Dr. George Watts Wants You to Become Your Own Business Coach

Dr. George WattsSome of the best education I got from listening to the radio when I was still living in Chicago was catching Dr. George Watts on his "Business Doctor" and "Seeds for Success" programs on WCPT AM.  In fact, his Business Doctor program interviewed our former Executive Director Mary C. Clark back in 2006.

In February, Watts – who has been a CEO and has also assessed over 5,000 CEOs and other C-level execs in his long career as a management consultant – released his third book.  Its title, Becoming your Own Business Coach, carries the promise of helping business leaders who are serious about creating a more productive workplace culture of high employee engagement save potentially thousands of dollars in outside coaching fees by learning the skills they need to do it from the inside, with their own knowledge.

Here’s a video Watts posted on his website last month with nuggets from his book – five core principles to help you become a mature and wise leader:

I think there’s good food for thought here in creating the best leadership approach so that the people practices that evolve from that are set up to be successful.  (I define success here to mean, good for the business as they help employees.)

Watts’ latest post on his site/blog is the first of five parts on how to improve your decision making.  Click here to subscribe to his blog feed so you’ll receive parts 2-5 as soon as they’re posted.
