Common examples include; need to work on my resume, broaden my experience, enhance my skills, save my income, and maintain a stable family life until my children are gone.

Strictly for example sake I’ll take our mission at Upfront Ventures. I’ve spent hours this week reading about the firing of the head coach and personnel manager of the football team I support – The Philadelphia Eagles. This is something I try to coach against.

For example, Trina Spear from Figs, which you know as a hometown favorite, has done amazingly well in terms of rethinking apparel and that space. The last thing, is understanding how open and receptive all of these CEOs were to feedback, coaching, and improvement. You can't be the best at everything.

I write this post as a warning to pick your VC’s carefully.

You are writing about the essentials of business. The Startup Metrics post is a good example of what I call “holocognics.” I am planning right not to write a post about how startups often get SEO wrong. Right now we have a lot of Intellectual Property and Cyberlaw work that crosses over between the two facets of our firm.

Plus, if she does have areas where we could coach her on improvement it would help to know that coming in.” One obvious example is that HR can make a few calls that the hiring manager doesn’t make.

After many extended coaching sessions with entrepreneurs and small business owners, I’ve found myself wondering if my value-add was anything more than you could get by self-coaching.
