IBA Thesis #2:

Most of the $35B information business value growth will accrue to expert coaches in the areas of small business, personal finance, health and wellness, and personal relationships.

 

This thesis comes from the following observations:

Observation 1:

The core elements of health & wellness, business & money, and personal relationships are most central to personal and professional fulfillment, satisfaction, purpose, and aspiration.

Observation 2:

These core needs are likely to become more important and valuable to individuals as the pace of technological and societal change continues to accelerate.

Observation 3:

The skills, beliefs, habits, and attitudes that produce meaningful growth also produce wisdom and fulfillment in the moment; acquiring these skills improves the present and the future. 

Observation 4:

Word spreads quickly about expert facilitators who have the skill and experience to help people achieve profound, measurable results.

Observation 5:

Because these areas (health, money, business, and relationships) determine quality of life, clients are willing to do the necessary work to earn results. This reinforces the virtuous cycle. 

Observation 6:

There is deep moral alignment when expert coaches grow their wealth and wellness by spreading wealth and wellness. The importance of alignment can’t be overstated. 

Observation 7:

Institutions (universities, corporations, religions, governments) have increasingly traded honesty for expediency, creating great opportunity for experts who operate with integrity.

Observation 8:

The process of building a strong personal and professional brand on the strength of exceptional client results is increasingly well understood.

Observation 9:

The process of continuous improvement to produce increasingly powerful client results is increasingly well understood.

Observation 10:

The daily operations that produce a highly effective and successful Information Business are increasingly well understood.

How does IBA help expert coaches deepen their impact, grow their profit, and serve their clients with integrity?
