I am just not that good at coming up with witty, marketable names for my classes. Help me!


My first Green Business Coaching Group is wrapping up in July and I am launching a new Green Business Group/Class in September. The new Group will feature different green business topics being taught each week by me and special guest speakers. Coaching techniques (active listening, powerful questioning, asking for commitments and accountability, etc) will be incorporated in the conversation in order to enhance learning and help participants to achieve their goals. Participants will also be able to help drive the agenda- asking for classes on topics of interest to them. People in the current group have really enjoyed the conversations that we have had and the connections they have made with each other. Feeling connected to each other and exchanging ideas has been a rich part of our group.


The New Name

Some basic info:

  • The class meets on the phone- it is a tele-class (or tele-seminar), we also use a web component when we need to for presentations. So– participants can be from anywhere in the country, not limited to Hawaii, where I live. The class meets twice a month for a hour each time for three months.
  • It is a Class/Coaching Group. I was previously calling it a Green Business Coaching Group, but this concept seemed too hard to explain. Everyone understands what a class is and I will incorporate coaching into the class.



    • Here are some of the words that I have been playing with, but unable to put into any great order:
    Connect (Connection)
    Engage (Engagement)
    Achievement (Achievement)
    Accomplish (Accomplishment)
    Regenerate
