I often think of leading a company as one long road trip. You don’t just hop in the car and start driving. You answer these questions first: Where should we go? What do we need? What do we already have? What obstacles might we have along the way? Who’s in charge of what? How will we know when we get there?
As your coach, we’ll answer these questions together. And I’ll help you go on a road trip that’s one for the bucket list. Here’s how:
We start with your core foundation. Who are you? What are you the best in the world at? Who is your ideal customer? We’ll look at your purpose, your values, your strengths, and create a clear vision of who your customer truly is. The answers to all of these will guide the rest of our work.

Then we’ll dig deeper to understand your culture, which is of course guided by people. How will we build a high-performing team? How do we cultivate a thirst for learning and growth? Based on your culture, we’ll identify your ideal team player and assess how we create a cohesive team.
Here’s where we’ll look out past the horizon and think about where you really want to go. We’ll paint a vivid description with financial targets. We’ll get creative about how we get there. We’ll create a strategy—the route we want to take.

With a clear route, we’ll step on the gas and make progress. We’ll look at those financial targets, the annual initiatives, the quarterly priorities, and make sure we’re keeping on the right path.
The most important thing we’ll do is hold onto the wheel. We’ll manage your financial health all along the way. We’ll mindfully communicate finances to the rest of the team using tools and tips that measure and tell a clear story.

A successful road trip needs careful planning and driving.
But with the right partner and people, it can be the trip of a lifetime.
