Business Coaching in Dayton, Ohio by Essex and Associates

Our firm does business coaching and also contracts with several other skilled business coaches to help individuals achieve desired results.

An effective business coach is one that is not only able to facilitate a discussion between the coach, sometimes referred to as the mentor and the one being coached
(mentee), they are able to bring their own life experiences to the table.

A business coach without the personal knowledge of what the person is going through is greatly limited in the effectiveness they can bring.

Our owner, Dr. Wayne Essex Ph.D. not only is a teacher in various arenas but has been in the business workplace for over 40 years.

Much of his knowledge is based off of actual workplace experiences and application.

Being a college professor has also allowed him to gain a body of knowledge most do hot have. He combines much experience with much education to bring about much desired results.

A good coach will be effective at asking the right questions but more importantly he will hold the one be coaching accountable to achieve the agreed upon goals.

Dr. Essex not only facilitates but he is a skills-based coach.

It is one thing to talk about what a person needs to do but it is a whole another level to be able to actively demonstrate, through personal experience, what needs to be done.

His coaching includes executive coaching, life coaching, emotional intelligence coaching and wealth coaching.

Wayne brings much experience to play as he has been an active coach for 20 years.

As a coach, he helps to identify the skills and capabilities that are within the person, and enabling them to use them to the best of their ability.

He will also manage them in that he will make sure they do what they know to do
and to train them to do things that currently do not know how to perform.

Our coaching philosophy is holistic in that we incorporate all aspect of life into the process.

Our coaches are not therapists.

We combine Life Coaching with Business Coaching to provides positive support,
feedback and advice to an individuals to improve their personal effectiveness in the business setting.

Business coaching includes executive coaching, corporate coaching and leadership coaching.

As executive coaches we work our clients towards specific professional goals.

These include career transition, interpersonal and professional communication, performance management, organizational effectiveness, managing career and personal changes, developing executive presence, enhancing strategic thinking, dealing effectively with conflict, and building an effective team within an
organization.

We also help with career coaching which focuses on work and career or issues around careers. It is similar in nature to career counseling and traditional counseling.

A significant focus of our firm is financial coaching which is a form of coaching that focuses on helping clients attain their financial goals.

At its most basic, financial coaching is a one-on-one relationship in which the coach provides encouragement and holds the client accountable to financial goals.

Of course our firm offers the tools of financial planning as well as tax minimization strategies to maximize the effective ness of this approach.

Financial coaching is rooted in the fact that although many people have financial goal and aspirations, they often struggle to attain them.

Recognizing the array of challenges inherent in behavior change, including all too human tendencies to procrastinate and overemphasize short-term gains over long-term wellbeing, financial coaches monitor clients’ progress over time.

This monitoring function holds clients accountable and will boost clients’ self-control and willpower

Dr. Essex has much experience in the area of conflict coaching.

Conflict coaching is appropriate on many different levels and may be used in an organizational context or in matrimonial and other relationship matters.

Like many other techniques of this nature, it is premised on the view that conflict provides an opportunity to improve relationships, to create mutually satisfactory solutions and attain other positive outcomes when differences arise between and among people.

Our coaching comes from a Christian perspective.

A Christian coach is not a pastor or counselor, (although they may also be credentialed in those disciplines), but rather someone who has been
professionally trained to address specific coaching goals from a distinctively Christian or biblical perspective.
