- Members receive support to set and reality test at least one significant goal, then they go on to develop and implement an action plan to achieve their goal.
- As needed means you pay a fee, which can be up to $300/hr, to set your goals and develop an action plan. This is the most expensive alternative. It may be the way the alternative large organizations choose when they seek to implement a managerial coaching entrepreneurial program.
- All of the above are correct.
A: (e) For most people, even altruistic members, membership is the most effective alternative. Free is a good way to start, but go on to an Action Planning membership and create a Special Project to fund implementing your plan.
