| About
Laura Worth:
Laura Worth, MSW brings 27 years
of business experience to her business coaching -- from entrepreneurial,
corporate, health care, and artistic settings. She has offered both
business coaching and life coaching for more than a decade. She explains,
"When I started coaching more
than 12 years ago I was coming from an intense, 15-year history of 24/7
start-up business experience. Colleagues said since I had founded
companies and was “seasoned” I would have something to offer as a business
coach. I've always enjoyed coaching small business owners, solo professionals,
and artists."
Laura is trained in counseling with a Masters
in Social Work. In 1995 she founded Worth Coaching Services to help
introduce small business and life coaching to the public in Silicon Valley.
In 2004 she moved her coaching to Vashon where she specializes in coaching
home-based business owners.
Laura teams up with her partner, Robert
Bornn, another business coach and mentor, as well as other professionals,
to expand the level of expertise and variety of professional services available
to her clients through WCS.
Laura will coach in-person, by phone, or
by e-mail in a combination that works for you.
