Coaching

Become proud of how you are living

Coaching works through systematically applying insight to the areas of life where fresh insight would be most helpful.

  • Embrace the givens of reality as it is.
  • Examine the big picture of your life and align yourself with what truly matters. Become strategic. Become organised.
  • Look at how you handle life from moment to moment. How can you keep your actions oriented? How can you perform at a high level?

Through coaching, you could …

Options

Online or in-person?

Online coaching

You can get your coaching via your favourite video-chat app.

With our coaching guides?

You and your coach can use the guides we’ve created to support the coaching process.

With the guides helping keep the session properly structured, your coach will be able to focus fully on you and what you say.

Your coach will use the guide to capture your key insights and your action commitments.

The notes from one phase will set the scene for the next phase.

Your copy of the guide will help you apply your insights after the session is over.

Make a decision.

If you choose to go ahead, you’ll have all the details you need to schedule a session.

3: The Coaching

You’ll start by finding an area of your life to explore.

Your coach will help bring what’s at the back of your mind into view. You’ll pick one topic to explore in depth.

Next, you’ll build up a fresh picture of that area of your life.

What is going on? What factors need to be considered?

You’ll then think about what most matters to you.

What do you value? What would make you happy? And what annoys or frustrates you?

You’ll now set an ambition.

What are you going to try to make happen? And what will you prevent from happening?

You’ll develop your strategies.

What are the obstacles to achieving your ambition? What can you do to overcome each obstacle?

You’ll finish by making a commitment.

What exactly will you do and when will you do it?

4: The Follow Up

In the final phase of the coaching, you’ll settle on a question that the coach will ask to find out how you’ve got on.

You’ll also agree when they should ask the question.

This will help you follow through on your commitments.

You’ll want to have a good story to tell.

When the time comes, the coach will ask the question using the channel you said you’d like them to use.

Keep the discussion going as long as you like.
