Book HereWhat areas of business does hospitality coaching cover?
Hospitality coaching with James covers what we call The five pillars of business. This framework helps clients organise themselves in a way that ensures they have a balanced approach to improving their business.
Most clients begin coaching with James with a couple of areas they are strong in but may have ignored the areas they don't understand or aren't interested in. This leads to underperformance and stress. 1-1 coaching with James will ensure clients excel in all of the five areas - then results follow.
