ActionCOACH helps businesses in Indonesia

ActionCOACH is leading the way in inspiring SMEs to grow their operations and take more than just inspiration from large companies.

Indonesian companies are being encouraged to give back to their local communities through corporate social responsibility initiatives that inspire small businesses to reach higher. However, according to business coaching franchise ActionCOACH, more needs to be done to improve the financial stability of SME’s in the country.

Prijono Nugroho, ActionCOACH Jakarta’s Managing Partner, commented on how a lot of programmes are guilty of not helping small businesses.

"For example, at some seminars or conferences, the organiser would only invite prominent speakers to share insights without giving structured guidance and accountability in the execution. As a result, the sponsoring company have no real way to market their community impact."

ActionCOACH says that all businesses who truly want to help smaller enterprises grow should invest in programmes that offer education, planning, guidance and accountability, as well as the inspiration they currently offer.

One of ActionCOACH’s own clients, Boardgame Lounge, expressed how helpful its programmes have been in helping it expand. CEO Winda Varesa began working with the franchise in 2015 and said:

"I used to run this business on my own. My coach guided me to manage my finances and create systems. Now I have two more branches, more income, and a business that runs without me."

ActionCOACH has more than 25 years’ experience in the business coaching industry and helps business owners grow their operations in more than 80 countries across the globe. Its Indonesian operations have been particularly successful and now host a quarterly event, the Jakarta Business Excellence Forum. The event allows entrepreneurs and successful businesspeople from across the country to gather and share their tips, as well as offering practical advice to each other to help them succeed in the months ahead.
