Why a Professional Strategic Planner Needed a Professional Coach for Planning
I have 30+ years of experience as a professional strategic planner in a large, complex healthcare organization. Why then, when it came to my own personal strategic thinking, did I need the help of a professional coach? Because it WAS personal, and I was getting in my own way. I was dealing with a significant family caregiving situation and because I was so close to the issue, I found myself avoiding hard decisions in hopes that the situation would spontaneously improve. If only I could hold out just a little longer…that was my plan, unrealistic though it may have been. That’s where Kathy at GoalFirm stepped in. She expertly, with grace and humor, guided me on a realistic path to where I needed to be in the next six months. It gave me the gentle push I needed to research options and make hard but necessary decisions. Yes, I had to step out of my comfort zone. But once I had a realistic plan, I regained the clarity of purpose and energy I needed to take action. Whether you are developing a personal or business strategy, you will not regret engaging Kathy and GoalFirm to guide you. Thank you, Kathy and GoalFirm, for propelling me in the direction of my dreams. I would not be where I am now without you.
