How to Deliver Results Without Positional Authority as a Consultant or Coach, with Sara Guttman (Ep178)
How do you deliver results as a consultant or coach when you're no longer the one in charge?
My client Sara Guttman is back on the show, and this time she's putting me on the hot seat with the question that stumped me: How do I actually deliver results when I'm not coming from a place of positional authority?
You'll discover why your methodology isn't where your value lies, the two traps that turn consultants and coaches into a pair of hands or a surrogate leader (and where to stand instead), why you need to know who you're transferring your knowledge and skills to before the work even starts, and why AI will never replace you with the clients who are meant for you.
If you're ready to stop doing the work for your clients and step into the strategic partner role you know you're meant for, this conversation is for you.
