Pat Snow has always been fascinated by innovation and creativity and moving toward a fulfilled life both in relation
to our self, our loved ones and our communities. The work of art we all must do is to create our life from the material we
have; the work of art of the entrepreneur is their business.
Pat is a Montreal-based Professional Coach who helps business
owners, professionals and entrepreneurs develop business and personal strategies that allow their companies and their lives
to flourish, in line with their true values and life purpose.
Shes committed to the success of self-employed professionals
and small business owners. In her opinion, they are one key to building energetic and thriving communities.
She is now taking
applications for her newest program -Entrepreneur Circles- a combination of masterminding, peer brainstorming and support
in a group setting. Almost like having your own board of directors. Only six members (each from a different business) will
be accepted into each group. Confidentiality in this program, as in all programs, is assured. For the January 2006 E-groups,
applications need to be in before December 15th. There are two groups, one for those between 6 months and two years in business,
the other for those between 2 and 5 years.
Another program Jumpstart Your Marketing, a five week action-packed program,
is perfect for the person selling a service who's tired of the roller coaster and who wants to move to the next level. This
is an action-based marketing program which helps keep people on track to meet their goals. People from many kinds of business
take this one. She also offers two industry specific ones - for financial advisors with between one and 5 years experience,
and for alternative health professionals.
Unique Personal Branding is a two session workshop especially for the person
who wants to become crystal clear about her strengths, what she has to offer, how she presents herself in her business, in
the job market, in her life.
Pat offers a variety of other business packages to suit your need and budget. She also puts
on seminar events for business people, and large networking events in environments that support business people to build relationships.
For almost five years, she has coached many new and seasoned entrepreneurs of all ages and situations to succeed in their
businesses.
Prior to becoming a Business Coach, Pat completed extensive coach training at Coach U, the largest coach training
school in North America. Plus she has a Masters Degree from McGill. A firm believer in continuing education, her studies are
ongoing. She also is the Montreal Chapter Host for Coachville. (www.coachvillle.ca)
Experiences she had throughout her
career influenced her decision to become a coach. Previously she worked in the health care sector, always with people. At
one point, she was nominated for Quebec's Persillier-Lachapelle award for Innovative Programs.
Then she worked in management
consulting where she did outplacement with senior executives, middle management, professional and support staff helping them
with career counselling to manage their transitions to new careers. She led many seminars, workshops and courses in Communication
Skills, Leadership, Goal Setting, Conflict Resolution and Retirement Planning. She also did recruitment of engineering and
technical staff.
Later she developed her first business - The Learning Network - which offered 71 courses in Business
Skills, Personal Development and Leisure to the general public. It had one full time employee, 3 part time and 50 on contract.
Lessons learned from this experience contributed greatly to her coaching business.
