Client Success:

Working with Gerrie Dresser over the past year has provided me with the essential tools for defining and accomplishing my personal and career-related goals. Gerrie's attention to detail, genuine concern and motivational skills are positively contagious and have influenced my way of thinking and the manner in which I engage in 'every-day' situations. Moreover, her ability to accommodate a client's individual needs or concerns, speaks highly of her intrinsic qualities as a professional coach.

How "Turn-Around" Coaching Works

You and I form a partnership to discover your unique talents, focus on maximizing your strengths, and build a focused, strategic action plan so you take the most direct path to achieve your goals according to YOUR agenda!

Through "turn-around coaching", you...

• Quickly get to the heart of the matter.
• Laser focus your vision, so that you are naturally propelled forward.
• Get unstuck for effortless success and free up your energy.
• Break-through limiting beliefs that block you from attracting what you want in your life.
• Powerfully connect with your inner passion so that even your daily activities take on a larger meaning.
• Discover the best route to reach your goals.
• Reclaim your inner passion.
• Succeed in a way that brings out your uniqueness and innate strengths.

TURN-AROUND COACHING

"Far more than a typical change, Turn-Around Coaching is all encompassing for individuals and organizations — it is transforming on all levels, can eliminate your biggest challenges, frees habitual patterns that have kept you stuck for years, and connects you to your core energy — so that your professional and personal life is more rewarding and energizing! Most people say that they never knew it could be so much fun to transform their lives." — Deb Giffen, Master Certified Coach

ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS :

• The three essential elements of a Turn-Around include a clear picture or description of what you truly want — your VISION.
• You also need an intense emotional CONNECTION that includes a passion or an enthusiasm and enjoyment, a trust or commitment to the belief that the new life is possible and achievable, and connection with a soulful and energizing community.
• The third element is consistent, daily actions that move you closer to what you want — ACTION.

The Turn-Around Process: It's often difficult to see patterns that block your success. Our coaching partnership is designed for you to get a crystal clear vision of these patterns, not complexity and confusion. We create a collaborative, strategic partnership to reach your "turn-around" goal.

We sort through the clutter to find the best route, play out alternative scenarios, and evaluate accurately the potential obstacles. This forces you to filter and instinctively evaluate whether or not a particular action will help you move toward your goal with focus and passion. Those that don't are ignored.

You then make selections that are "on target" until you arrive at the chosen path - YOUR STRATEGY!

"Where are you headed?" — I ask this question during every coaching session to set a clear destination and define your goals. These goals then serve as your compass, helping you determine priorities and make the necessary corrections to get back on course.

This forces you to be efficient. When combined with patience and gratitude for the present, you see how delays, obstacles, and even tangents are puzzle pieces to your strategic plan!

When you start to wander down other avenues, I bring you back to your main road. I remind you that if something is not helping you move toward your destination, then it is most likely taking you off course. I keep you on point with your goals, dreams, and ambitions!

Success Associates integrates professional excellence strategies with the "Turn-Around Coaching Model" so you effectively achieve your personal and professional goals with FOCUS — VITALITY — PASSION!
