Robert Van Arlen officially introduces RVA Global Coaching and Training.  RVA Global Coaching and Training will focus on industry-specific training programs.  For the past year, hundreds of financial advisors have been implementing Robert Van Arlen’s strategies to develop a successful practice.  RVA Global’s emphasis is on a strategic view for both short- and long-term growth.  In addition to the financial community, RVA Global is providing development programs for the legal communities.  His Taste of Rain Program for Law Firms continues to help lawyers learn how to align growth with the culture of their firm.

As a corporate business speaker and a business coach to athletes and entertainers, I share the same message that I share with corporate professionals.  You never know who you’re talking to.  All of our careers come with one guarantee—it will end.  What’s important is making sure you have people in your life whom you trust to give you good advice.  As individuals, we hire professionals to handle our more technical issues, but when it comes to common sense decisions, we typically rely on family or friends.  So, when does a team become ineffective for their leader?

When:

• their personal interest is put in front of the personality, leader or team goals
• they get caught up in the euphoria of celebrity, and
• they stop learning how to improve themselves.

Don’t let your posse take you down.  Everyone should have a role and responsibility.  If their role is indefinable, then there is no position for them.  On the other hand, a great team can bring about more opportunity than you can imagine.

The winning equation is focus + initiative + autonomy + accountability = optimal performance.

What is compelling about you?

In today’s environment, we’ve all become brands.  Social media has pushed us to a state where getting the opportunity to stand out is easy based on available platforms, but getting noticed is much harder.  To make your message compelling, you should first examine the outcomes of what you do.  Who benefits and how do they benefit?  What are the outcomes for students, families and the communities if you are a teacher?  The outcomes from your work are what’s compelling, not your position or title.  The same thing applies to companies.  What are the outcomes of the services or products your company provides?  The benefit of this approach is replication.  Once you understand it, others will also.

How should you build your brand?

First things first–and that is to develop a compelling introduction.  It will only be a maximum of 5-15 seconds.  Secondly, write it out and update everything.  All of your social media site presence should incorporate your compelling introduction.  This is the process of making your recognizable differences, recognizable.  Thirdly, practice on everyone.  This means your family, friends and associates.  There are often diamonds in your backyard.  The purpose of practice is to develop your own authenticity.

What should you expect?

Some say expect the unexpected, I say expect a great deal of new opportunity.  I’m currently coaching a business owner in Little Rock, Arkansas, named Scott M.  Scott and I rehearsed his compelling intro and the important things in his life.  He began using it immediately over the phone, in person and as an opening for a marketing event to clients.  All I can say is that he is now considered a rock star.  Everyone knew he was a financial planner in his community, but the passion was not present.  His new compelling opening has led to a flood of new business and opportunities that doesn’t appear to be ending any time soon.
