Strategic Coach Lecture

Introduction

  • Lecturer: Dan Sullivan
  • Host: Paulette Zapatti
  • Focus: Entrepreneurial coaching for personal and business growth
  • Experience: 45 years of coaching entrepreneurs

Purpose of Strategic Coach

  • Expand four freedoms for entrepreneurs:
    1. Freedom of Time: Main currency for change in entrepreneurial life.
    2. Freedom of Money: Freed up time translates to better money and more money.
    3. Freedom of Relationship: Includes both internal team and external clients.
    4. Freedom of Purpose: Business as a vehicle for accomplishing life goals.

Reasons Why Small Businesses Stay Small

  1. Mindset of Scarcity vs. Abundance
  2. Concerned with past/future, not the present
  3. Focus on transactions, not transformations
  4. Prioritizing security over opportunity
  5. Fixation on competition, not collaboration
  6. Aim for status, not growth
  7. Driven by ego, not capability
  8. See money spent as cost, not investment

Key Concept: Who Not How

  • Shift From: How am I going to do this?
  • To: Who is going to do this for me?
  • Educational system trains for 'how,' not 'who.'
  • Greater breakthroughs by leveraging external 'who's.
