What is coaching?

There are basically three types of coaching:

Business/Executive Coaching involves helping you improve your performance at work. Executive Coaching is often about the psychology of excellence – that is making what's good even better and helping you keep ahead of the game. Business Coaching could include helping you consider how to get the best out of your staff; your peers and your superiors as well as helping you identify your strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats.

Life/Personal Coaching focuses in a more holistic way on any aspect of your life that you would like to improve. For example, a Life Coach could help you become more assertive with your friends and family, enable you to tackle people and situations you have avoided for fear of looking silly or being rejected and help you overcome a personal block such as taking up a healthier lifestyle.

Speciality Coaching is offered where the person concerned either seeks or is referred for specialist assistance in a given subject areas such as Stress, Confidence, Spirituality etc.

Although Executive/Business, Life/Personal Coaching and Speciality Coaching are seen as separate activities many people find that they are linked. Sometimes what seems like a business problem may have a connection with other life factors.

Coaching is not

Therapy or Counselling.
Coaching promotes a greater self-awareness and fuller appreciation of your own situation and circumstances. It can challenge limiting beliefs “I can't” or “I don't” and therefore allow the individual to have a shift in perspective and move forward.

A way of someone else solving your problems for you.
Coaching is about empowering the individual because it works on the basis that we are responsible for our own lives. We have power and influence over the results we get. If you are not getting the results you want coaching can enable you to

• Understand the situation more clearly
• Create new ideas or approaches for certain situations
• Take action that gets you the results you want
