| Response-Able Consulting NEWS-you-can-use-LETTER Coaching for Work | Business | Life Spring 2009 | | |
 Dear Paul,Welcome to our Spring 2009 NEWS-you-can-use-LETTER. This issue includes information to help you stay focused regardless of your circumstances. Let’s face it, there will always be something to challenge you, tempt you, stall you, derail you. And there will (almost) never be “the perfect time” for anything. My hope is that by using the information in this issue, you will think new thoughts that create new actions that generate better results faster than if you simply applied your existing hardwiring.

Is It time for a Business Coach An article appeared on a sales and marketing website asking, “Do you need a business coach when budgets are tight?” You might expect a trite answer. Instead, the article presents the value of using a business coach and how it’s different than working with a business consultant and it offers 5 questions (though it says 6) to ask yourself to help make the decision. Need more info about working with an executive business coach, check out the 2009 Sherpa Executive Coaching Survey. Finally, I would say that working with a coach is sometimes the ONLY time a person gets to step out of their work and take a more objective look at what they’re doing and where’s it’s taking them. Clients are often surprised at the results they get by “creating a space” to work with a coach on a regular basis. Even small changes can create big results. If you’re interested in finding out more about what it’s like to work with a coach, feel free to contact me with your questions by email or by phone, 516.216.4233, no strings attached. |
| Divorce Coaching for Men Now, on its own!  As a reader of the quarterly News-you-can-use-letter, you know about my specialty divorce coaching program for men. Given it is such a unique program focused completely on a life coaching issue — helping men move more easily and quickly through the fog of divorce — I have decided to break out the program as a business in its own right and start a separate newsletter to directly serve this group of men. Trish, my new bride and creative director of Agapito Design Studio, has even created a new logo for the business (see above)! What does this mean for you?! Two things. 1. If you know any men who are going into, through, or coming out of a divorce, please forward this newsletter to them so they can sign-up for the new Divorce Coaching 4 Men newsletter. It will have resources, tips, and suggestions to help men regain clarity and focus and start moving forward with their NewLife. 2. In place of DC4m in this newsletter will be a new section called “ASK THE COACH!“, where you can ask whatever questions you want and I’ll answer as many as I can in the next News-you-can-use-letter. |

Pamela Ross of Atlantic Human Resource Advisors  Pamela Ross is an experienced human resources expert, a successful business owner, and a very humble professional. She’s also the president of Atlantic Human Resource Advisors. Her company offers HR consulting and outsourcing services with a strong emphasis on labor and employment administration and compliance. Their unique approach is designed to meet the human resources needs of small- to medium-sized organizations, particularly those with limited in-house human resources capabilities. Pam’s business reminds me of Stephen Covey’s Quadrant II activities — not “urgent” but very important. As with all non-urgent but important activities, the danger in not acting is that when you need it most, it might be too late. Don’t get yourself in a bind. Contact Pam now to discuss how she might be able to help you address your company’s need for an HR Compliance System, an HR Portal, a Company Handbook, Policy Review & Development, HR Advice-on-Demand, an HR Report Card, or any Custom or Specialty HR Issues you might have. A conversation with Pam might just save you thousands of dollars and countless headaches. |
Quotes On …
Reflecting “Reading without reflecting is like eating without digesting.” ~Edmund Burke
“Reflect upon your present blessings – of which every man has many – not on your past misfortunes, of which all men have some.” ~Charles Dickens “Seeing within changes one’s outer vision.” ~Joseph Chilton Pearce “Only when the clamor of the outside world is silenced will you be able to hear the deeper vibration. Listen carefully.” ~Sarah Ban Breathnach “By three methods we may learn wisdom: first, by reflection, which is noblest; second, by imitation, which is easiest; and third, by experience, which is the most bitter.” ~Confucius “Follow effective action with quiet reflection. From the quiet reflection will come even more effective action.” ~Peter F. Drucker “My role in society, or any artist’s or poet’s role, is to try and express what we all feel.
