Awareness Into Action, in working with individuals, teams and organizations, applies the principles and practices of Conscious Business as a fundamental strategy and approach to business (and as a basis for competitive advantage).

I have found that in instances where traditional approaches have failed or are ill-equipped,  there is a receptivity to, even an imperative for, new solutions to people’s challenges. In such instances, I take an inside out approach, focusing first on a shift in consciousness and then using Conscious Business approaches and methods to breakthrough the barriers.

The business arena is my “sweet spot”, where I integrate my consciousness background with my experience in the business world; I am able to bring  both worlds together. For companies already practicing Conscious Business, I am able to provide like-minded support in the areas of strategy, marketing and business development.

Business Consulting

Sometimes clients need consulting and/or hands-on help in some aspect of their business and are looking for or are open to a Conscious Business solution. Here I offer my 30+ years consulting to companies or working for them (Michael Bauer Resume) in various capacities in the disciplines of:

• Marketing
• Sales
• Business development
• Product Management
• Strategy and Business Planning

Value Add

Gradually over the years, I realized my effectiveness and engagement at work was connected to the principles and practices of Conscious Business. In the latter part of my career I started consciously applying some of these principles and practices in my workplace roles. Often the results were surprising and exceptional.  I believe this experience is a value add I have to offer:  hands-on experience implementing new paradigm approaches in a range of functional roles in the trenches… practical “how-to” methods to apply consciousness to business problems. For example, I can coach people to access intuition and teach them how and where to use intuition for on-the-job decision making when time and resources are in short supply.

One-One Coaching In The Context of Work

As a Conscious Business Coach, I help managers, owners, and executives achieve greater success in business and life through the application of Conscious Business principles and practices. Again, it all starts inside.  I show people how they can “break the habit of being themselves” to achieve quantum results while becoming happier and more fulfilled.

I typically take what is sometimes called a Transformational Coaching approach and use it to address a specific problem or set of problems in the workplace or business. My style of coaching does not utilize any “360” personality-type assessments and models. I focus on helping a person to identify habitual patterns of response to their situation and accessing and taking action from a new state of being. Rather than operating from a contracted, fear oriented state, that new state of being  is expanded, driven by elevated emotions, heart/mind coherence and in alignment with one’s highest values and truths.  Since the context is business, where I often have experience or a perspective to offer, the coaching often includes jointly examining and/or working through business-specific issues.

Like a sports coach, I am selflessly dedicated to supporting the advancement of the person being coached. I apply all my experience and expertise in helping achieve to their objectives. Most importantly, I provide a trusted outside perspective and compassionate, unconditional support. Also, like a sports coach, I provide a training regimen and “pep” talks to help return individuals to the frame of mind that reflects who they want to be.

The way my clients determine whether that I can be of help to them is through a NO COST, INTRODUCTORY COACHING SESSION, where it usually becomes obvious whether there is a fit or not. This session is focused on providing immediate results for the individual.
