Hiring a business coach can be a career-defining and life-changing move for entrepreneurs and executives. And the statistics speak for themselves. A survey published by the International Coach Federation (ICF) found that on average, organizations working with a business coach grow their net income by 46 percent. In addition to this, the research discovered 62.4% of executives and entrepreneurs set better goals, 57.1% lowered their anxiety, and 52.4% felt more confident.
Yet, the most interesting finding from this study is the number of people who describe this relationship as one of the most important in their life

We all know about the value of coaching in sports, but what about coaching in the workplace? Just like a coach can help an athlete achieve their potential, a workplace coach can guide employees to build skills, improve performance and meet their goals.
Coaches take a proactive approach to employee growth, giving confidence to those who need it and helping to pinpoint and resolve problem areas. It isn’t always easy, but research shows that coaching pays off: coaching and mentoring employees in the workplace can create a return on investment of 5.7 times the cost.
The main aim of workplace coaching is to promote two-way communication between an employee and their coach in order to identify areas for improvement, reinforce strengths, and further develop their performance. This is usually done by focusing on specific performance objectives, skills and goals.
It’s all about empowering employees to be the best performers that they can be.
The purpose of coaching can be summarized in the maxim: “Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime.” Effective coaching does not give employees the answers but rather supports them as they solve problems themselves.
Coaching is concerned with “how”: how to set and achieve goals, how to change approaches or attitudes, how to prepare for future roles. It is action-oriented and future-focused. A good coach draws out an employee’s strengths and helps them to leverage these strengths to increase effectiveness.
Deloitte recently partnered with the independent research firm Workplace Intelligence to survey 2,100 employees and C-level executives across four countries—the US, UK, Canada, and Australia—and found that nearly 70 percent of executives are seriously considering quitting their current positions for a job that better supports their well-being. What would be the impact to your organization if you had a mass exodus of your senior leaders?
Many talent development professionals have reworked their talent development programs to focus on employee well-being to combat burnout and boost retention. However, they may have overlooked one important tool that is already in their talent development toolbox: leadership coaching.
The coaching engagement—traditionally an intervention used to address performance gaps or develop a leader to achieve a higher level within an organization, especially at the senior-leader level—can easily be realigned to provide the necessary tools and focus to aid in burnout prevention, supporting well-being and positivity impact retention. While many organizations are focused on enhancing transactional elements of the employment relationship to improve retention, such as salary bumps or perks, a recent McKinsey study identified that what employees really prioritize in their decision to stay with their organizations are more relational in nature—being engaged, sensing they belong, and feeling valued.
The Coaching led me to achieve a promotion to Executive Director – Post Sale, that had been frozen for the past 15 years.
Starting a business is crazy difficult. The family always suffers. My coaching with PeopleFirst helped me raise funds at the right stages and more importantly made me see I didn’t have to choose between family and business
My 360 surveys underwent a total change after the coaching. My team respects me but I have also been able to engage better with all my stakeholders
The 8 months I spent being coached helped me transform my Business and my Life. The coach helped me revisit my business model and helped me with getting the right investors. Most importantly, I learnt from him how to live a more balanced life
When my CEO categorically told me I needed to develop certain leadership capabilities if I was to ever get the top role in my company, I felt it was a lost cause. With People First's coaching, I can’t believe how easy it is to lead people
I had been struggling with my leadership style for years. My team didn’t like me and my Manager had put me on a short leash cautioning me that I could either change or move into an Individual contributor role. It took 4 months of coaching to transform my life as a leader.
For years, I would leave office with the feeling that I hadn’t been able to complete a lot of my work. Jag’s Magic Quadrant principle and coaching helped me identify certain behaviour patterns. Now I actually have time to work on higher value stories than struggling to complete basic work
I moved from London to a large firm in Dubai. It was a promotion for me and I had to suddenly contend with doing media interviews, something I had never been exposed to. The coach’s media coaching tips greatly helped me manage crisis situations and handle challenging media interactions
I was able to move to Product Management from the Sales function within six months of my coaching. That was something I had been trying to do for years but hadn’t succeeded at on my own
Jag is so amazing at how he gets you to go past your limiting beliefs. I can’t believe how easy he has made it for me to talk to large audiences and media people
I have been the top performing Business manager for the past 18 months now. The Business coaching and Behavioural Selling principles I learnt are astounding and the results so tangible
I had got transferred to India as a Business Head and was struggling not to make mistakes that could adversely impact my team and other colleagues. The six culture coaching sessions I had with People First taught me more than I would have learnt from days of cultural sensitization training and reading on Google
Moving from Chicago to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, I made two terrible errors within the first week of joining office. The Bank I was employed with helped me reach out to Jag as my Culture coach. It’s a lot easier now. I feel accepted as an Expat, and I am able to get things done without ruffling feathers
I have gained an extra 10 hours a week. It gives me so much more time with myself and with the people that matter. Not to forget the time I get for ‘Creative silence’ that Jag keeps talking about
After years of self-loathing and self-doubt, I have been able to start liking myself as a person. And it has made such a big difference to how people respond to me. This coaching didn’t change my life. It saved my life!

had the privilege of going through my executive coaching by Jagmohan. Jagmohan excels in providing excellent perspectives and solutions for career minded individuals through his deep and insightful leadership coaching. He demonstrates mastery in his craft by carefully evaluating a leaders own and their colleagues' perceived identity using feedback tools and then using them to chart a trend for improvement. During feedback, he allows individuals to participate in their development plan. As a professional, Jagmohan is meticulous and thought through in his approach. I am extremely proud of my professional association with him.
