Ted Ernst's Summary
You know how executives sometimes find that the business isn't growing as fast as they want it to and they end up spending more and more time at work?
What I do is coach executive teams on habits that both reliably grow and drastically reduce the amount of time required to manage the business.
My unique approach combines the powerful Gazelles growth tools with my extensive experience facilitating enthusiastic alignment. My specialty is coaching family-owned and community-oriented businesses, focusing on the connections between thriving companies, communities, and families.
I have been facilitating groups for more than 20 years. A certified Gazelles International Coach, my holistic approach supports my commitment and practice: You can have it all: growing company, thriving family, and connected, healthy community.
