Coaching for Executives of SMB’s

Are you an owner or a top manager for an SMB (small to mid-sized business)? 

As a life-long small business owner and manager, along with 16 years of consultiing for other companies, I am moving from direct consulting engagements into coaching programs for executives and managers at SMB’s.  I have been learning that more and more business owners are not getting out of thier companies the personal returns on thier investments in money and time that they had expected to receive.

I can directly assist you in finding the answers to your “why” and “why not” questions relating to those expected…but not realized returns.  Most often, the answers are within you but not coming out because you simply do not know which questions to ask.

For a free initial discussion, call or email me to discuss your unique situation and to learn how I can help you.

Beginning Again

I had lost my username and my password. Was able to get the info I needed from support so I am able to begin again to post to my blog.  I am simply going to post as I feel like it with the knowledge that the key is to post on a consistent basis.  I will let the blog evolve into something that interests me and will be open to whatever direction it takes.

Using Dragon Naturally Speaking

I am dictating this directly into my Toshiba tablet PC.  I’m using Dragon NaturallySpeaking.

my plan is to utilize this tool more often so that I can do a better job of quickly capturing different thoughts and ideas.  Also it is a great tool for writing my drafts for journal entries as well as entries into this blog.

If anyone has significant experience using the Dragon Naturally Speaking software in their writing, I’d appreciate hearing any thoughts and ideas that they might have in that regard.  Also any tips on the use of the software would be greatly appreciated.

Start with Categories…

I’m going to start playing with categories.  I just want to see how they show up and how to use them.  I might then see if I can go to a few of the recent posts and put them into an appropriate category.  I think the idea would be to have as few “uncategorized” posts as possible.

Not Sure How the Blogging Stuff works…

I am not sure how this blogging stuff works but I’ve come to the immediate conclusion that the only way to find out is to just start doing it.  It looks like I’m able to write a blog and then enter it into the site, that is published it.  But then I don’t know what comes of it, or how to access it the Internet.

I will try to see if I can bring it up in the Internet after publishing the sentry.
