What is coaching?

A simple definition of coaching is “bringing out the best in people”. However, this term means different things to different people. It can encompass areas of knowledge and expertise, giving support and encouragement, providing guidance for personal and professional development and skills improvement.

Why use coaching?

Coaching can provide clarity, direction, support and solutions in a wide variety of situations ranging from relationship to career challenges to small business and corporate growth.

Our individual and corporate clients have achieved outstanding results in many areas including: Performance, Leadership, Increased Sales & Profitability, Work / Life Balance, Business Start Up and Development, Relationship Management and Career Direction and Development.

How does coaching work?

While helping the person being coached to build a strong personal foundation, coaching helps people identify WHO they are in terms of beliefs, values, standards and behavior; WHAT they want – achieving their full potential, promotion, increased productivity and more effective time management; and HOW to get it by helping them devise strategies, goals, targets and keeping them on track.

The coaching process provides a foundation for continuous, life-long learning and improvement enabling individuals to add value to their chosen cause, organisation or direction.

As a skilled listener your coach will ask the ‘hard’ questions, possibly make some suggestions, identify resources, offer more options and facilitate the learning of good choices as you decide on the best solutions.

Your coach is a trained partner who helps you achieve fulfilling results in your personal and professional life. Through the process of coaching you move from where you are to where you really want to be. Coaching is about enhancing the present and building your future.

As the client you are always in the driving seat.

Our relationship is personal, confidential and built on rapport, compatibility and trust. Your coach will be involved enough to hold you accountable, yet detached enough to be truly objective.

Your coach acts as a sounding board, reflector and advisor to hold you accountable for your intentions and actions.

Coaching can be delivered either face-to-face or on the telephone or by email. Sessions range from half an hour to two hours and at weekly, fortnightly or monthly intervals depending on your needs.
