ABOUT COACHING
Coaching is defined by the International Coaching Federation as
Partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximize their personal and professional potential
There is much more to coaching, however, than this formal definition. Coaching is a powerful way for YOU to take advantage of YOUR skills and knowledge to overcome barriers to YOUR goals. Who can benefit from coaching?
- Executives looking to increase their success
- Leaders wanting to be more effective
- Mid-career professionals looking for a career change
- Young people looking to start their working life
In short, anyone looking to change and improve their life!
Coaching is systematic and structured. It is people-focused and forward-looking. It helps you develop insights about your present situation and helps you design actions for progress. Coaching involves YOU answering deep questions: YOU define and prioritize your values; YOU look at your choices from different perspectives. Always focusing on YOU!
Coaching is not mentoring, consulting, therapy, or feedback. As coaches, we ask questions, listen carefully to your answers, work with you to define and clarify your goals, and then help you identify specific actions to reach your goals.
