CEO Coaches: What do they do, how do they work with CEOs, and why might you consider hiring one?

In this episode I interview Warren Coughlin, who has been a Coach to SMB CEOs for upwards of two decades, helping them achieve everything from hugely successful exits, to 7-figure salaries, to significantly reduced day-to-day operational roles, and countless other outcomes.

Warren is the creator of The Business That Matters Playbook, a tool that streamlines and automates the strategic planning process for CEOs and Entrepreneurs. His coaching practice focuses not only on the business itself, but also on the entrepreneur at a personal level, working with them to ensure that they craft meaningful values and live a lifestyle that is meaningful and fulfilling to them. 

In this episode we cover a wide array of topics, some of which include: What do CEO coaches actually do? What does a typical coaching engagement look like? When is an appropriate time to hire a coach, if you hire one at all? How much do coaches cost, and how should CEOs think about the ROI on that investment? How does one even go about looking for a coach? How much of the coaching process is focused on the business vs. on the entrepreneur themselves? What are some of the most common areas for improvement that you witness when first engaging with a new CEO client? When should you fire your CEO coach? And countless others. 

Please enjoy!
