Coach's Corner

 Over the past 4 years I have been coaching, teaching, and assisting young men develop the necessary skills needed for their adult development. I am currently certified with AAU and USA hockey and coach at the 14U age travel level. I have been extremely fortunate to have coached some of the top youth inline and ice hockey players/ teams in the Southeast.

Over time, I created a simple list of guidelines that were developed specifically to assist me in coaching. But to my amazement, I have found them to be even more effective as a small business owner in the highly competitive
 
telecommunications industry.

Each month, I plan to discuss a simple guideline that I hope you find as beneficial and effective with your business as I have.

 

This month's guideline: 

Don't be afraid to take the more difficult path. Parents often fret when we play up an age group or level (ex. AA playing AAA). In most cases, you get your tail spanked. But these are often some of the best teaching / learning moment for kids. They see and experience the game from a different perspective and obtain an ideological grasp on what we are coaching and what needs to be achieved to be successful. It is very similar as a small business owner. To be successful, you often have to step out of your comfort zone. Sometimes learning and deploying new methods or products can lead to failure on a specific task but it often helps enlighten both you and your business yielding greater growth and even potentially providing better solutions for your customers. As an entrepreneur, don't hesitate to take a challenge simply because you might fail at it.
