly and with less chaos.

  • When working as a coaching group, company and organizational initiatives are reached more easily. As a result, the bottom line is positively impacted.

  • When working as a coaching group, 50-100 years of combined wisdom from the participants accelerate the transfer of knowledge. As a result, each participant and their company reach their goals faster.

More questions or what is the next step? The best way to determine if group coaching could benefit your company or team is to engage in a conversation to answer questions you may have and to assess the needs of your particular company. This form of dialog can more clearly ascertain if coaching can successfully affect your company's bottom line.
