Are there defining events in your past that set you on this path of helping people succeed at developing successful business? - More than a decade ago, after launching my digital media production and consulting business, I observed several small businesses and business owners who had a good product or service idea or actually developed a great product or offered a great service, but demonstrated no insight into how to get it to the market or did not clearly define their market. I observed a common recurring theme of bright, innovative business owners whose process ended at product or service development, without a detailed, passion filled, innovative, best-practices oriented, principled approach for how they would get people to buy and then how they would grow their market share. Observing this, I recognized that I could offer value to such business owners. I recognized that this was also opportunity knocking for me.

How do you measure success for your clients? What breakthroughs, milestones or transformations must occur? - It comes in stages. (1) When they see validation that their idea is a great one. (2) When they see and then understand how and why their business will work and grow. (3) When they see their business successfully engage the market.
How do you measure success for yourself as a coach? - When my clients are able to use what I taught them to run and grow their business. When they express new, bigger dreams.
How would you define your leadership style?
