You’re an entrepreneur with a new business idea. How can you find the right coach to help you succeed?

Setting Your Sights: Before diving into the coaching pool, get crystal clear on your destination. Imagine your business as a ship; what's your North Star? Knowing your vision, goals, and the seas you navigate (challenges and opportunities) helps you pick the captain (coach) who can steer you right. It's about aligning your compass!

Im Coaching sind klar definierte Ziele der Schlüssel zum Erfolg. Die Vision ist der Leuchtturm, der uns den Weg weist. Sie ist das Bild von dem, was wir erreichen wollen, eine inspirierende Vorstellung unserer Zukunft. Die Mission definiert den Zweck unseres Handelns. Sie beschreibt, was wir tun, um unsere Vision zu verwirklichen. Die Kenntnis unserer St?rken und Wachstumsfelder ist entscheidend für unser pers?nliches Wachstum. Mit Mut auch auf unsere Wachstumsfelder zu schauen und der Bereitschaft Themen anzugehen kann Coaching sein volles Potential entfalten.

To find a coach for your new business idea, define your needs, research potential coaches, evaluate their experience and compatibility, clarify expectations and fees, then start coaching sessions and monitor progress for effective guidance and support.

Coach Quest: With your goals as your map, embark on a treasure hunt for the perfect coach. Dive into the digital ocean, network islands, and referral reefs. Look for a coach with the map (experience), compass (expertise), and flag (reputation) that match your journey. Their voice should be the wind in your sails, guiding you forward.

In my experience, LinkedIn is a good platform to find a coach as you can see their portfolio and personality if they are active.

Primero: busca a un especialista y evita contratar a un coach todólogo (aquellos que trabajan por igual en acompa?amiento a parejas que a emprendedores). Segundo: ?no todo lo que brilla es oro! Por eso, te recomiendo comenzar buscando referencias dentro de tu círculo cercano. Si no encuentras, revisa los perfiles de profesionales que te inspiran confianza, que idealmente conoces o sigues desde hace un tiempo. Como tercer paso, te recomiendo revisar testimonios en LinkedIn y contrasta lo que encuentras con lo que ves de esa persona en otros medios digitales. Por último, busca entrevistarte personalmente con la persona antes de contratar sus servicios. La mayoría de los coaches profesionales cuentan con sesiones de exploración gratuitas.

Although people may underestimate the significance of chemistry between a coach and a coachee, it is crucial to ask for a consultation when searching for a coach. A consultation allows you to gauge the compatibility between you and the coach, assess their coaching style, and determine if you feel comfortable and understood. Building a strong rapport and trust with your coach is essential for a successful coaching relationship and a consultation provides an opportunity to ensure that the connection is there before committing to working together.

The Consultation Compass: Reach out to potential guides for a consultation compass, a sneak peek into your journey together. It's your chance to quiz them on the route, weather (challenges), and treasures (outcomes) ahead. Seek a coach who tunes into your frequency, sparking a beacon of insight and strategy.

Schedule discovery calls with a few prospect coaches. Ask them as many questions as possible. Do you research upfront and learn about the different coaching methods. This way you can ask informed questions and find the approach that works for you.

Navigating Choices: After meeting with your potential navigators, it's time to chart who's who in your sea of options. Weigh their treasures (strengths) and storms (weaknesses) with a sailor's eye—cost, course (availability), and crew compatibility. Seek tales (testimonials) of their voyages to ensure they're true captains of industry.

Sail Together: Choosing your coach is just the beginning; now, you set sail together. Draft your voyage contract, mark the charts (goals), and agree on the signals (communication). With a blend of trust, respect, and collaboration, let your coach guide you through uncharted waters to new horizons of success. Here's to a journey of growth and discovery!
