The ROI of solving the real problem
A high-performing executive asked about the ROI of our coaching engagement.
He was rightly focused on the business impact.
But his team was starting to notice he was hesitant on big decisions.
And a major strategic partnership opportunity had stalled for weeks.
Six months later, he told me the biggest breakthrough of our entire engagement came from a session where we didn't mention his P&L, his team's KPIs, or his next area of impact once.
We focused entirely on a recurring, high-stress conflict he was having in his personal life that was consuming his mental energy.
This was a massive, hidden tax on his ability to think clearly and strategically about his most important work.
He learned a new way to approach it, to communicate more effectively, and to separate its emotional charge from his workday.
The result?
He said his mind was finally "quiet enough to see the opportunity” he had been staring at for months.
He went on to close the biggest partnership of his career the following month.
Unblocking the stalled initiative and creating huge value for the organization.
We like to think that business ROI comes from better strategies and processes.
But often, the highest return comes from a counterintuitive investment:
Creating the space for a leader to solve the one human problem that is holding their professional genius hostage.
The ROI of great coaching is rarely a straight line from A to B.
Often, the most direct path to unlocking massive professional gains runs directly through solving a deeply personal problem.
