Episode 471 Transforming Culture One Crew at a Time with Tara Carbo Host: Brian Miller, PCC Guests: Tara Carbo Date: June 12, 2025

In this episode, Brian sits down with Tara Carbo—a former blue-collar entrepreneur turned leadership coach—to explore how her unique background shapes her coaching philosophy. Tara shares how her deep roots in the flooring industry evolved into a coaching practice dedicated to serving blue-collar business owners. Together with her husband, she’s on a mission to bring leadership development, culture transformation, and personal growth to an underserved community.

5 Key Highlights

Niche Expertise in Blue-Collar Coaching Tara and her husband focus exclusively on blue-collar business leaders (like contractors and service providers), a demographic they know intimately and view as overlooked in leadership development.
Blending Spirituality & Practicality Coaching for Tara includes conversations around ego, self-awareness, and higher purpose—but always in language that resonates with where her clients are emotionally and professionally.
From "Why Are You Here?" to "Thank God You're Here" Tara shares strategies for moving potential clients from skepticism to appreciation, often through speaking engagements and value-first relationship building.
The Role of Culture & Leadership in Business Health Carbo Coaching emphasizes creating environments where people thrive—through leadership development, improved communication, and clear team dynamics.
Effective Client Pipeline Strategy Tara offers a practical system for defining and nurturing leads, from casual connections to committed clients—favoring authentic relationships over traditional "speed-dating" networking.

Top 5 Takeaways

Meet Clients Where They Are Especially in the blue-collar world, it's vital to translate abstract concepts (like self-awareness or emotional intelligence) into tangible, relatable language.
Thriving Culture Begins with People Business success starts with viewing employees as the most valuable asset and creating environments where they can flourish.
Curiosity and Vulnerability Are Strategic Tools Tara embraces not knowing everything—asking questions and learning alongside clients to build trust and connection.
Speaking > Selling Offering brief, valuable talks at association meetings or company board gatherings has become a core marketing and pipeline-building strategy.
A “Pipeline” Is More Than a List A healthy sales pipeline consists of people who’ve expressed real interest and are actively working through how to move forward with coaching.
