Here's a great example of the magic that can happen with collaboration, from the music world:
John Lennon is someone who benefited from partnering with the right people, namely Paul McCartney.
Before The Beatles, Lennon was the leader of a band called The
Quarrymen, and was looking for a good guitar player when a friend suggested that he meet a 15-year old named Paul McCartney.
Paul played a song for John (“Twenty Flight Rock”) and really impressed him, so it should have led to an instant invite into the band.
But John balked, because he was conscious of his own guitar-playing at
the time and didn’t want to be upstaged by someone two years younger than he was and who could become a rival.
After a week of thinking about it, John decided to invite Paul into the band … and the rest is history.
Lennon and McCartney went on to become the greatest songwriting duo in music history, and The Beatles have sold
hundreds of millions of albums.
But what would have happened if he let his fear of competition scare him off?
I see coaches who are so afraid of losing business to other coaches that they miss out on opportunities to work together.
They drop
them from social media, kick them out of their groups, and run them down behind their backs.
While competition can be a powerful motivator, a lot can be achieved by collaborating with talented peers!
I'm currently looking to collaborate with good joint venture partners who have products and services that benefit
coaches.
