Look for understanding before prescription
Ask how the coach will learn about your business, ownership structure and goals. A useful proposal should reflect that context.
Ask how strategy becomes action
Explore the planning process, ownership of priorities and the review rhythm. Understand what happens between the initial planning session and the next quarterly review.
Include your leadership development
The owner’s decisions and behaviour affect execution. Ask how coaching will support your development alongside business performance.
Clarify the arrangements
Understand the monthly fee, participants, session cadence, between-session support and notice period. Establish which additional work is separately scoped.
Agree what progress means
Choose useful outcomes and measures together. A clear baseline and regular reviews provide a stronger basis for assessing value than broad promises.
