Coaching is a one-on-one relationship built on trust and mutual respect but centered on progress.
It is an agreement designed by you and your coach to help you realize your full potential and move forward in your journey. Coaching helps you identify and evaluate goals and is a collaborative journey to achieving those goals.
A coaching relationship involves structured conversations, or coaching sessions, where the coach:
- Listens actively and deeply
- Asks powerful questions to prompt new insights
- Generates options and expands possibilities for decision making
- Assists in identifying and avoiding obstacles to your progress
- Focuses on forward progress and being action oriented
In coaching sessions, you will be encouraged to look at your situations from a different perspective and to be willing to act differently as you gain new insights. Your coach’s objective will be to help you get to the point of having confidence and commitment to a line of action that you have identified for yourself.
The framework for this journey will be either 60 or 40 minute phone sessions every 2 weeks to chart progress, reassess progress and make necessary adjustments to ensure your success.
Coaching is about your agenda explored through structured phone conversations.
