intersection of personal freedom and business reality.
A

politics and human dynamics in group process and teams.
A
Business Coach tests assumptions about business systems and why things
are...through interactions with people in the business system.
A
Business coach has a deep respect for the individual and their right to be an
individual while serving the interests of the business system, the individual's
role in that system and how their performance, change and transformation efforts
affects the system (themselves and others) in general.
A
Business Coach holds the collective interests of the organization as fundamental
to the well-being of the individuals in that organizational system.
A
Business Coach recognizes misalignments between individuals and business systems
and their roles in those systems and "facilitates alignment" in the
interests of both the individual and organizational system.
A
Business Coach is respectful of the soul of an organization and makes every
attempt to value individual human contribution to the collective soul of
business.
A

through a strong leadership foundation.
A

facilitate organizational effectiveness through coaching interactions.

interaction in terms of that complex web of relationships and interactions of
individual and organizational elements.
A
Business Coach understands the role of a business person--how it may separate
the person from themselves and from others in the execution of that role—and
the integration we all desire between our life, our soul, our experience and our
contribution at work.
A
Business coach seeks to reunite the individual person with their roles in
business and to question and respect mal-alignment while seeking to merge the
whole person in terms of awareness, purpose, competence and well-being at work,
at life or at play.
A
Business coach holds the ambiguity of right action while interacting with the
person being coached to find right action in purpose towards contributing to
organizational effectiveness.
A
Business Coach is able to function in a turbulent and constantly changing
business system filled with ambiguity; seeking to value purpose, competence,
awareness and well-being among individuals, organizations and the customer
environment.
A

dialogue that illuminates a clear path for the individual and their role in the
collective organization.
A

that individuals create organizational behavior.

and that great work is done by regular people bound into a common vision of
greatness.
