Hey, it’s Big V. Today we’re looking into something crucial for anyone aiming to excel – selecting the right coach. Whether you’re an athlete, a business professional, or an entrepreneur, having the right coach can make all the difference. Just like in sports, business success isn’t achieved alone – it takes guidance, strategy, and someone who knows how to push you to your potential.
I’ve seen firsthand how a coach can transform not just a business but a lifestyle. Today, I’m going to walk you through what it takes to find the right coach and explain how a coach’s role goes far beyond friendly advice. I’ll also share what it means to be a Workman Success Coach and give you the opportunity to connect with one of our incredible business coaches. Let’s explore how the right coach can unlock your next level of success!
Why Finding the Right Coach Is Essential
If you think about the most successful teams or businesses, they almost always have one thing in common: a great coach. Success doesn’t happen by accident. A coach brings fresh perspectives, helps avoid mistakes, and keeps you on track when things get tough. But not every coach is created equal, and that’s why selecting the right one is absolutely essential.
Different stages of your journey often require different coaching strategies. A great coach can guide you through these transitions, offering insights that come from both personal experience and professional expertise. They’ve been there, done that—and now they’re here to make sure you avoid the same pitfalls.
Three Key Qualities of a Great Coach
When you’re searching for a coach, here are the top three things to look for:
1. Experience and Expertise
It’s one thing to have expertise in a subject, but without experience, it can be hard to truly make an impact. Some people say, “Those who can’t do, teach,” but that’s not the case with a great coach. At Workman Success, we find people with both proven experience and the ability to share that knowledge effectively. A great coach isn’t just someone who knows the business—they’ve lived it and succeeded in it.
2. Compatibility and Direct Counsel
Having a good relationship with your coach is important, but it doesn’t mean you need to be best friends. A great coach offers direct advice and actionable feedback—not just pats on the back. You need someone you respect and trust enough to follow their guidance, even when it’s uncomfortable. Coaching isn’t about hand-holding; it’s about helping you grow by giving you specific areas to focus on and improve.
3. Proven Results and Testimonials
Success leaves clues. Look for coaches with a track record of results, testimonials, and positive reviews. A coaching organization that consistently delivers results has built a framework you can trust. When you hear about others achieving success with the same coaching, it’s a good sign that you’ll experience similar results.
What It Takes to Become a Workman Success Coach
People often ask me, “What does it take to become a Workman Success Coach?” The journey is rigorous, and that’s intentional. At Workman Success Systems, our coaches go through an extensive process to ensure they have the skills and experience necessary to make a real impact.
Here’s what the journey looks like:
- Start as a Coaching Client: Before you can become a coach, you need to experience coaching yourself. This can take one to two years of active participation, where you learn, grow, and achieve results in your own business.
- Nomination and Selection: Once you’ve shown consistent success as a client, a coach may nominate you to begin the process of becoming a coach yourself.
- Comprehensive Training: Becoming a certified Workman Coach involves over 300 hours of specialized training, including facilitator courses and live coaching sessions in Salt Lake City. It’s a commitment of time, energy, and resources—but the rewards are worth it.
- Ongoing Mentorship: New coaches are mentored by experienced coaches, attending coaching calls and receiving feedback to sharpen their skills. This hands-on mentorship ensures that every Workman coach delivers high-quality guidance.
Why People Become Coaches
The people who join our coaching community aren’t just in it for the business success—they have a passion for helping others. The Workman coaching network is built on the principle of giving back. Our coaches are high performers who want to share what they’ve learned and make a positive impact on others’ lives.
We call it the “wisdom of the crowd.” Imagine being part of a group where everyone is committed to growth, success, and contribution. It’s not just about business strategies—it’s about creating balance, meaning, and purpose.
