For many coaches, one-on-one coaching is the foundation and the
cornerstone of many practices. It is also a valuable service to
maintain as you grow and expand both your practice and your services.
While very rewarding,
one-on-one coaching is not the best way to leverage your time or
your earning potential as a coach. Enter the Group Coaching possibility.
Here are some of the advantages to expanding your practice with
group coaching:
You,
the Coach, will:
- Reach out
to more people
- Connect people
from diverse geographical locations over the phone
- Give your
target market more than one way in which to experience you
- Leverage
your time and energy by working with groups
- Remain affordable
by charging less for each participant and still increase your
own hourly earnings
Your
clients will:
- Have a larger
support team
- Access your
services for less
- Benefit from
the collective wisdom of the group
- Experience
the dynamic and fun group energy
- Connect with
other like-minded people
- Experience
more people knowing and caring about their goals and dreams
Managing a group
requires all of the one-on-one skills you have acquired. You'll
also be touching the lives of many more people and expanding your
circle of influence.
The Coach
Training Accelerator™ devotes an entire section to helping
you develop your group coaching skills. Here are just a few pointers:
- Know the
group's purpose and communicate that clearly.
- Be selective
about group members.
- Have a time
frame that the whole group commits to working together.
