  • Why small businesses stay small,
  • How to diagnose the issues for your business,

About Dr Greg Chapman

Throughout his 25 year career, Dr Greg Chapman has applied his business experience in seven countries, including eight years in the US and UK.  Because of this experience, there was an opportunity to pass on the international best practice business management expertise he had acquired, to businesses that would otherwise have no access to experience at this level.  In part, this led to his current coaching business.

Dr. Chapman has been responsible for the operation of businesses and projects ranging from the micro scale to billion dollar businesses.  He lives and breathes a wide range of business solutions “from experience”.  Through his company, Empower Business Solutions which provides one-to-one business coaching and advice, and now the Australian Business Coaching Club, Dr. Chapman is dedicated to assisting Australian business owners with the ‘Right Kind of Help.’

He has created the Australian Business Coaching Club in response to the demand by those who want access to his knowledge but were unable to afford one-to-one coaching.  As a result of his direct knowledge & experience in running businesses, Greg’s approach is not like that of an accountant, a sales person, or a bank manager.  He thinks and acts like a business owner.  The advice he gives is based on his own knowledge – not from a manual written by someone else.  So he is able to tailor his programs for the needs of individual business owners.  Greg’s successes include the doubling of the return of capital from one business for which he was personally responsible, increasing sales by 400% for one of his clients, and increasing productivity by 30% for another.  His focus is always on the maximisation of his clients’ time and financial investment and the realisation of their goals through ongoing training.  His approach addresses the need for acquiring knowledge, the creation of a plan and support while taking action to achieve goals in taking the client’s business to the next level.  The approach in all programs is extremely practical in meeting the needs of small business owners.

Apart from coaching private clients, Greg also teaches at the Swinburne University School of Business, and the Melbourne CAE.  His qualifications and memberships include:

  • Ph.D. from Melbourne University
  • M.B.A. from Deakin University
  • Certified Master Coach from the Behavioral Coaching Institute
  • Memberships of the following organisations:
    • Australian Institute of Company Directors
    • Council of Small Business of Australia
    • International Coach Federation
    • International Coaching Council
    • National Speakers Association of Australia
  • Dr Greg Chapman is the creator and editor of the Australian Small Business Blog and is a Telstra Business Awards and a Marketing Communications Executive International Awards Judge.
  • Empower Business Solutions t/a The Australian Business Coaching Club was also a Finalist in the Rotary Club Enterprise Awards
