In this Career Coaching Secrets episode, host Rexhen interviews Jeff Sesol, an award-winning leadership coach, best-selling author, and host of the Pull to Shoot podcast. Jeff's mission is to help leaders grow from the inside out, fostering company success by developing people.
His coaching journey, sparked during COVID-19, stems from a belief in "Grow Your People, Grow Your Company," shifting from consulting to broader coaching. The "Pull to Shoot" metaphor, inspired by skydiving, represents gaining control and clarity in business and life.
Jeff primarily coaches founders and owners to empower their teams, and mid-level corporate leaders on essential skills like trust and emotional intelligence. The most rewarding aspect is seeing clients apply lessons and achieve breakthroughs.
He works with SMBs (small to medium businesses) on growth and offers leadership development programs for corporate teams, with engagements typically lasting six months to multiple years. His main client acquisition method is person-to-person networking, supported by an international team. Jeff is also building a commission-based sales team to expand internationally, aiming to help over 200 companies grow.
Key investments include his books and the podcast, which build credibility and partnerships. He found cold email outreach ineffective, highlighting the importance of personal connection. A challenge is navigating generational communication differences in the workforce.
