WHAT IS BUSINESS COACHING?
P4 business coaching is not for the faint of heart. We work with business leaders who are committed to building thriving, growing businesses, and for whom “failure is not an option”.
We provide the octane for leaders to drive the highest level of success possible for their business. Using P4’s proprietary “Growth Engine Indicator” (GEI) assessment, P4 coaches have a unique ability to evaluate the business’s business growth system, pinpointing gaps, identifying areas needing fortification, and emphasizing strengths that can be leveraged.
HOW CAN BUSINESS COACHING BENEFIT MY ORGANIZATION?
P4 Breakthrough Coaching guarantees that the outside perspective, expertise, and experience we provide WILL generate a breakthrough in your leadership and in your business. Business coaching will benefit your business when you want to …
- Make sure your Business Engine is running optimally.
- Jumpstart a stalled business, if your business is not getting the traction you want/need.
- Ensure you have the organizational capacity to support hyper-growth.
- Fortify your leadership team.
HOW DOES BUSINESS COACHING WORK?
We look at businesses engine as needing the same care and attention as a car engine. Working with a business coach is like going to a master mechanic to check that you are operating on all cylinders.
- Step 1. P4 business coaching always starts with our GEI Assessment (Growth Engine Indicator).
- Step 2. Clarification of goals and priorities.
- Step 3. Identification of the issues facing the business (SWOT analysis).
- Step 4. Action Planning.
- Step 5. On-going support (tailored and specific to your goals and objectives).

- Culture
- Strategic Vision
- Talent
- Products & Services
- Sales & Marketing
- Finance
- Customer Horsepower
- Growth Relationships
- Leadership
- Execution Excellence
WHAT RESULTS HAVE OTHER BUSINESS OWNERS SEEN?
- A boutique construction company owner completely revamped his business. He got clarity that his business model had limited upside and margins, so he adjusted his business model to diversify into more lucrative, less capital intensive alternatives. With guidance from a P4 consultant, he revamped his entire organization to support new strategic direction.
- A North Carolina manufacturing company, using the GEI, discovered underlying culture problems within the organization. Digging deeper, we discovered a host of issues simmering below the surface that had been left unchecked, issues negatively affecting company culture and output. Once identified and corrected, morale lifted, output increased and substantive plans were put in place to grow the business. The CEO had been unaware, however, once he had the information he took active steps to remedy the problem. New markets have been opened while significantly driving top and bottom revenue.
- A successful serial entrepreneur gained clarity on his priorities, and how he wanted to further evolve to gain more satisfaction.
- A company President learned to engage his employees differently and more effectively, resulting in greater commitment and motivation throughout his organization.
