Coaching Connection FAQsWhat is Coaching?Coaching is a powerful, collaborative relationship between a coach and a willing individual which enables, through a process of discovery, goal-setting and strategic actions the realization of extraordinary results. Coaches provide the support, encouragement, and resources needed for clients to set and achieve their personal and/or business goals. How does coaching work?Clients determine what they most want to focus on during the first 3 month period. After an initial discovery session, they engage in coaching sessions via telephone either 3 or 4 times each month. Clients commit to the agreed upon steps during the coaching call. Follow-up actions and discoveries are completed by the client between sessions. Step back and enjoy the results! Who hires a coach?Individuals who want more from life and value their own potential are very likely to seek the services of a coach. They tend to be goal-oriented and achievement-driven and have had more than one success in their lives and careers. Some have reached a point in their lives where a new direction is indicated and they want the benefit of guidance to move to the next level. Businesses are also acknowledging the need to provide focus on individual employees as well as teams as a way to strengthen their competitive advantage. Many companies hire external coaches and/or develop an internal coaching staff to support the needs of the organization. What areas do people want to be coached about?This truly varies by individual but the following general areas are common to many:
Why is there more interest in coaching now?Our environment is in the midst of unprecedented change. In businesses around the globe management and employees are struggling to keep pace with technology, rising costs, competition, and labor shortages. In cities and communities growth is either coming too fast or missing entirely. In families each member has such a full calendar that even elementary students have pocket planners. We are bombarded with information 24 hours a day only to awake the next day with entirely new information. It’s no wonder that coaches are needed to create a safe environment to regroup and focus our efforts on what’s truly important to us as individuals or as organizations.
