The best athletes have coaches. As a CEO, I work with an executive coach from Berman Leadership to help me stay focused, help my team stay focused, help me communicate better, and help my team communicate better. I appreciate being able to bounce ideas off of them when I’m seeing issues from personnel to strategy. Their psychology based approach combined with business experience helps me navigate new problems and gives me great guidance for how to get from point A to point B when you don’t have a map.
