Electronic Billboard On Long Beach Highways

City Council will look at the Electronic Billboard Proposal today.

They are scheduled to review the potential use of six digital billboards along local freeways during its April 15 meeting. You know those bright, annoying and distracting bling-bling ugly hige neons (do I make my feelings clear?) on the Highway? City council is recommended to consider setting a minimum net revenue if the billboards are enacted and to outline the details of revenue-sharing agreements with arts and public safety in Long Beach.

Hopefully they will not only take into consideration money and revenue but the danger they provide.

Coaching Tools And Methods, When To Use Them

As coaches, we have a wealth of tools and methods we can use with our clients. Sometimes, we get a little over excited and give them more than they can chew on a first bite.

For instance, the mistake I made in my first “welcome package” for my new client was to send too much information and questionnaires. When a new client who might not always know what coaching is gets too much information and too many questions asked, they might retract.

Today my welcome package is very streamlined. An introduction as to who I am, my experience, what coaching is and isn’t, an agreement as to what coaching will be and the ICF code and standards. I add one questionnaire so that I can get a sense of who the person is and how that person learns or goes through changes.

It’s fun learning and growing.
