What is coaching?
Coaching requires two things – a coach and a client. It’s
a personalized, one-on-one relationship that helps a donor travel
through a process of improving themselves and enhancing their
abilities. Coaching is the ability to utilize proven tools and
hands-on training to bring out the best a person has to offer
and overcome past or current challenges. Coaching requires committed
involvement from both the coach and client in order to obtain
the desired outcome, but the insight that is obtained through
this personal process can make a life-changing impact.
What is a giving coach?
A giving coach uses their experience to help individuals reach
goals they never dared dream before. Developing a personal giving
game plan is often helped by an outside facilitator who gives
new perspective and encouragement, and can help you continue
on the process. With all of the constraints affecting each of
us, an outsider can often help keep the fire lit for you to
keep developing yourself as an impact-donor. A coach is NOT
a therapist or counselor. While its important to understand
how you’ve arrived at this point in history, a coach is
focused on the future and developing proactive game plans. It
is the responsibility of the coach to bring up the unmentionables,
discuss the pros and cons of different situations or hold you
accountable for agreed-upon action steps, in order to bring
out the best you have to offer.
What areas does a giving coach
address?
Ultimately, a giving coach will address the areas you want and
need addressed. However, a giving coach can help you evaluate
the myriad of requests to ensure they fit your giving matrix.
Your personal giving coach can also assist the family in connecting
you to nonprofits that fit your profile and giving interests.
Many couples and families can benefit from an outside moderator
to assist in family or intergenerational challenges. They can
help you move from a reactive philosophy to a positive proactive
plan. A coach also has connections within the nonprofit community
to provide you insights and research to help you make better
giving decisions. Lastly, there are many times each of us could
use a cheerleader in our successes, not just in their giving,
but life in general, and a coach can be there to experience
these times with you.
How long does a coaching relationship
last?
We understand that time is the killer for you, so determining
the length of our engagement and how much time is provided monthly,
is really dependent upon needs of each individual. However,
we have found that a minimum of three months allows for us to
develop the openness of dialogue, address all of the areas you
want addressed, and not feel rushed through the overall process.
There are no long-term commitments that are required.
What is the cost of personalized
coaching services?
The cost of personalized coaching is varied, depending upon
the extent of time and energy you require. But the fees start
at $250 a month for two, forty-five minute telephone meetings
and proceed from there. Each of our services are individually
tailored to meet your needs and time demands.
How will the Journey to Significance™
process improve my giving?
This process is designed to help you begin the delicate process
of understanding and articulating why and how you make your
giving decisions. It is also a process that will help you begin
to communicate your passions, dreams and goals for the future
in both your philanthropy and other aspects of your life. By
proceeding through this process, you will be able to develop
a strategy for your philanthropy that unleashes the joy and
satisfaction for your life and impact on the world around you.
What is the cost of the Journey
to Significance™ process?
The cost for the very extensive personal giving assessment Journey to
Significance™ process is $250.00 for the 80+ page personalized
report. To purchase this document please contact our office.
How long has the company been coaching others?
Founded in 1994, the company has been providing personalized
coaching services to donors from moderate means to the billionaire
level. This unique service has evolved during the past seven
years and continues to improve each and every day through personal
interaction with its special clients. The Journey to Significance™

and working with donors one-on-one.
