I love it when episode topics pop up organically in the STaR Coach Community. A community member recently faced the challenge of creating a proposal for an organization around assessments and coaching. In guiding her through the proposal process, I knew this would be a topic of interest and a great benefit to other coaches. 

In this episode, you will learn the key elements to consider when creating a proposal, along with strategies that are applicable to individual and team coaching. This episode is packed with practical information to help you learn the best strategies for responding to an RFP (request for proposal). Join us to learn more!
