Much progress was made in 2009 with regard to profit coaching for subway franchisees, and in 2010, in addition to franchisees, I’ll be expanding my focus to include Organizational Leadership and Business Coaching.  In these difficult times many organizations and businesses are seeking leadership for a new direction, and with the right coaching they can set new goals and develop successful strategies to achieve them.

It’s a new year and time to set new goals, but before you do here are some tips that will help you set and achieve goals that bring you closer to the realization of your vision:

1. Create a compelling vision for your business.  What kind of organization do you want to become?  Who benefits?  How will you create it?  Why does it matter?
2. Identify the different areas of business necessary for the realization of your vision.  On who will reaching the ultimate goal depend?  For example:  Marketing, Bookkeeping, Training, Sales, Product Development, Leadership, Public Relations, Financing, and so on…
3. Create a timetable for the completion of all your goals.  A goal without a completion date is just an idea.  Turn what you could do into what you will do by making a commitment to have it done by the due date.
4. Review your goals monthly to check for progress and make adjustments.
5. Hire a Coach to help guide you through the process of creating your business game plan, making strategic adjustments as the game unfolds, and holding you accountable for the outcome.

Finally, as you contemplate all that lies before you this year, remember it’s leadership that sets the course and provides direction for all achievement great or small.

Strive to be more!
