What is coaching?

Coaching supports your right to be ‘individual’ – and to be recognised for that. Coaching is a simple, effective form of p ersonal development – to achieve swift changes in life and work.

It’s one-to-one and can cover any area you want to explore. You set your own goals and action plan, and your coach keeps you on track. A good coach will use finely-tuned and intuitive listening skills to understand your issues, and will use the principles of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) to ask careful questions that direct your thinking.

You’ll know when the coaching is working because:

• you discover your own solutions and strategies for change – with your coach’s support
• you understand better what works for you – and you take things forward with confidence
• you’re happier with yourself, and things fall into place more easily
• you unlock greater personal power
• you dare to set yourself big goals – and achieve them!

Executive coaching helps create balance, both inside and outside work. It’s ideal for d irectors and senior managers and it can tackle particular areas, such as leadership and decision-making. It can also help identify where specific training may be needed. Executive coaching has a clear business focus, and we conduct psychometric tests at the outset to gauge how someone operates at a logical and emotional level. It gives us a solid starting point for the coaching.

Personal coaching (or life coaching) can tackle often deep-set issues such as self-confidence, phobias, stress and cravings. It also helps people work through challenges with, for example, diet and exercise, career, relationships, life purpose, etc. It’s hugely powerful. It’s not therapy or advice. Instead, it helps you take control – to design and achieve a vision for your own future. It can also alleviate the need for lengthy counselling.
