"Our discussions over the past six months have helped me focus on what matters most, define and refine my role, and establish clear and realistic expectations for myself. Furthermore, I appreciate that the scope of our conversations include the balance between my ‘work’ and ‘non-work’ lives as these are inseparable in so many ways. I have owned and run my own businesses for more tan 15 years. With Maureen as my coach, I am finally maturing as an entrepreneur. I am no longer a ‘doer’ that owns the business; I am growing into an effective CEO and manager."

Who We Help

Our clients have included entrepreneurs, small business owners, family-owned businesses and corporations with up to $30 million in annual revenue, as well as individuals who want to lead a more fulfilled life or deal with a specific life event. They come to In Demand Coaching with a wide range of issues and needs related to achieving goals, leadership development, communications, and business planning, as well as personal and family issues.

The following is a list of the types of issues and needs we have helped our clients resolve and address:

• Obstacles that are preventing the client from meeting the goals of their company or their personal goals.
  
  We help the client by determining what’s blocking them and devising strategies for getting those obstacles out of their way
• Leadership Issues
  
  We help business leaders with motivating their people, with empowering themselves and others, with their communications style, and with understanding their strengths and knowing where they need to supplement them.
  
  Most importantly, we help leaders with managing people.  We help them understand the dynamics of relationships and the differences among people and what they bring to the table. We assist with conflict management by looking at root cause of an issue instead of the symptoms.  We also give leaders the tools to manage with “emotional intelligence and not react to emotions.
• Business planning
  
  We guide business owners and leaders through obtaining clarity with their vision for the company, and with setting goals and objectives and the accompanying metrics.  We hold our clients accountable to devising a solid business plan and possessing a sound business strategy.
• Cultural issues
  
  We help the client examine their beliefs and the types of behaviors they drive, ensuring they are intentional about the beliefs they want to have and clearly communicate them to their workforce to clarify expectations, minimize conflict and enhance productivity.  
• Team building
  
  We conduct exercises and activities with departments and groups to provide them with a fundamental understanding of what each member brings to the group and how to function better as a team.
• Time management
  
  We give clients the tools and structure to better prioritize and focus on what they need to do to get their work done in a timely manner and to accomplish their goals.
• Meeting management
  
  We serve as a third-party facilitator for meetings, helping with agendas, keeping the meeting on-track and arriving at a proper conclusion.
• Effective communications
  
  We guide clients through the techniques for improving their two-way and group communications.
