      Kim’s Clients

      • Kim coaches highly driven individuals who have three things in common:
      • Big goals.
      • Make a difference in the world.
      • Spirited people who want to live an extraordinary life.

        •  

        Journaling

        • This helps get to the source of beliefs, values, behaviors, and patterns.
        • If you are not working with a coach, then journaling is a vehicle for personal awareness and insight.

          •  

          Barriers to Overcome

          • The contents of the journal are an entry point to starting a dialogue and going deeper.
          • Even if what is presented is a rosy version and not quite the truth, it is able to be drilled down to get to the heart of the matter.

            •  

            Personal Versus Business

            • There is no separation.
            • The way you think in one area of your life will affect how you think in another area.
            • Journaling looks at how your thinking impacts your outcomes.
            • When your thinking aligns with your goals, your behavior follows.

              •  

              Examining Thought

              • This is less about managing behavior and more about shifting thought.
              • If you always think what you always thought, you will always get what you always got.
              • The belief lays the foundation.

                •  

                Thinking Differently

                • Are your beliefs leading you toward your goals?
                • Beliefs are inherited from our parents, environment, friends, peers, and the media.
                • With gradual shifts and beliefs, people can experience extraordinary outcomes.

                  •  

                  Emotional Resilience

                  • This is the ability to bounce back from adversity with great speed and agility.
                  • This is about leveraging adversity and doing something positive with a negative experience.
                  • People with a higher degree of emotional resilience will be more likely to succeed at anything they do.

                    •  

                    Leadership

                    • Leaders need to understand the role they play in the organization and that their thinking impacts their team more than any other factor.
                    • Reinforce leaders with coaching skills.
                    • Leaders are adept at punishing when there is a problem and promoting when there is a success. This creates inequity.
                    • It’s important to coach your team and not manage it.
                    • The way a leader sees their team is how they will show up.
                    • Leaders tell stories about those who are around them. Don’t bring your story into the dynamic of the team.
                    • There is a correlation to how someone was parented to how they lead.
