Business Coaching - FOCUSING ON SOLUTIONS!

How many business owners go into business with an objective of working 70 hours plus per week? Most people have a dream and a vision of where their business will take them; lots of time with family, regular holidays, high quality lifestyle, an ability to contribute. Many end up self-employed doing a whole range of things they are not passionate about. They think that working harder will help the business grow. Virtually, all they have done is buy a job that they are tied to.

Our approach is “hands on”. Our Positive Psychology Coaches work within businesses with CEO’s and Management teams and help them achieve goals & targets. Our vision is to educate, create solutions and our structured systems deliver permanent change. WE HAVE THE TEAM FOCUSED ON ACTION, A COMMITMENT TO ACHIEVEMENT, CREATING A CORPORATE IDENTITY OF TEAM STRENGTH AND OPTIMISM.

Finding the RIGHT people for the Right roles giving you the "OPTIMISM EDGE!"

The right people are invaluable assets. Establishing if a person great at the interview will fit into your team, can take months. Finding out that their skills are not as expected is costly and time consuming. IT COULD ACTUALLY COST AN EMPLOYER THEIR BUSINESS.

Until now there has not been a way to measure “Signature Strengths”, such as OPTIMISM, TENACITY, COURAGE, RESILIENCE; enabling you to really understand the person you are bringing into your business. Will they fit? Are they a motivated Leader? What is their Management style? What if you could have a better understanding of the strengths of your team?

We can show you the communication style of your team and how to use this to create a better way to communicate with your clients. We can also show how to turn a procrastinator into someone motivated and focused, increasing their productivity. Readmore..

David Packard, cofounder of HP, observed that a great company is more likely to die of indigestion from too much opportunity than starvation from too little. Inspired by this insight, Jim Collins' team created Packard's Law which states that "no company can consistently grow revenues faster than its ability to get enough of the right people to implement that growth and still become a great company."

Building High Performance Teams

Profiling identifies important individual strengths, how team members complement each other and how we use this to overcome adversity, motivate and create momentum. Productivity and Profitablity is measurably improved when combined strengths and passions are directed towards a common focus and goals.

Focus on Strengths!
Team exercises that focus on individual strengths allow team members to delegate their challenges to other team members with strengths in these areas.

CLIENT SUCCESS STORY:

For the last five years, Xcellerate IT have applied this approach and have built a dynamic team to include technical IT consultants, Service Manager and Project Manager, who all understand their own particular strengths and subsequently deliver a united solution to all their clients.

Our training programs have helped Xcellerate IT to realise clients needs and their preferred way of communicating. Their progess is measured by increased productivity and profitability. More client success stories & testimonials

How to Achieve Business Targets:
What if you and your team had focus and discipline with written, visual or experiential Goals and were exposed on a daily basis to clearly identified targets that would deliver profitability?

What if your team members were reactive instead of pro-active?

Our Executive Strategic Coaching programs ensure Management and Team develop their own personal goals alongside business goals. With strengths aligned and working as a team, targets both business and personal, are achieved much faster.

TRYING TO SUCCESSFULLY RUN A BUSINESS WITHOUT CLEAR, WRITTEN, VISUAL GOALS IS LIKE SETTING SAIL WITHOUT A RUDDER. Contact us for a unique complimentary ONE PAGE Strategic Business Plan.

OPTIMISM PROFILING & BENCHMARKING

Unlike any other profile tool or aptitude test, Signature Strengths Profiles determine levels of OPTIMISM!

(Giving you "The Optimism Edge" the difference that makes the difference)

Candidate interviews are conducted at a conscious level using résumé’s and conscious questions. Behaviour is like the “Iceberg Principle” 20% we can see (conscious) and 80% of behaviour we can’t see, (sub-conscious).

WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT?

Signature Strengths Profiling
helps to detect the Icebergs. (Underlying and Surface Beliefs).

I.E. Does this person really believe that they have the skills to be successful in this role?

Are they a Team Player?

A procrastinator?

Or a great Leader, able to motivate themselves and their team?

Most Candidate interviews are based on conscious questions. Most profile systems are generic with conscious based questions. They typically map a person’s personality, characteristics, conscious and learned behaviour, often putting people into colours or quadrants.

Conscious thinking is ego based. It is who we present to the world. It is not who we really are. Personality comes from the Latin word "Persona" which means mask. It is the face we put on for the world to perceive us. We need this to survive. It is self-construed, inconsistent and may chan ge according to situation and context.

The truth is what makes us perform well, be happy and keep focused on what we are good at, is actually at the sub conscious level. Our true self is offered in the sub-conscious. Peak Potential & Performance Profiling asks sub-conscious questions which show the true person, their strengths and capabilities.

