Gary  Jenkins  
  Business Coach

Background

Gary has been in the Financial Services industry for nearly 30 years. During that time he has had experience at many levels of insurance, funds management and dealership organisations, having worked with PIS, Timbercorp, Zurich, and Lend Lease in a variety of roles spanning Practice Development, Sales Management and General Management.

Gary has spent the last 5 years as an independent Consultant providing Business Coaching to a range of small to medium sized Financial Planning businesses around Australia.

Areas of Specialty

Gary’s passion is in the Practice Management and Business Coaching arena. Gary works with practices to help them identify where they really are and set realistic goals of where they want to be. He is very hands-on with the implementation of activities and behaviours within the practice to help achieve those goals.

Importantly, he sees his involvement with the ongoing monitoring and maintenance of internal practice disciplines as the key in helping practice principals maintain their momentum.  Identifying the critical skill sets of practice principals is, in Gary’s view, an often overlooked but fundamental factor in a business achieving their desired outcomes. Working with the opportunities and limitations that these skill sets create is central to the way Gary works with practice principals.

With a wealth of hands-on, practical experience and ideas, Gary has helped many practice principals reinvent their business future and, equally as important, their lifestyles.

quote_begin.gif  One of the things we've been challenged with over the past few years with other business coaches is that we haven't had that accountability and haven't stuck with the plan.

We've achieved more in 12 months than we'd  achieved in 4 or 5 years as a developing practice with Gary.

quote_begin.gif  We first engaged Gary in 2006 as we felt our business had plateau’d.  It’s amazing what a fresh set of eyes can see that we couldn’t, namely that we were undervaluing our Services.

With Gary’s help over time we were able to define our value proposition which gave us the confidence to charge what we were really worth, and importantly back it up with the client communication process Gary had implemented.

The following year our revenue was up by 40% and importantly we better understood the things our clients valued.

A great return on our investment.

quote_begin.gif  Never one to be daunted by attempting the impossible, Gary Jenkins has shown over time the insightful skills that make him such a formidable business coach that he is. Leading and mentoring not only for the believer but also for the “seeker”, displaying a sophisticated understanding of people, human behaviour, and the value of relationships in building a sustainable business along with the convincing case why all business owners simply need a business coach. I know of no better way to understand the issue of a better business than to engage Gary’s ways and just follow the pathway which unfolds.   quote_end.gif
