“I’ve had over 10 coaches in a long business career. I’ve seen all the models. I’ve written all the checks. My process is nimble, efficient, cost-effective and empowering. No long-termed contracts. No loose, “counseling” like format. We have specific focus, intention and accountability towards what matters to you always.” – Victoria Winburne
COACHING FOR BUSINESS OWNERS & LEADERS
Strategic Business Coaching for business owners and leaders who think like owners in order to achieve greater control and impact over their business and personal life.
We look at what you most want for your business and your role in it. We also identify the few key numbers or indicators that tell you that all the people, dollars and processes are working so you can work on your business, not always in it. If we are not careful, our businesses can consume and own us. We can turn that around and stay on top of our businesses consistently with an experienced thinking partner by our side. We also look at what you most want to avoid. We create a playbook towards your 3-year goals and ensure that each week we are taking bite-sized pieces out of the most important steps to reach those goals. We work nimbly and smartly. Clients tackle such things as –
- more revenue and profit,
- getting things done and done well,
- conflict resolution,
- partner and investor relations,
- employee engagement,
- efficient operations,
- financial leverage,
- decision making,
- sales and business development
- leadership impact and development.
It can get lonely at the top. We can get stuck thinking the same things repeatedly with no idea how to move the mark. If we are not careful, our roles can consume us. We can turn that around and stay on top of our careers and aspirations consistently with an experienced thinking partner by our side. Avoid sleepless nights and let us team with you to advance you and your role. We create a plan towards your 3-year goals and ensure that each week we are taking bite-sized pieces out of the most important steps to reach those goals. The plan can focus on such things as –
- reputation management,
- executive development,
- career advancement,
- employee motivation and advancement
- private performance goals,
- company performance goals,
- team-related aspirations,
- company politics and processes,
- efficiency
- focus, time and resource leverage
- stakeholder engagement
- and accountability.
Clients
What my clients are sayingAs a founder, there's a certain panic that sets in once you realize that your business is actually going to work. And maybe it's happening a little too quickly and it's starting to take on a life of its own. That's when you need to get some help. I started working with Victoria because of her experience in my industry (investment advice / wealth management), but I stay with her because she is a perfect combination of friend + taskmaster. Great coaches know when to listen and when to push, and Victoria walks that line with patience, grace and humor. In one year I was able to get a clear picture of what my clients want my business to be AND what I need my business to be. Best of all, I have a process in place to make it happen. If you're looking for growth and clarity, Victoria can get you there.
Victoria is an ideal coach for business owners who are skilled in their field, have achieved a measure of success and are now committed to going beyond what's comfortable to reach to their full potential. I appreciate how she is focused on building her client's suite of internal skills, tools and network of resources rather than conditioning them to depend on her for every decision. She is a master of her own craft, communicates effectively, delivers on her promises and promises only what she is confident she can deliver. She serves as a valuable thought partner for my practice and I have seen a measurable return on investment since engaging her.
Victoria is outstanding at what she does. I've worked with multiple coaches over the years (and done some coaching myself), and no one compares to her thoroughness and experience, and focus on getting the right results. She's also very compassionate and understanding, but she's also insistent about setting appropriate, sensible goals, and making plans towards achieving them, and tracking the progress all the way. My productivity always goes up when I work with Victoria. I recommend her highly.
Victoria has been a great mentor and friend! She has helped me stay focused on the important things and to avoid the "shiny" balls. She's brings years of experience and wisdom to the table which has helped my business tremendously!