Our Business Coaching Programs can up-skill team members to move them into Optimism, breaking through all challenges.

OPTIMISTIC people give your business the "OPTIMISM EDGE".
They are motivated, confident and see challenges as short term setbacks, not long term failures.
They don’t give up and will try different ways to succeed.

An optimist sees an opportunity in every calamity;
A pessimist sees a calamity in every opportunity. Sir Winston Churchill

STRATEGIC SALES PLANNING
5 STEP SALES PROCESS

SETTING UP AND COMPLETING THE SALE!
Sales People can be great in client relationships, but may not necessarily know how to ask for or close a sale. Some just assume that the client will purchase from them based on the relationship.

The Meaning of Selling: The word sell comes from the Norwegian ‘selje’, and it means ‘to serve’. Successful selling is about serving the client: it’s not about the salespersons need to sell. It requires listening to find out what the client really wants and providing this to them.

Our 5 step sales process methodology will show how to communicate with clients, entering into their model of the world to communicate in their language. Once learned, the confidence and motivation to close a sale is increased, business excels.

We coach:-

Strategies in how to serve your client’s needs resulting in successful sales
Effective planning before calling
How to establish the clients communication style
Understanding the clients needs by asking the right questions and then listening
Learn how to present solutions in your clients dominant communication style
Follow through for greater results

STRESS MANAGEMENT
Balancing HEALTH, WEALTH & WISDOM

Create more time to RELAX…

The foundation of having a balanced life is managing stress. Stress causes a myriad of health problems and sleepless nights.

With new knowledge, you can create new solutions, and that's what we provide Business Owners and CEO’s...

(Ask us about our forthcoming workshops)

You do have much more control than you think. The simple realisation that you are in control and you do have solutions, steps and systems to break through these temporary challenges is the foundation for stress management.

Managing stress is about taking charge of your thoughts, your emotions, your daily work/family life schedule, your environment and the way you deal with problems. The ultimate goal is a balanced life, with time for work, relationships, relaxation and fun – plus the resilience to hold up under pressure and meet challenges head on.

Stress management starts with identifying the sources of stress in your life. This isn’t as easy as it sounds. Your true sources of stress aren’t always obvious, and it’s all too easy to overlook your own stress-inducing thoughts, feelings, and behaviours.

You may know that you're constantly worried about work deadlines. It maybe that the cause is your "Explanatory Style", resulting in procrastination, rather than the actual job demands - that leads to deadline stress.

Signature Strengths Profiling helps you understand your “Explanatory style” and how to change this so it is supportive. (Explanatory style is the way in which we explain the events that happen to us in our lives, either good or bad. Some of us may have a more pessimistic explanatory style, so that we blame ourselves when things don't go right (e.g. "it was my fault") and will not take credit for success, (e.g. "it was just luck"). Some of us may have a more optimistic explanatory style so that we do not blame ourselves totally when things go wrong.

To minimize stress in the Business environment, Synergy Success Strategies combine Dr. Seligman’s 30 years of research in behavioral psychology and his ABCDE (Adversity through to Energization) proven coaching methods, with Dr. Tad James, Neuro Linguistic Programming and Dr. Thomas Stanley (MD & Neurologist) successful mindset, to CREATE A UNIQUE ON-LINE PROFILING SYSTEM AND COACHING METHODOLOGY.

Personal Strengths
Up-skill to Peak Performance

Identify and focus onyour KEY STRENGTHS which will allow you to PERFORM at the HIGHEST LEVEL

Once people have been de-briefed on the findings in their PPP Profile, we identify key strengths important to performing at the highest levels in their particular role.

If people have average strengths in important areas, we will coach them in the Positive Psychology processes of increasing skills and optimism. i.e. Dr. Seligman’s ABCDE coaching model. Once all Team members have mastered this model, we can apply it to Team challenges and the energisation and success of resolving all challenges increases dramatically.

CLIENT SUCCESS STORY: CEO’s can transition from focusing on a wide range of tasks and delegate to other team members who will have higher strengths and passions in these areas. Recently, when we analysed our client team profile results, we established that the CEO’s strengths included Relationship Management, great Presentation skills, with an impressive ability to win business.

Our analysis showed that over 40% of his time was focused on daily administration which became stressful, because his strengths and passions were elsewhere. Subsequently, we helped him delegate to Team members with strengths in the areas he disliked; releasing his time to focus on core strategies – to win new clients and increase investment. We cannot emphasise enough that…

FOCUSING ON STRENGTHS creates MOTIVATION, ENTHUSIASM, A WILL TO GO MANY EXTRA MILES!
