Mentoring Program
Are you:
Running
an organization or department, yet feeling frustrated
because you can't seem to produce the great results you
want?
An
employee in the trenches trying hard to improve the
morale and conditions around you, even though you're not
the boss?
An
outside consultant or contractor using trial and error
to figure out how to better influence your colleagues
and projects?
An entrepreneur seeking
new ways to boost your business performance to achieve
the success you deserve?
I understand your concerns. I know
firsthand how difficult it can be to create the conditions
for success. Whether you run a big ship, a small yacht, or
are rowing your own boat to serve your clients or employer,
strategizing the best way to be effective can be tricky!
It usually takes a lot of time, energy,
and research to identify the best course
of action. Then it takes moretime,
more energy, and more
focus to sift through the various options. Finally, it takes
even more effort to assess and implement the
very best ideas. Not to mention the time it takes to follow
through to reach a successful outcome!
I
Know You Already Have Too Many Other Demands on Your Plate!
And boosting or fine-tuning business results
may not be high on your list. In fact, it might be way down
toward the bottom. Not because it isn't important. But because
that's all the time, energy, and focus you have, after juggling
all of your roles and responsibilities. (And who isn't
saturated with roles and responsibilities these days?)
Yet, you realize something has to be done.
And somebody has to do it.You've decided that
somebody isyou. I want you to know
that I'm here to help you. Why not leverage
my time, energy, and hard-won knowledge, and
learn from my past mistakes? Imagine the sense of
satisfaction and relief you'll feel when you finally
receive the encouragement, guidance, and support you deserve
which I can give you!
Here's What You'll
Get with Your Customized Mentoring Program:
One-on-one
assistance
Convenient meetings by phone (or in person if you live on the Central Coast of California)
Guidance on creating a solid,
doable plan of action
Coaching on business-boosting
tools, as applicable
Step-by-step help with mastering
your business performance challenges
We'll practice applying
the very same success-building techniques that have become
such valuable staples of my professional repertoire. I'll
share my insider secrets, and most importantly,
the approaches that tend to work best and why
and those that do not. These insights alone can save you as
much as the cost of each session, if not more. Furthermore,
you'll be in charge of
deciding what success means, and how we should
measure it.
So,
What Is Your Peace of Mind Worth?
What value would you place on having
a mentor and guide supporting you behind the scenes, encouraging
you through challenging problems, and helping you strategize
solutions?
I'm not sure exactly what will inspire you
the most about having your own private business performance
specialist working with you, on your own terms, in your own
corner. But I can predict that you'll feel a
huge weight lifted off of your shoulders when you make the
decision to start this program today!
I have two affordable mentoring
options to choose from, if you qualify. I also
offer consulting services. We can work at whatever pace suits
you, but you'll need to have these characteristics:
Flexibility
Open-mindedness
A commitment to your own
success
A desire to complete a free
preliminary interview (after you submit the application
at the bottom of this page)
Willingness to move forward
with your plan of action
NOTE:
These programs are only for the highly motivated. Your
best interests are at the heart of each session. I want you
to be able to concentrate on getting a step-by-step plan of
action in place. But you'll need to be prepared to roll up
your sleeves.
I take clients on a
first-come, first-served basis, after assessing whether
we would be a good match for working together. But because
I only take 5 clients at a time, I cannot guarantee
I'll be able to work with you right away. I therefore encourage
you to complete the application form below as soon as possible
to make sure you'll have the best chance of receiving
help when you need it the most.

Adele, your time, effort, knowledge, and support are much appreciated.
Thank you so much for your help and guidance. I came away from our meeting much more equipped with the tools to move forward, leading to increased sales and a map to my position with the company.
Lily Scherman Public Relations/Account Representative, TekTegrity.com
Adele, last week’s session was simply amazing.
James and I went to the beach on Saturday with a notebook to just sit and watch the waves and process everything that came up during the session, as well as what followed during the week. Incredible revelations.
