Do you need a noun descriptor like "leadership coach" or "executive coach" to stand out in the crowded coaching market?
In today's episode, J.R. Flatter and Lucas Flatter have an in-depth conversation exploring the pros and cons of using a noun descriptor versus taking a more general approach to coaching.
