business coach in westchester: ENGAGE YOUR EMPLOYEE TEAMS THROUGH ACCOUNTABILITY AND RESULTS - 03/09/13 02:26 PM
Like many of you I have read articles about Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer’s decision to discontinue allowing work at home.  As of June all employees must come to an office.  Whatever you think about the decision one thing is very clear.  Teams of employees need to be accountable for results.  In the case of Yahoo, Mayer had discovered that employees were not being held accountable.  How did she know?  She looked at data which showed that very little work was being done through the company’s online systems.  The results lately at Yahoo have been lagging other tech companies.  The decision may … (5 comments)

business coach in westchester: WHAT’S HOLDING YOU BACK FROM SUCCEEDING? - 02/09/13 10:05 PM
I was recently contacted by a member of a business organization where I am a member.  I am a new member mentor in this organization.   I had already had a meeting to learn about my new member’s business and goals in joining the organization.  About a month later she contacted me.  She said that she was not quite sure she wanted to come to events because she was confused about explaining which business she was in.  Was she unsure or was something else holding her back?
It turns out that she is holding back until she gets it perfect.  By the … (15 comments)

business coach in westchester: WHY DOES EVERYONE TALK TO ME ABOUT GOAL SETTING - 12/15/12 12:11 PM
Recently I had a conversation with a colleague who told me that this year had not been going as he expected.  When I asked him how it compares to his plan he told me he had no plan.   Your business can't go according to plan if you have no plan.
What did you do this past year?  Write it down.  What worked well and what didn’t.  What do you want to achieve in 2013?  More new customers per month?  Higher average per customer sale? Better customer service ratings? No matter what it is you are shooting for, goal setting is one … (10 comments)

business coach in westchester: DO YOU INVEST TIME OR SPEND TIME? - 12/01/12 10:08 PM
It is true that you will get more out of the time you have when you learn to get more out of your life.  What do you want?  What are your values?  What do you believe and what are your priorities?  The answer to these questions will determine how you spend your day.  In order to get more out of you time, you need to know what you want to get out of it.
There is a difference between spending time and investing time.  According to Webster to spend is to use up, exhaust, or consume.  In other words if you … (11 comments)

business coach in westchester: A HOME IMPROVEMENT CONTRACTOR IN WESTCHESTER EMBRACES SUSTAINABILITY - 06/27/12 02:02 PM
Several years ago Alfonso Ciampa,  co-owner of Home Improvements by Antonio Ciampa, approached me to help him develop a plan to take his home contracting business to the next level.  As a business coach working with family businesses I saw a great opportunity for Alfonso to make a difference by separating himself from his competition.
The company was started by his father, Antonio over 30 years ago.  Through hard work and attention to detail Antonio, an immigrant from Italy, built a reputation for  “European Craftsmanship American Made”.  Like most contractors here in Westchester County New York Alfonso and his father had … (2 comments)

business coach in westchester: CREATING CUSTOMER LOYALITY PROGRAMS IN WESTCHESTER NY - 06/26/12 12:20 AM
I am sure everyone has their favorite restaurant.  The reason it is your favorite could be that they make a menu item just the way you like it.  Or they always have a table waiting for you, or they greet you by name when you come in, ask how you are doing and ask about your family.  In short the restaurant gave you a great guest experience.
I am a business coach based in Armonk, NY and I have had the pleasure helping my clients in Westchester County develop customer loyalty programs that produce great sales and profits.

business coach in westchester: WHAT IS THE MOST COMMON ISSUE FACING SMALL BUSINESS FAQ & POST #2 - 06/01/12 03:58 AM
Many small businesses are started with the best intentions.  In many cases the business owner previously held a very successful position in corporate America.
The  business owner has to make quite a shift from corporate executive to small business owner.
 
 
Although the owner has the skills or has learned them from buying a franchise or receiving a real estate license he or she will not be successful unless a plan of action is followed.
Knowing what to do and doing it is two differenct things.
Owners old and new struggle with executed their plans.  Let's face it.  We all … (0 comments)
