When Patti Mara graduated from university in the recession of 1989, she couldn’t get a job—so she made one up instead. In this episode, Patti shares how she’s achieved entrepreneurial success, the exciting new project she’s launching to support local businesses, and what she’s learned as a long-time coach in The Strategic Coach® Program.

Here’s some of what you’ll learn in this episode:

  • The invaluable resource that Patti turned to when she realized she didn’t know how to build a business.
  • Some of the most helpful tools Patti learned in her first year at Strategic Coach®.
  • The difference between tasks and results.
  • The value in separating the fault from the problem.
  • “magic” that happens in every Strategic Coach workshop.

Show Notes:

  • Entrepreneurship often emerges out of necessity, but being good at making up a job for yourself doesn’t mean you know how to build a business.
  • Strategic Coach concepts can dramatically shift an entrepreneur's mindset and ability to build a thriving organization.
  • Every coach at Strategic Coach is also a Program member who uses Coach tools and concepts in their own business.
  • What you sell is actually the vehicle for how you create value.
  • Your business is the value you create to the people you want to work with.
  • Everyone wants to feel like they’re winning.
  • When team members feel like their roles serve a greater purpose, the whole company culture shifts.
  • And once you recognize team members as experts in their roles, you can encourage their innovation and sense of ownership.
  • When you empower team members to solve problems rather than to focus on who was at fault, customer interactions get much better.
  • Awareness and mindset are more impactful than specific skills when training team members.
