coaching

If you have reached a crossroads in your career, life, business or managing change in an organisation and need ways to address these changes coaching can help you to move toward a better future with brighter prospects. A good coach helps you to explore and clarify purpose, set realistic plans and encourages you in achieving the steps you need to take to reach your goals. I want to share my experience with you, so that you can get an idea of how coaching creates new ways of thinking, feeling and behaving.

I have benefited from the opportunity to have three sets of one-to-one coaching, and I’m reaping the benefits creating a better future with brighter prospects. During my first set of coaching sessions, I explored my values, beliefs and identity. I used this to clarify my purpose and make a decision to change my career and take a new direction towards coaching, training, facilitation and consultancy.

My second one-to-one coaching experience was focused on developing healthy habits related to exercise. My coach encouraged me to use creative techniques with music and imagery to motivate me to meet my goals. I have achieved this and now exercise regularly and enjoy it.

In the third set of sessions we worked on the challenges of starting to build my own business, by setting goals around business planning and marketing. This was a different focus; it was about what needs to be done, how and when it will happen. Each of these one-to-one coaching sessions had a different purpose, but the consistent benefit was in having someone to listen, to ask searching questions and to encourage me to find ways to answer my own questions.
