BUSINESS COACHING FORM

BACKGROUND: As your business coach, it’s helpful for me to understand how to view your business and your involvement in it. These questions are to stimulate your thinking and make our work together move productive. Due to the personal affects and vice versa, there is a page of personal focused pondering questions. It’s helpful to answer each question as clearly and thoughtfully as possible, although a short answer –a couple of words or sentences –is usually enough.
