Why is mentoring so useful for existing established businesses?
Mentoring is a great way to check on how you are running your business, to reflect and to plan ahead. Many business owners are so busy working on the day to day demands of their business they do not find the time to look at the bigger picture – no criticism, that’s the way it is. Often, when running a business, the focus is on the clients, customers, finances, sales figures and the staff – all important. However, this means the owner is working ‘in the business, not on the business’.
Work with Chris Dowling and you will benefit from a person-centred mentoring approach, tackling the issues and solving the problems that concern you. You can take a look at how you operate in your business and also look at your wider goals and targets and the results achieved.
