Fractional-C Implementer
For a growing organization there is often a challenge balancing expenditures with the ability to take the business to the next level. Organizations often lose the competitive edge differentiating their uniqueness from their competition when they don't have a clear plan for change.
It is essential during the start-up to existance stages to develop strategic plans to manage the growth curve efficiently and effectively. At The Dragon Company, we offer a unique experience bringing together the experience of an Executive Coach, a Consulting Practice, and a Fractional C-Suite Implementor to help elevate your business. We tailor our services independently or in a holistic way depending on our clients needs.
Key issues and strategic plans for the business will be identified and developed to be deployed at key points resulting in the overall growth for the organization. Such an approach shouldn't happen in a silo. Having a resource with the knowledge, skills and experience of a seasoned CEO will ensure an inclusive process while creating a sustainable outcome when change occurs while managing costs.
The Dragon Company provides specialized expertise and support in various fields such as coaching, consulting, operations, planning, IT, and marketing to other businesses and organizations. The goal is to offer tailored solutions to help our clients improve performance, solve complex problems, and achieve their strategic goals. Our services often involve a combination of coaching, advice, implementation, and ongoing support.
The Dragon Company does not provide routine operational services, such as administrative support or manual labor, as our focus is on delivering specialized expertise and strategic advice. With the exception of our Fractional-C services, our focus is primarily coaching and advisory rather than hands-on execution of day-to-day business functions.
Professional coaching is a collaborative and goal-oriented process where a trained coach partners with an individual or team to unlock their potential and maximize performance. It involves deep listening, powerful questioning, and tailored feedback to help clients gain clarity, set achievable goals, and develop strategies to overcome obstacles. The focus is on personal and professional growth, enhancing skills, and fostering self-awareness to achieve desired outcomes.
Individuals and organizations find value in professional coaching because it provides personalized guidance and support to help them achieve specific goals, overcome challenges, and enhance their skills. It offers a structured approach to personal and professional development, leading to greater clarity, improved performance, and increased self-awareness.
Coaches do not offer therapy or address deep psychological issues, instead the goal is to focus on future goals and development. Additionally, coaches do not make decisions for our clients in this role, but rather empower them to make their own informed choices.
