What to expect from coaching

What is coaching?

Coaching is working with you to help you develop your own thinking and to find the answer to a challenging situation. Are you being restricted by your own feelings and beliefs? Coaching encourages you to set massive goals and to find the drive to achieve them, stretching yourself further than you imagined possible in the process.

Coaching is not to be confused with counselling or therapy. These interventions are generally working in the past and the present, whereas coaching looks to the future. Coaching seeks to understand and challenge an your current perceptions and beliefs which may be holding you back. You understand your own personal drivers and how to use them positively.

Benefits

For an employer, coaching represents an investment in a valued member of the team who will be strengthened and retained to work effectively. Coaching provides additional support and focus to leaders who are new in their roles or new to the organisation, helping them to become more effective more quickly with a renewed sense of fulfilment and achievement.

For an individual, coaching aims at clarity and focus, working with strengths and building the confidence to take control of their situation. People can understand their values better, manage their teams more effectively, feel comfortable with their own motivation and well-being and overcome obstacles in their path.

Thoughts and feelings are shared and acknowledged, enabling them to be harnessed into actions and a drive towards achieving goals.

My approach

My emphasis is invariably on change in your work. I use my business experience to work particularly with women leaders who are undergoing a transition in their working lives, I am action-focused and forward looking, seeking to understand your motivations and beliefs which drive your behaviour.

I use psychometric tools and 360 feedback to build credibility, improve performance and realise your potential. My style is heavy on listening, asking insightful questions to enlighten your thinking. The answer is in your head and we keep working together until it becomes clear.

I am honest and perceptive, offering you space to work through your challenges in a confidential and constructive environment. Being coached is not easy. It can mean facing up to some harsh realities. But in a positive environment it can be hugely empowering.

We work together on building behaviours which are congruent with the your beliefs and values. This authenticity enables a trusting relationship to develop and fosters a strong sense of teamwork.

People I have coached describe my style as “empowering, action-oriented”. I focus on the whole person, giving you time and attention to work out for yourself how to find the courage which you have within yourself. This encouragement turns feelings of resentment into a resolve to take control. Satisfaction replaces feelings of stress.
