Ken has been our coach for the past five years and he has helped us to grow as a company and as executives. He worked with us to first establish long-term strategic plans and continued to work with us to ensure that the plans are executed.
As our Business Coach, he has developed the Management Teams knowledge and skills in many ways including: Understanding Personalities, Improved Leadership, Enhanced Communications and Realistic Time Management to name a few.
As and executive, Ken has given me the tools to strengthen my leadership to enable our growth to move from a common Ma and Pa type Family Business Structure to a Healthy, Up-to-date and Profitable Small Business Structure.
I would recommend Ken to any business that is looking to take their business to the next level.

I was fortunate to have had the opportunity to study under Ken through the SBA Emerging Leaders Program. His presentation technique is superior. Ken articulates his expertise in a very comprehensible and timely style. He analyzes and critiques your business skillfully giving you the tools for growth. I feel confident that my business will flourish with the knowledge and enthusiasm I have taken away from from this program. I can not thank you enough Ken! More...

Ken Sevick helped Klock Entertainment grow up business in not just a financial aspect, but a productivity and processes aspect as well.
Ken taught the way of structuring your company as well providing tools to help you create the right processes and path for your organization. While doing this, Ken made sure you never lost sight of your “why” and made sure you drove your engine with passion. Ken and I still keep in touch post-coaching as friends and typically see each other once a year. Ken plays a significant role in the structure, growth, and path I chose with my company. If you’re looking to see growth in your company and growth within yourself as a leader and manager, Ken is your choice for a coach.
Thank you again, Ken!

Ken has been the most professional coach that I’ve worked with so far! Not only can he identify the problems/weakness in my business, but also can quickly suggest multiple solutions to fix them! If there is a subject that Ken is not very familiar with, he will consult with other coaches from his network to provide recommendations. It’s been over 2 years that I’ve worked with Ken and my business has grown not only in term of sales and team, but in profits as well. I would definitely recommend other business owners to work with Ken. More...

Kimberly Tosadori
Ken Sevick began coaching me in the fall of 2016. His expertise helped me go through the transition of becoming CEO of my family owned business.
I had business acumen but did not have the structure to get the correct processes, systems and accountability in place to move the team and company forward. With Ken’s guidance, incredible care for the business and my success, the company will have a record year in 2019. Ken will forever be a part of my family business.

Ken has helped us completely transform our business. He has coached us through understanding the key performance indicators of our businesses, training staff members for leadership roles and the importance of implementing marketing strategies to increase our revenue. As a result of this process, we now have a better pulse on the health of our business, and have expanded to create multiple streams of income. Our weekly meetings with Ken keeps us focused and challenges us to prioritize tasks that are working on the business instead of working in the business. More...

Executive Coaching
A Note About Executive Coaching:
If you are a successful executive, you may have been approached by your team or an outside consultancy about the possibility of being coached by an Executive Coach.
But why would you consider hiring a coach if you were already successful and delivering high performance
results?
Why would you hire a coach if you were already making lots of money?
Or if you had a track record of success?
Or if you had an important and prestigious title?
Or if hundreds (or thousands) of people reported to you?
Or if people have told you for most of your career that you are doing a great job?
Or if your employees counted on you to set direction for them?
You probably don’t think you need any help if you could answer “yes” to the above questions.
In fact, nine out of ten executives say “No, thank you” to executive coaching, and the tenth will generally say they don’t need executive coaching, but many of their direct reports do.
Despite the above, many executives have coaches, and report that their coaching experience is extremely valuable, even one of the most valuable experiences of their career.
Executive Coaching Includes:
Leadership Skill training and coaching
Change Management
Emotional Intelligence
Managing High Performers
Managing yourself and others at a high level
Strategic Planning
Operational Mastery
And more.
Systemic Team Coaching
Systemic Team Coaching defined:
A process by which a team coach works with a whole team, both when they are together and when they are apart, in order to help them improve both their collective performance and how they work together, and also how they develop their collective leadership to more effectively engage with all their key stakeholder groups to jointly transform the wider business. (Hawkins 2014:80).
What makes Systemic Team Coaching most valuable to businesses today is that it enables the team to reframe and enhance the way it relates to and serves its business environment, which means placing as much emphasis on how it leads change with its stakeholders as how it functions internally.
Therefore, rather than just focussing on the team’s internal relationships and functioning (the focus of much ‘team building’ work), the systemic team coach works with the team and its members to build their collective leadership, helping them to co-create value in their engagement with their stakeholders. These include the commissioners of the team; the investors; those that the team leads; the customers and suppliers of the team; the communities in which it operates and the more than human world the team depends upon. This approach recognizes that the biggest challenges in nearly all organizations today lie not inside the individuals, teams or even departments, but in the connections between them. Working well as a team when the team is together is an important first step to every team member being able to represent the whole team effectively when they engage with the team’s stakeholders.
