| Although coaching will help you solve problems, improve performance, achieve goals, attain better results, and bring balance to your life, it is not about that. Those are just wonderful side effects of something more powerful at work. We use a mix of coaching and mentoring to help you develop a clear vision, direction, goals and roadmap for getting there in your work and in your life. Coaching is about awareness, focus and choice. You have everything you need to be your best and achieve your objectives. We simply help you get clear and stay clear on what you want to do, and how best to do it. In your business, your leadership, and your life, you will deepen you ability to: - Think about things in a way that yields new insight
- Improve the balance between work and play
- Inspire your team
- Communicate in a compelling way
- Become more persuasive
The Coaching Process We coach using a combination of respect, openness, compassion, and truth. It starts with listening - understanding your vision, objectives, and challenges. From there a plan forms that focuses on the 20% of the things that drive 80% of your life. Working together, you will experience insights that clarify what is most important in your life and you will construct a plan that will bring balance, enjoyment and newfound passion to your personal and business worlds. We are experienced executives, counselors and mentors that understand the challenges faced by individuals, teams, and organizations. As your coach, we become a trusted confidential resource, helping you gain insight, make choices, and take action.

Mayo |  | "Of all the skills of leadership, listening is the most valuable and one of the least understood. Most captains of industry listen only sometimes, and they remain ordinary leaders. But a few, the great ones, never stop listening. That's how they get word before anyone else of unseen problems and opportunities." Peter Nulty National Business Hall of Fame Fortune Magazine |  | "Finding someone who is both an active listener AND who is not afraid to ask good, focusing questions is a rarity these days. After talking with 8020 I feel understood, accepted and motivated to grow in positive ways." 8020 client |  | In my early professional years I was asking the question: How can I treat, or cure, or change this person? Now I would phrase the question in this way: How can I provide a relationship which this person may use for his own personal growth?
