You say you are transformational but are you really?

by | May 12, 2020 | Coaches Corner, Coaching, transformation

Many people say they are a transformational speaker, a transformation trainer, or a transformational coach but how do you know that you are? What are you basing your use of this powerful word on? Romans 12:2 King James Version (KJV) tells us, “2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.”

“To promise your audience that they will be transformed by the renewing of their mind by you is a huge promise.”

If I am speaking to you, and in your heart of hearts, you know this is exactly what you want to deliver to your clients and audiences, it can happen. Just because you say it’s so, however, doesn’t make it so and saying the word doesn’t make it true. It is not wishful thinking or a smart copy point in my work. It is something that can be learned.

I have more than 25+ years as an international transformational workshop designer, leadership developer, trainer of trainers, coach, and speaker. Answer Yes or No in this “The How Do I Know If I Am Really A Transformational Professional Quiz”:

  • I know how to learn where they are and where they want to be…the vision that describes their better future.
  • I can properly understand their underlying problems or causes of organizational or personal pain that need to be addressed.
  • I support their transformation with a proven road map and system.
  • I am experienced in creating safe mindset shifts.
  • I am able to enroll my clients in taking forwarding risky actions towards what matters to them.
  • I am able to intervene and coach them through their limiting beliefs.
  • I walk my talk and practice what I preach in my own life.
  • I have emotional intelligence
  • I am a lifelong learner.

This is my shortlist. If you would like to learn more, please contact me for a 30 Minute Strategy Session. I am dedicated to changing lives and businesses for the better. We need more transformational professionals.
