In the podcast episode of Arty Finch – Business Maturity for Startups, Jon Dwoskin discusses the importance and impact of business coaching with host Artem Gonchakov. Jon shares his journey into coaching and provides insights into his coaching philosophy and methodology. Key Points from the Episode: Jon's Journey into Coaching: Jon Dwoskin was inspired to become a business coach after listening to Brian Tracy's audio series, The Psychology of Success, as a teenager. He worked in various business roles, including founding one of the first internet companies and working in commercial real estate, before starting his coaching career in his early 40s. Focus of Jon's Coaching: Jon specializes in helping business leaders, from solopreneurs to Fortune 500 executives, get “unstuck” by identifying and overcoming barriers to growth and success. His approach emphasizes creating a supportive space for clients to explore their challenges and potential, often revealing hidden strengths and opportunities. Common Challenges Faced by Business Leaders: Difficulty in effective communication and leadership within teams. Struggles with technology adoption and ensuring its proper use within companies. Issues in hiring, training, and retaining employees. The need for alignment and consistency across all levels of an organization.

Focuses on developing tailored action plans and providing consistent, manageable steps to ensure progress. Uses a mix of questioning and listening to help clients understand their intrinsic motivations and align them with their business goals. Future of Business Coaching: Jon believes that the demand for personalized, high-touch coaching will increase as businesses navigate the complexities of automation and AI. Plans to expand his coaching practice to include more keynote speaking and group training sessions, while maintaining a core focus on individualized coaching. Recently launched an on-demand platform, Launch 3, offering micro-courses aimed at personal and professional development.

Michael Chagala's career began sweeping the server room floor as an unpaid intern at a software development company, later progressing from software engineer to digital marketing then leadership. Michael was an executive at one of the fastest growing companies in the United States helping bring a small energy company from $20 million annual revenue to nearly $70 as part of a small team of Directors. While burning out from 20 years in the corporate world, Michael started Rank Harvest as a side-hustle. He started by advertising on Craigslist and doing all the work himself. He got up at 4am to work 4 hours before his day job, then another hour during lunch, 4 more in the evenings and 12 hours each on the weekends. He did this for several years until taking a leap of faith and quitting his day job; the rest is history. Today, Rank Harvest is a full digital marketing agency that employs multiple full-time, part-time and contract workers. While the company's main focus is direct, long-term engagements with businesses, Rank Harvest has sold over $2 million in digital marketing services on Fiverr. Rank Harvest has served over 4,000 customers since opening its doors in 2018.

Meetings are too long, and most people won't tell you. The truth is, executives spend up to 23 hours a week in meetings, and half of that time is wasted on inefficiencies, lack of structure, and unnecessary discussions. The fix? Cut meetings in half. Set a clear agenda, assign ownership, and make sure every person in the room knows their role. Start on time, end on time, and keep it focused. When you tighten up your meetings, you'll save hundreds—if not thousands—of hours a year. That's time you can reinvest into growing your business. Look at every meeting and ask: Where can we cut this down? Ready to cut your meetings in half?

In 2009, David Lawrence took a job as an assistant strength coach at the Poliquin Performance Center and saw first hand the methods of Charles Poliquin (The Poliquin Principles) were producing more results with top professional and Olympic athletes than anywhere else in the world. “Guys were making more progress in one offseason that I had seen most athletes make in an entire college career. In 2012, David started MECA based around the teachings and training methodologies of Charles Poliquin and has taken more than 20 seminars and courses with him. Since the inception of MECA, our coaches have worked with athletes in 25 sports with multiple athletes in the NFL, NHL, professional soccer, and other Olympic Sports. Our clients will on average make more progress in speed, strength, and vertical jump in 3 months than they have in the last 3-5 years training on their own or with another program. In 2015, MECA teamed up with Tri-Covery Massage and Flexibility to create a one-of-a kind performance and recovery center in Novi, Michigan. Tri-Covery is home to some of the best Fascial Stretch Therapists (FST) in the Midwest. It is not uncommon for clients to see more improvement in flexibility and range of motion in one or two sessions than stretching on their own for 12 weeks. Combining that with the personal training and performance side of things, you are getting something truly special when you come into our facility.

Focusing on one driving activity each day can transform your business and personal growth. Identify a specific, measurable task that directly moves the needle—whether it's making 10 sales calls by 10 a.m., connecting with your team by noon, or reviewing your company's vision by 9 a.m. Precision is key: quantify your activity, time block it, and follow through. By prioritizing this daily habit, you'll stay ahead of the curve and drive consistent progress.

Schedule a feedback session and ask them to identify one area where you can improve as a leader. By embracing and implementing their insights, you'll unlock exponential growth for yourself and your team.

Reducing workplace distractions starts with understanding their source. Begin by cataloging interruptions—ask your team where and how they're being distracted. Use this information to set clear standards. For instance, replace open-door policies with scheduled office hours for non-urgent matters. This simple change can minimize disruptions, improve focus, and boost productivity. Remember, saving just four minutes a day translates to 100 hours a year per person. Take steps to eliminate distractions and watch your business thrive.

Creating a 30-day business plan can be a game-changer for your growth. Focus on one to three specific, measurable activities that drive your business forward. Avoid overloading yourself with goals and instead prioritize what matters most. Use time blocking to ensure these key activities are part of your daily routine—whether it's an hour or even just five minutes. Consistency, Monday through Friday, will keep your momentum strong and your business moving in the right direction.

In Chapter 10 of The Think Big Movement, titled “Unintentional Chaos and Serendipity,” Jacob experiences periods of disorder that unexpectedly lead to positive outcomes. This chapter emphasizes how, even amid chaos, serendipity can significantly contribute to success. Jacob learns that relinquishing control can open the door to surprising and beneficial results. Consider this: Where in your business can you loosen control to allow for innovation and serendipity? Reflect on a process where you typically maintain tight oversight and delegate it to a trusted team member. By doing so, you create space for fresh ideas and unexpected solutions. When you embrace moments of chaos, growth and innovation can thrive. Download The Think Big Movement and its companion workbook for more insights on growing your business big.

In Chapter 7 of The Think Big Movement, titled “Trust Your Gut,” Jacob wrestles with a challenge many leaders face: the tension between data-driven decisions and following intuition. While logic and analysis have their place, Jacob learns the value of trusting his instincts—realizing that his gut has often led him to the right choices in the past. This chapter reminds us that intuition, informed by experience, can be a powerful tool in decision-making. Consider this: When was the last time you trusted your gut and it paid off? Reflect on a current business challenge and take a moment to tune into your instincts before diving into the data. Action Step: For your next major decision, pause for a minute to consider your initial instinct. Let it guide you alongside your analysis.
