“ActionCOACH is very valuable for any business. Get a coach!” – Jurgens Uys & Hanno Lategan
Getting an ActionCOACH
Jurgens and Hanno started coaching with ActionCOACH Lindie Malan in March 2021. They were at a point in their business where growth was happening fast and had been contemplating various scenarios but felt isolated and like they didn’t have anyone they could share some ideas and formulate a strategic plan with specific goals going forward.
For the first time since being in business, 6+ years (at the time), the two of them talked about a shared vision for Versus, sharing personal values with one another, did a SWOT analysis and decided on a couple of short term goals e.g. define the purpose statement for versus: To become the most loved performance brand in the world
They appointed an operational manager with great skills. This meant that both owners could delegate key tasks to this person which resulted in them both having more available time and energy to focus on building Versus. They have learnt many new important skills like how to hold staff accountable. They now know the importance of building a winning team with A-Class players.
