Bio

Lorna Weston-Smyth is a Leadership and Mindset Executive Coach who brings her years as a serial entrepreneur to businesses and professionals to help them grow to the next level. For some that’s an issue of being stuck in their own leadership or self-leadership, unable to make a commitment and follow through with it themselves or unable to lead their teams to where they want to go. For others it’s been unlocking a limiting belief that’s holding them back. What she does is she helps people unlock their potential.

She has been an active member and on the board of a number of organizations from Toastmasters to the Whitby Chamber to BNI, the Business and Professional Women organization and the Durham Workforce Authority. She works with decision makers who are in need of a neutral sounding board to refine their thinking and make better decisions for themselves and their business so they can create the lifestyle and business that they want by choice not chance.

If you are seeking to significantly improve your productivity, enhance your decision making abilities, get results from your team and reduce your frustration, consider partnering with Lorna today. She has guided new and veteran leaders to pursue and realize their dream. She has helped them create real actions plans, identify their blind spots and clarify their next step while providing an accountability system through coaching and mentoring.

10 Steps to Successful Goal Setting

When we are born, our mind is a sponge with no filters or blocks. As we grow, we have the same ideas input over and over and those ideas become fixed. Those fixed ideas then become a habit. Then, when a foreign idea, the Goal, comes in, it’s rejected. It doesn’t fit. How do we change that?
