Mindfulness Coaching for Executives and Business.

“When you do something, you should burn yourself completely, like a good bonfire, leaving no trace of 1 yourself....” Shunryu Suzuki

In my view, Business Coaching is quite a different concept to consulting. Consulting is more defined around problem solving and the direct suggestion to/of specific solutions. Generally, consulting implies that one identifies a problem that a client has and one proposes a solution. Business Coaching is more about the facilitation of a process so that the clients can, during sessions; self realize solutions and recognize new insights. Business Coaching therefore is about collaboratively seeking a solution and formulating an action plan. It looks into a broader perspective and helps in the development of a process for that business to progresst is a business support service industry aimed at helping owners plan, start, grow and even remove themselves from business.

Fortune 500 companies use coaches for specific needs such as: improving performance, or reducing the effects of job stress because it is more economical to "save or rebuild an employee" rather than hiring a replacement.

In Business Coaching there is a process of inquiry, analysis, contemplation and resolution for the purposes of pruning the business and workers to the ultimate success team.It doesn't matter whether you operate a manufacturing company, a financial services company, a garage, a beauty salon, a medical practice, a print shop, a grocery store, a restaurant, a travel agency, an insurance agency, or an internet business, and so on; a professional and qualified NLP and Business Coach will be able to assist you with the tough decisions, bold choices, setting goals and accepting challenges.  A Coach will work with confidentiality and empathy with you and will help you to develop a plan and stay on track to achieve those goals.

What unconscious blocks, patterns, habits and beliefs distract you from your goal?

Maintaining a cutting edge in our work and in life relies on our capacity to be fully present and knowing how to respond with skill and decisiveness in the present moment. Mindfulness practices help provide access to an immediate sense of calm, focus and clarity. With skilled guidance mindfulness increases self-awareness, improves concentration and focus, and can unleash creative potential that comes from not being sidetracked by negative, distracted forms of thinking and reactivity. When we can sustain attention without reactivity then we know how to effectively respond to stress, transform problems into learning situations and increase our access to untapped inner resources.

In today society where doing is the mantra and tune, stillness of the mind is a concept that still means to many anything from waste of time to a new age ideology. Nevertheless, there is a growing body of research in business and scientific disciplines that is revealing the benefits of stilling the mind through practices like mindfulness. The fast changes in the business environment and consumer culture are leading companies and entrepreneurs towards new ways of marketing that are authentic and meaningful. Executives and highly successful people are frequently held back by old limiting beliefs, unconscious forces unrecognizable to themselves, unresolved difficult emotions, and communications limitations. Mindfulness, which as a characteristic and practice has already confirmed to have numerous benefits in psychological scope, can also be useful in a business setting.

In both sitting meditation and work, one inclines to strive to focus on the task without thinking excessively about how the outcome of the work will affect oneself. When planning work, you should try to plan mindfully and think about outcomes without encouraging yourself to become attached to them. You should attempt to become “lost in your work,” in the good sense.

In mindfulness coaching for business, my primary focus is to guide you to live your potential, to optimize your ability to manifest your deepest intentions, and to live a satisfying and fulfilling life. As a mindfulness coach, I would never pretend to have all the answers. The objective here is to assist you to discover and realize what is important and to support you to achieve your purpose and vision in your work and life. This powerful approach can support you in exploring what interferes with you manifesting the life and purpose you envision.

What are your reasons for being in business? Most likely it’s because you want to be your own boss, make more time for your family, have a better lifestyle or have more wealth. If these benefits are taking longer than expected to eventuate, then a business coach could be the answer.

The core purpose of having a business coach is to reduce the likelihood that you fall into common small business traps. A business coach will ensure that you find more time to do the important things in your business and your life. You will have help to eliminate waste from your sales and marketing activity and develop systems that will allow you to choose the right staff to leverage your business. Your business coach will also work with you to create a sustainable process for generating new business.

Having a business coach facilitates you to create a business that gives you the life and free time you so much deserves and are looking for.

Often in the coaching session the coach will ask a series of questions, invite the clients to analyze the truth and pursue a course of action thought to be beneficial to the goals of the client. The client can accept the outcome, reject it, or negotiate a compromise.

A Business Coach will often take a multifaceted approach to helping a business improve. In some cases, a top-down approach is needed; such as when a CEO with control issues is hindering the success of the company. In other cases, a Business Coach will work from the bottom-up, working with each associate to better their own potential.

“It’s a fact: coaching works. Great coaches push us to peak performance — they help us achieve our personal best.  In sports, everyone knows the value of a great coach. Herb Brooks coached the 1980 U.S. Olympic Hockey team to a “Miracle on Ice.” Dean Smith coached a shy, skinny kid named Michael Jordan into a basketball legend. Angelo Dundee trained and coached Muhammad Ali into being the “greatest fighter of all time!” Now consider this: these great athletes were only playing games. In your life and your business, you’re playing for real — you’re fighting for your future, for your financial freedom and for your family’s security. It’s hard to succeed! Why would you go it alone?” Donald J. Trump

Your business is probably your most important investment. With proper planning and execution, your business can provide you with a commercially competitive income, dividends to enhance your lifestyle. The ultimately goal is to get you the income, lifestyle and time with your family that you're looking for.

Running a business requires determination and the ability to juggle many tasks simultaneously. Sometimes it is possible to lose sight of the bigger picture and when this occurs, the business becomes less effective, less profitable and much harder to control. It is during these times that business owners become overworked and require the services of a qualified business coach.
