Communities and community leaders have
huge learning opportunities, as the values of community members can be hugely different.
Depression is common in communities with little sense of common purpose or
mutual commitment, while communities with shared values usually attract healthy people.
Do you want to contribute to your community?
Do you want to offer a service that can accelerate personal and community development? Do you want to make a difference in people's lives?
Unhealthy
behavior is both normal and expected in dysfunctional communities!
The World is Changing
Does your community try to maintain older systems or does it adapt to change?
Does your community enjoy a vibrant or stagnant economy? Do enthusiastic people enjoy
happy families and meaningful work? Or does your community suffer:
- Social problems?
- Apathy and stagnation?
- Depression and unemployment?
- Missed opportunities from lack of life skills and
low self-respect?
Community leadership entails complex, cooperative learned
behavior. And in a rapidly changing world, the consequences of delay or error can be
severe. Community coaching is a needed set of skills.
Consider offering your community a systemic coaching service,
through which you can make a real difference, a positive contribution and an
income. You can do a quick feasibility study at little cost. We can help you
with coach training and
mentor coaching.
Consider founding programs that
offer behavioral, skill development, transitioning and skill generalization in
real life environments for people. You can offer structure, support and
strategies for relationship and daily tasks. You can coach social interactions
while cultivating leaders and nurturing community relationships.
Consider offering community leadership, and offer people the
skills they need to be confident leader s and organizers; such as communication,
organization, teamwork and leadership skills.

Expenses and Rewards
Your expenses, if you start from your own home, can be
minimal. A quiet room, appropriately decorated with comfortable chairs is
enough. Later, as you build your business, you may prefer an office downtown.
You will also need basic promotional aids such as business cards, a website and office
stationary.
If you want coaching to become a part-time career, you can
provide an evening or weekend service, or incorporate coaching into your
regular employment. If you want coaching to become a full-time career, you
can start small and build your business until your income justifies becoming
fully self-employed.
These questions can indicate the potential success of a
coaching business in your area. Consider how many people you would like to
coach and for what rate. For example, if you provide coaching for 30 clients
for two hours each month for $100 per hour, your gross monthly income would
be around $6000.
Community Recognition
Do you want to fulfill a useful and positive role in your community? Coaching is an
enjoyable
career as well as a business you can take pride in. Consider how your clients will feel
as they better support their families, enjoy the benefits of emerging job opportunities
and to work at meaningful, well paying jobs.
