Many business owners take advantage of the mastermind process. Others use coaches or brainstorming sessions with colleagues. These and many other methods are available to aid us in the development of our businesses as well. The power that these partners can provide you and your organization, (regardless of its size) could very well be priceless.
Next month is an opportunity for the CAPS Ottawa members to explore another partnership formula which has created nothing short of a transformation within the Montreal Chapter.
Anyone who has been involved in a mastermind or coaching relationship for an extended period of time can understand how difficult it can be to break through the plateaus which are occasionally reached. The familiarity that you have with those around you can sometimes cloud the objectivity they bring when you are considering new ideas or directions.
The Power Partner formula can be a great solution in this case. By meeting with a group of colleagues; sharing ideas, resources and challenges you can gain a fresh perspective on your business. This new view can be brought back to your mastermind environment to move you forward to the next possibility.
When training to run, both distance and sprinting is emphasized to ensure an overall balance in ultimate performance. The Power Partner formula could be the sprint work that you are missing from your training regime.
If you are anything like I am, you'll have to admit that it is too easy to get caught up working in our businesses, rather than on them. During our May event at Chateau Montebello, we will have an opportunity to connect with professional members from the Montreal Chapter for the sole purpose of taking a new look at our businesses.
I look forward to seeing you there.
