Enjoyed reading this lens. I think I need an expert business coach because I'm in a rut and so is my business. I've read most of the books you recommended, and will take at Andrea Lee's latest.

Thank you for the suggestions and ideas. You've made me look at coach in an entirely new light.

Much success to you,
Judith
