Even Tiger Woods Has A Coach!

3/9/09

Imagine what it must be like to be the best in the world and yet be honest enough to admit that you can still get better...that you don’t know it all...to understand that often we can’t see our own mistakes, and if we are not getting better at something, we are in fact getting worse...that we have to get better, at what we do, just to stand still.


Tiger Woods, has a near perfect golf swing, and yet he still has a coach to help him improve it.

So, as a BNI member how can we improve our performance as a member, and the amount of business we receive from our chapter?

Well, like Tiger Woods we can be coached. And, rather than spend thousands of dollars as Tiger does, we can attend the BNI workshops for free (well okay, we have to pay for a coffee and a sandwich). There is a BNI workshop covering every part of what it takes to become a winning member and, what’s more, a success outside of BNI.

And, it’s the benefits that these workshops provide outside of BNI which I believe is their real value. Doing everything better in your relationships with your fellow BNI members is one thing, but the way that you handle yourself with business contacts, and even personal relations, can be something far more valuable.

Just think about two of the BNI workshops: Networking Skills and Presentation Skills. How much more successful do you think your business would be, if you were more confident when speaking to your clients, suppliers, your bank manager (when asking for a loan), or possible new contacts?

So, if you would like to give the very best you can, and gain the best from your fellow members in return, why not sign up for a workshop today and gain from coaching just like Tiger Woods does.
