Why Have Coaching?

With coaching on the increase managers / executives need coaching.

Why?

Because it provides:

• Increased awareness
• A more balanced life
• Better goal setting
• Less stress
• Personal fulfilment

A coach provides you with navigation for your worklife journey. A powerful relationship for people making important change in their lives. Someone who listens not only to your words but also what is behind them. Someone who will hold you accountable and keep you moving towards your goals and dreams.

A relationship with someone who is totally curious about you and your aspirations, what makes you tick, what you value, what you are passionate about in your life and what beliefs drive you and hold you back.

Coaching provides a context where you can work on the most important things in your life. A relationship with someone who will absolutely tell you the truth.

A coach has no answers, but has the questions. People do know what the answers are, the coach helps them to look inside, discover what they want and identify their strengths and limitations.

It is all about reaching ones full potential, through a form of conversation which always relates to a specific context and situation in which the client is experiencing something significant and challenging.

A challenge where the client is governed by a desire for an in depth reflection, understanding and change of him/herself and certain circumstances in their life or work.

A process of personal and social meaning making.

During coaching, client dialogue will be stimulated by placing an emphasis on selected situations and contexts where the coach is the facilitator of the dialogue.

Coaching bridges gaps. There is always a gap between performance and potential. Coaching works with the gap. Personal interference is based in fear and doubt. Coaching = potential minus interference = performance.

Coaching works with doubt and fear, lack of self confidence, trying to hard, trying for perfection, trying to impress, anger and frustration, boredom and a busy mind.

Coaching works with the individuals capacity to learn.

Coaching delivers achievement, fulfilment and joy. It encourages, responsibility, ownership and accountability.

Coaching follows interest and allows room for intuition, feelings and generates rich conversation.

Why

Coaching examines the problem. Asks what are the effects? Sorts out thoughts and feelings. Assesses the situation. Encourages motivation to deal with problems. Uses strengths. Helps let go of limiting beliefs. And helps generate personal action.

Why would anybody not want coaching!
