Coach

Coach is something, or someone, who carries a valued person from where they are to where they want to be.
Over the years I have trainer many people in different qualifications. It is easy to train a person who wants to go on the journey, they add value to them self and to you as the proceed through the qualification.
John Maxwell says the education takes easy things and complicates them, while leadership takes complicated things and makes the easy to understand.
I have found over the years that when you value people (even those who do not value you or them self), you start them on a journey of learning (adding value). It is their choice if the want a long journey or short trip.
We see our training business (and now the John Maxwell Team coaching) as a bus. Many people will get on and off our bus. We will always add value and work on connecting with them to have a fruitful journey.
Every person who contacts us is a valued person. When the phone rings, I often think, "Hey, another valued person, contacting us." Regardless of what the call is about I then can enjoy communicating with that person. No phone call is an interruption, because how can it be an interruption, when a VALUABLE person is calling me.
