Personal business coaching
In English ยท For UAE owners

Work with
Piernicola
De Maria.

Personal business coaching for owners in the UAE. Work on a situation in your business, including how you respond to it.

The coaching is in English, directly with Piernicola. It can include business advice and a closer look at how you respond when a decision or a conversation is difficult.

How the coaching works

What can you bring
to coaching?

A recent example gives the conversation somewhere to start. These are possible starting points, not a diagnosis of your business.

A decision
on hold.

A decision can remain open because information is missing. It can also remain open after the options are clear. In that case, look at the consequence of choosing: what would you have to give up, change or say to someone?

The distinction matters: more research may answer the first problem and do little for the second.

Responsibility
returning to you.

If work keeps returning after you hand it over, go back to a specific instance. Did the other person know what they could decide? And did you let them decide, including when their answer differed from yours?

The coaching can examine your intervention as well as the arrangement you made.

A difficult
conversation.

A disagreement with a colleague does not always need a longer explanation. It may need a clear request or a boundary you are prepared to keep. Start with what has happened and what you need to discuss.

You can use the session to work out what you need to say and what you are asking the other person to do.

About Piernicola

Working with
business owners
since 1999.

Direct advice, with room to question your own explanation.

Piernicola works with business owners on how they run their companies. In personal coaching, the discussion also examines what the owner does in a particular situation, and why the same response may keep returning.

You can expect questions about what happened, as well as an opinion about the business problem. If you have already tried to change something, include that. There is no value in recommending the same action again without understanding why it did not work.

You make the decisions and carry out the work. The coaching gives you a place to examine them with someone who is outside the situation.

Before you decide to work together.

The starting point
One situation from your business. Explain what happened and where you want help. A recent example is more useful than an assessment of your entire personality.
The arrangement
The scope and fee need to be agreed before work begins, along with the format and scheduling. This page does not offer a fixed-duration programme.
Your preparation
The next page includes an optional writing exercise. Use it to prepare an example. It does not assess your answers or reserve a coaching session.
