E177: The Power of Coachability with Jordan Montgomery

What does it mean to be coachable? To be coachable is to be fully self-aware, focusing on the future rather than the present, and focusing on relationships rather than the content. If you want to continue to grow, there has to be that element of coachability, or you just stop growing, and you end up settling for mediocrity.

In today’s conversation, performance coach and keynote speaker Jordan Montgomery highlights the difference between a coachable person and a teachable person. Jordan walks us through his journey of finding and living his purpose and that pivotal moment that pushed him to realign with his values.

Jordan Montgomery is the owner of Montgomery Companies. Jordan travels the country speaking and coaching executives at Fortune 500 companies, professional athletes, salespeople, and entrepreneurs.
