Why your team needs a coach: Every team has a conversation it needs to have—but isn’t. That’s where I come in. I help clarify the topic, define success, keep time, and keep the group honest. I listen for what’s said—and what’s *avoided*. A coach lets the leader actually participate—and ensures more of what needs to be said gets on the table. When the boss speaks, it rarely lands as a suggestion. It lands as a mandate. That can kill the conversation—or at least hem it in significantly. When people say, “meetings are a waste of time,” they’re not wrong. But it’s not the meeting—it’s the structure. A team coach isn’t cheap. But it’s a hell of a lot less expensive than wasting the combined hourly rate of your whole team on another unproductive hour. If you’re thinking about trying coaching, give it a shot. The race to PMF is a team sport.
