What does it mean to coach others? Are you better at giving advice or asking questions? After more than 25 years in supervision, management, and leadership, Ken Jacobs founded Jacobs Communications Consulting in 2007.

Tune in as Ken shares how he got started as an executive coach, how to know when you’re ready for a little help, and the common qualities he sees in the leaders who truly empower their teams. In This Episode
Quotes in This Episode “When I coach, I don’t give advice. I don’t share my expertise... It’s really about believing in the client’s wisdom, it’s about empowering clients to get in touch with that wisdom… It’s much more about asking questions than giving answers.” —Ken Jacobs “When you delay a decision, that’s a decision, too! And it’s probably not the right one for themselves or their organization. Making a decision, even the ‘wrong’ decision, is actually better than no decision.” —Ken Jacobs “You have an opportunity to build trust in someone who works for you or a peer. You have an opportunity to build that relationship.” —Ken Jacobs “People don’t follow leaders because they have the big, fancy title or the big, fancy office. They follow people they trust. They follow people who inspire them. They follow confidence and bravery.” —Ken Jacobs “Your success is not about your success. Your success is about helping your team—empowering your team—to achieve their greatest success.” —Ken Jacobs Resources Jacobs Communications Consulting Coming Soon: Jacobs Consulting and Executive Coaching |
