Business Performance Coach 🎯🚀⛳️ - aka team performance boost + business valuation + time off!

• Nov 2019 - Present

For many entrepreneurs, business owners, and top managers out there, performance is the biggest challenge ever. Teams aren’t performing as planned, productivity drops, motivation & creativity vanish, tensions accumulate and profitability takes a hit. Worse! Growth opportunities are limited🚀and there is very little time to spend off work⛳️That’s frustrating because work should support your lifestyle, not the other way around. But why is that happening so often? Typically, the issue is not expertise otherwise leaders wouldn’t be leaders, right?No. the issue is that they put their attention, time & energy in the wrong place.Said differently? They keep “doing” & spend their time on routines that create no business value when they should be planning, building, organizing, and coaching their teams.That’s too bad because others do a pretty good job at building businesses that 1) work for them, 2) produce income & valuation when they sleep, and 3) make time for themselves along the way!💥Why?Because they’ve realized that their business (or business unit) is only worth something if- it becomes a system with a robust business model- it is backed by a reliable & empowered team- it ultimately works FOR THEM, and WITHOUT THEM.🎯🚀⛳️That’s why we do what we do: support, challenge, and coach entrepreneurs, business owners & top managers looking to turn their business (unit) & team into impactful & revenue-making systems that work for them and without them.How do we do that?🤔By giving them access to the Impactified performance coaching method & tools.A reliable coaching method that allows committed leaders to rapidly save up to two days each week, while remodeling their business operations, empowering the team, turning the managers into powerhouses, & making the organization work for them, without them. You only get what YOU tolerate, so what are you waiting for? Show less

Aha! Moments Maker 💭💬💡🎊 aka. Brainstorming Workshop Facilitator (Team Empowerment Guaranteed!)

• Nov 2019 - Present

Do you need to formulate a vision, identify an ideal client, define a strategy, solve a problem or create a process? Coming up with new and creative ideas is always a challenge.The stake is big, though, because industry leadership takes tons of "out of your own box" thinking. Yet, how to innovate when you're not sure where to start? In our experience, the lack of innovation in a business comes from two triggering factors.1) Mindset - because many leaders are more comfortable with status quo than with change.2) Method - because generating provoking ideas is impossible when you are so much INTO the business that you can't think different.That’s too bad because your competitors probably do a pretty good job at reshuffling the cards every now and then AND at using their conclusions to stand out from the crowd!Why? Because they’ve realized that their only chance to be / appear different is toadopt an open & pro-innovation mindsettrust that their team can get together & come up with the only solutions that make senserely on sharp brainstorming facilitation methods that others don't leverageThat’s why at Impactified, we routinely organize internal workshops, as external facilitators. The goal is simple: make teams come up with unforeseen ideas and solutions nobody saw coming but which create highly impactful 'Aha! moments' people remember.Why? Because they are given a chance to participate and take the lead.How do we do that?🤔By using the Impactified 'Aha! Moments' method.Inspired by proven design thinking techniques and seasoned with our business strategy touch, it makes teams come up with solutions in no time. Say…to define a vision people will followto build a message people will listento identify your ideal client & build an offeringto set a strategy in generalto build a processIn the end, daring to innovate is the starting point, but will you?Let's talk? 👉https://impactified.com/antoine-martin💭🎯🚀 Show less
