Rory's impact as a coach is evident through the recognition of his clients. Eight of his clients became National Finalists in various categories, with one national winner – Little Bee's Playhouse, awarded "Most Child-Friendly Business." Other categories featuring finalists included CEO of the Year, Young Entrepreneur of the Year, and Non-profit of the Year. His commitment to excellence and results is reflected in the success stories of the businesses he coaches.

Jennica Colvin had been in Occupational Therapy since April 2022, driven by a deep emotional connection to aiding older adults, particularly inspired by a grandfather with Parkinson's disease. Starting their clinic without a solid business plan led to stress and inefficiency. Engaging a business coach helped align their theoretical knowledge with practical systems, allowing smoother operations and reduced stress for both themselves and their team. The coach's guidance not only integrated their existing knowledge but also provided the necessary pressure to implement and refine effective systems for the clinic's success.

At a marketing event, Gwen recalls the pivotal moment when, feeling overwhelmed as the sole center of their organization, they sought help to restructure their business model. Realizing their organizational model wasn't sustainable, they embraced the analogy of shifting from a bottleneck to an air traffic controller. ActionCOACH provided crucial guidance, teaching them fundamental business skills, catalyzing remarkable changes in both their personal and organizational dynamics, leading to substantial growth and transformation.

After receiving a capacity building grant from National Angels using donations raised from a fundraising walk completed by Producer Eddie from the Bobby Bones Show, Amarillo Angels began working with ActionCOACH of West Texas. We wanted to focus on the improvement of our systems, internal infrastructure, and create plans that were strategic and moved our trajectory forward in a way that has amazed us. Our goal was to help grow our organization so we could support even more local children, youth and families who are experiencing foster care. Thankfully, through the help of ActionCOACH, amazing donors, and our wonderful community we have been able to do just that! Our friends at ActionCOACH nominated us for a national award through their company and we were delighted to be named a national finalist! We didn't take home this trophy, but we definitely won because we have grown!
