A business coach can provide you with the support, guidance, and accountability you need to develop a winning strategy, overcome challenges, and achieve your goals.

After a hugely successful pilot programme at the beginning of this year we are launching our next six-month business coaching programme on Wednesday 25 October. The interactive, online course is designed specifically for FMB members and delivered by award-winning business coach, Maria Coulter.

What will the coaching programme cover?

Maria Coulter, The Construction Coach, has developed a ‘success path’ for builders, tested with over 100 small to medium sized businesses, which follows these key themes:

  1. Mindset (Motivation and business vision).
  2. Identifying profit stealers and risks.
  3. Improving productivity using tech & innovation.
  4. Winning work and getting paid what you are worth.
  5. Getting the delivery right.
  6. Attracting the right people to work for you.

How will the programme be run?

  • The next six-month programme will start on Wednesday 25 October 2023 and will run to April 2024.
  • It will be delivered via weekly one-hour group Zoom calls, with support from the Construction Coach and peer-to-peer mentoring, for a group of up to 40 members.
  • Workbooks, other online resources, and recordings of the sessions are included, in case you miss a session.
  • FMB resources such as contracts and documents will be integrated into the programme.
  • Join the course WhatsApp group for support and info from fellow members.
  • Places are limited to 40 so we advise members to register their interest as soon as possible or calling us on 0330 333 777 (Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm)..
