Coaching

What is Coaching?

Coaching is the process of moving you to the heights of your own potential. For most people, there is a gap between how they are living their lives and what they truly want. Coaching bridges that gap.

When you hire a coach, you hire a partner for your life and create a collaborative relationship where the only goal is your success. With a trained coach, you’ll live up to your potential and begin achieving more both personally and professionally.

For most people (no matter how good their life already is) there’s something more they want – money, time, closer relationships…. There’s also a belief we have to work really hard to get the “more.” Nothing could be farther from the truth. Athletes, performers and musicians know this and they find a trained “someone else” to help them set goals, discover real needs, and work effectively toward excellence. They hire a coach or a teacher. No serious athlete or musician expects to progress far without one.

Personal Coaching

Do you want to achieve more and struggle less?
Are you interested in learning to communicate more effectively?
Do you feel as good as you want to physically and emotionally?
Is it important to you to substantially increase the quality of your life?
Do you want to improve the quality of your relationships?

When you work with a coach, you will:

• Take smarter actions by setting goals you really want to achieve
• Have a balanced life that you design
• Make and keep more money
• Reach for more without being consumed in the process
• Make better decisions for yourself with a clearer vision and focus of what you want
• Have more sustainable energy and enjoy a renewed passion for life

Corporate Coaching

Corporate coaching evolves an organization and its members to achieve breakthrough results. Corporate coaching is central to a cultural evolution process that shifts the landscape of the workplace from one where people receive direction from others to one where people commit to doing things they care passionately about. Everyone wins and organizations achieve extraordinary results when their members’ creativity and potential are realized.

Global competition, advances in computer and telecommunications technology, product and service innovation and the emergence of the customer as a central player in the organization, have created a new corporate imperative. Companies are recognizing the value of their employees. Cultivating and maintaining a loyal, highly motivated work force is critical to success. Competitive advantage, even survival, compels organizations to continually innovate at an unprecedented speed.

Rapid response to the marketplace is made possible in organizations promoting continual advances in knowledge within their cultures. Leaders and members alike must radically shift the way they think and act in relationship to work. They must place a new emphasis on learning and the harnessing of individual and collective creativity. This will require a new type of workplace relationship. Coaching provides both a technology and a process for such a relationship and is one of the cornerstones for organizational evolution.
