For over 20 years Greg Clowminzer has been practicing coaching and considers himself to be one of the pioneers in this area. When he started there was no certification in the industry.
He studied at Coach University; they offered the first Coaching certification training program. It was founded by a man considered to be the grandfather of Life Coaching today, Thomas Leonard, who’s now passed away. Thomas had information that was leading the way in the field.
In 1993, Greg ended up studying with one of Thomas’s students, who mentored him when he was getting into coaching. His experience has stood the test of time, and his coaching has been his sole source of income. Greg’s background allows him to have conversations on an array of topics, he can converse on businesses, profitability, marketing all the way to the other end of the big life questions, who am I, why am I here, what’s my purpose, etc. Read more

As a businesses coach one of the things we see with business owners, entrepreneurs and professional’s is that when you become more successful the complexity of running a business seems to multiply for many business owners.
You may find yourself wearing so many different hats that you get lost in terms of what to focus on and what truly matters.
During these times of increased complexities business owners may find themselves at their wits end with more stress, less freedom and no joy. Read more
The dynamic of coaching may be the next generation of management, and it requires time, dedication and coaching for managers to make this personal and professional shift. As a manager that becomes more of a coach to the staff by teaching everyone in your organization the four-step coaching process and introducing the notions of distinctions, personal foundation, dedication, standing up for what you believe or want, keeping your agreements, evoking, requesting, self-management, excellence and mission, among others. A growing number of managers within Fortune 500 firms are hiring their own coaches to help them grow because they aren’t able to get the quality or confidentiality they need from in-house “corporate coaches”.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Japanese word “kaizen” simply means “good change”, with no inherent meaning of either “continuous” or “philosophy” in Japanese dictionaries or in everyday use. The word refers to any improvement, one-time or continuous, large or small, in the same sense as the mundane English word “improvement”. However, given the common practice in Japan of labeling industrial or business improvement techniques with the word “kaizen” (for lack of a specific Japanese word meaning “continuous improvement” or “philosophy of improvement”), especially in the case of oft-emulated practices spearheaded by Toyota, the word Kaizen in English is typically applied to measures for implementing continuous improvement, or even taken to mean a “Japanese philosophy” thereof. The discussion below focuses on such interpretations of the word, as frequently used in the context of modern management discussions.
Priority management and getting things done is about scheduling those things that are truly important. If it’s going to get done, it’s got to be scheduled.
In coaching there is a saying “the client has all the answers” which I say is true. So if the client has all the answers why in the world would anyone investment good money in hiring a coach. I say a good coach is asking a kind of question that allows the client to open up to a new kind of thinking, in new ways, to handle a new set of issues and concerns, as a result of his/her evolutionary process. I see that most people are trying to solve today’s issues with yesterdays thinking, and as a result people are feeling stuck and confused as to why there old ways of thinking and being aren’t working.
A big part of the life coaching process starts with an assessment of 8-key areas of your life. And in the following video I explain how the wheel of life coaching tool, helps you assess where you are and where you may want to focus your attention when working with a life coach.
The coaching process invites you to enter into several conversation about what is possible for you in your life. I also talk about the life coaches role and a specific coaching model for bringing out the clients very best.
Are you curious about what is possible for you?
