Gary Brunson Business Coach | TAB North Central Indiana

Gary Brunson is CEO of Clear Focus LLC, offering client specific consulting services focused on generational transfer of family, leadership development, and infrastructure systems evaluation and redesign. He was an operations manager in the financial services industry for ten years. During this time he carried various responsibilities including life insurance and retirement products, management development, internal divisional restructuring, divisional and corporate strategic planning, and marketing and sales.

In 1989, Gary started his own consulting company, specializing in the use of behavioral assessments for enhancing individual and team performance, effective hiring, conflict resolution, and leadership redeployment. Gary has degrees from Bluffton College, University of Virginia, and University of Notre Dame, in education, communications, applied psychology and business.

His work with companies has resulted in restructuring the management team of a $ 35 million company to position it for growth to its current size of $ 100 million in 3 years. He has, over a three year period, guided the successful growth of a multiple corporation, family owned business to transition from the second generation owner, to the third generation owner executive, while strengthening family relationships, reorganizing company structure, and developing internal leadership strength for this company to grow several times larger over the next 3 years.

The best business decision that I’ve ever made (besides opening my store) was to join the TAB Board. It taught me how to structure and formulate basic fundamental policies and procedures; it has helped me sharpen my vision for future business and personal goals. The TAB Board provides a safe place to bounce around ideas and receive honest, creative solutions to important business challenges. Coaching sessions are professional, focused and very enlightening. They have helped me work on my business and not in my business.

I have found my investment in TAB to be one of the best things I have done. One of the benefits of joining TAB has been the Peer Board Member’s help in designing a sales program that works. It works because I took the time to help our sales people become better salespeople, not merely pressure them to do more of the same. By being around people who think differently who are going to ask me each meeting how I did, compels me to make the improvements that enable me to enjoy life, and boy, do I enjoy life. I recommend this amazing program without question.

There are numerous benefits. Certainly having a great coach is a huge asset. Secondly, having the opportunity to vet business opportunities, strategies and plans is a great help. Last, it is very gratifying to help fellow board members work through their issues as well.
