Are You Coachable Take The Test And Find Out

Developing the Next Generation of Rainmakers Are You Coachable? Take the Test and Find Out I’ve been having some “issues” with my golf game. A friend recommended I visit Golf Tec. I went to the one in Plano, Texas and had my “Swing evaluation.” During the hour, the golf professional asked me to tell him my goal. (For those of you I coach does that sound familiar?) I told him I wanted to reduce my handicap from a 19 to a 12. That’s pretty ambitious, since I never played to a 12 even when I was in top physical condition prior to….surgeries. Having watched myself on video in the first session, I can see why I have a 19 handicap. Can I get to a 12? It will depend on whether I am coachable and willing to make the effort between coaching sessions. (For those of you I coach, does that also sound familiar?) Since I began coaching lawyers in 2005 I have found that some lawyers really put a lot into the coaching program and they get a lot out of it. One lawyer I coached in 2006-07 when he was an associate sent me an email in January, announcing he had a record year in 2015, originating over $3 million in business. I knew when I coached him, he would be a rainmaker and now he certainly is. Over time, I have developed Coachability Factors. I urge you to take the test and see if you are coachable.   I practiced law for 37 years developing a national construction law practice representing some of the top highway and transportation construction contractors in the US.
