Helping Entrepreneurs Find Balance - Coaching for Entrepreneurs

Helping Entrepreneurs Find Balance


A Fortune Small Business article that cites the annoying habits of entrepreneurs was quoted as saying “Entrepreneurs, almost by definition, are obsessed with achieving their goals.”  In interviewing executive coaches on that matter, an expert said, “Entrepreneurs kill themselves, literally. Their health goes straight to hell.” 
 

As I hung my head in shame, wincing from the vision of dust on my elliptical, I asked our panel about this.  Andrea Garfield piped up from a coaching perspective, focusing on the need for entrepreneurs to create a growth strategy, focus on running the company, and delegate day-to-day activities to staff.
 
She also shared many entrepreneurs have a personal a-ha when someone like a coach helps them realize they are missing their lives and can realize even greater success when they are balanced, rested, and happy.
 
I encourage our coaches in cyberspace to share their stories!

  • Are you seeing an increase in the number of clients who struggle with finding balance in their lives?
  • As coaches, how have you helped clients achieve greater balance?
  • From a coaching perspective, has it been your experience that balanced people are happier – and more successful – than those who aren’t?

We look forward to hearing from you.  Cheers from your host,
