Greetings!

The theme for the September issue of Pathways to Success is Business Coaching. In the past, there has been a stigma of "remedial" work with the involvement of a business coach. In reality, the coaching relationship brings about enormous possibilities. It is about unleashing the potential that lies within each of us. As the first article provocatively asks, "Can you afford not to?"

Each month it is my hope that you can find insight and a reason to self-reflect from these articles.
Please to colleagues and friends if you found them valuable. And, if you haven't done so already, please sign up on my website to receive continuing editions. Thanks for your continued support and interest! Enjoy reading! 

Sincerely,
Steve

Sometimes people expect coaches to serve as mentors. They want their coach to go before them and show them the way. However, the coach's role is not to lead you. Rather it is to help you discover for yourself where you are today and where you want to be in the future. Once you chart your own course, your coach will accompany you on the journey and provide ongoing support, guidance, and encouragement.
