Ideal Candidate

- Strong communication, people and leadership skills, a positive outlook and a good presence.
- Confident, genuine, authentic relationship builders who have a trusted network of other businesspeople who respect them.
- Ambitious, savvy, growth-oriented strategic thinkers.
- Team Builders with the ability to attract great people to work for/with them. (If they want the “Firm” franchise).
- Presentation skills are a huge plus
- Passionate about the “business of business”. Their specific functional or industry experience is irrelevant. Our tools and systems will plug any gaps.
- Strong fit with the ActionCOACH culture
- Prior full P/L responsibility (or well on way if younger and upwardly mobile).
- Someone who is coachable, personal/professional development oriented and enjoys developing other people.
- Several Avatars that are especially a good fit
- 1. Corporate execs and refugees who want to leverage their background and experience to more than duplicate their corporate income, help others, do something they believe in and have complete control over their own destiny and their own calendar. Whether younger and still have some runway ahead of them or semi-retired and don’t yet want to hang up the cleats
- 2. Existing Business owners or Franchise owners who want to add another business to the portfolio. One that will directly improve any of their other business interests as well
- 3. Investors and Enterprise Builders who see the synergy and leverage there is from being in the Business Coaching space, being in the middle of “deal-flow” and want to master the Intellectual Property and target future acquisitions.
