Contexts for Coaching

Coaching is the ultimate in personalised development with a bespoke approach tailored to meet the needs of an individual. It works best when there is a specific development outcome, a behavioural or other issue to be remedied. We receive coaching enquiries from people in varied contexts including:

• Managers or Business Leaders.
• Executives and Professionals seeking an edge through personal development.
• Individuals seeking to resolve problems.
• Organisations seeking to support employees and develop teams.
• Anyone seeking to be their best.

There are as many different styles of coaching as there are coaches. The traditional view of the coach is that of someone responsible for facilitating the clients discovery of resources or learning experiences that will move them in the direction of a desired outcome.

Access to more varied forms of personal development training has meant that some coaches are equipped to take a more direct approach, albeit within the conventional bounds of a client led experience.

Application of Coaching

All of the coaching assignments we undertake are designed specifically for the individuals or teams we meet. Typically we conduct a free consultation beforehand. We have a number of different formats available for coaching, each coaching assignment is bespoke and begins with a consultation to determine the format that best suits. Our coaching work typically falls within one or more of a number of broadly defined categories:

• Rapid Interventions / Behavioural Breakthrough Sessions: these are designed to remedy a pressing problem, best suiting situations where the client either feels stuck, just cannot decide what to do or is experiencing some other persistent negative state.

• Motivational Coaching: our motivations really are the building blocks of our behaviour and decisions. Typically motivation strategies operate outside of conscious awareness (habituated behaviours) so making sense of our actions can sometimes be difficult. These sessions are designed to look at motivations within a given context and determine what to leverage in terms of performance to get the results you want.

• Developmental Coaching: these are focussed sessions that are specifically designed to equip you with new skills. Each session has a specific outcome in terms of a guided learning experience and an action plan to aid implementation and habituation of new skills.

• Career Coaching: successful careers usually happen as a result of planning rather than by accident. Balancing career goals with a personal life and knowing just what action to take and when to take it can be challenging. These sessions are designed to help you determine positive outcomes, recognise the necessary steps and make any preparations required to ensure success.

A consultation serves to define the most appropriate coaching format and to identify the criteria and parameters for success. To find out more about a FREE consultations please look HERE. To see some case studies of our work please look HERE and alternatively to read what our clients say look HERE.
