When Kylee first started talking to me about coaching, she was burnt out and days away from selling her company.
I remember our first call like it was yesterday: Kylee’s gut was telling her not to sell, but her brain was trying to rationalize away what she felt was true. Something inside her felt this deal was not the right choice, but she was having a hard time backing out of what seemed to be an incredible offer.
Over the next few days I coached Kylee through the hard work of examining whether this deal was truly best for her. I put her in touch with a respected attorney to give her additional perspective and support. This new perspective and our coaching, revealed the writing on the wall: the offer was much too low for what the company was worth, and it was clear she was not in a “good faith” negotiation.
