Coaching Defined
Active coaching is a
commitment to concentrating on client strengths and the desire to grow and
develop skills needed to achieve specified goals. The following
highlights the differences between coaching and other available services
and industries.
 |
While coaching focuses purely on the client’s agenda, training
follows a fixed agenda to convey specific ideas or methods.
Training is offered upon request and through our teleclasses program.
|
 |
Through questions and discovery in the coaching process, we will
identify client goals and focus on collective wisdom so that clients
may achieve them. In contrast, consulting concentrates on
providing answers by assessing problems and recommending a specific
course of action.
|
 |
Coaching will foster client strengths and achievements to bring about
growth and development, and is not designed to repair or diagnose
deficits that counseling would address. Referrals to specialists
are made in such cases.
|
 |
The
coaching approach offered supports client wisdom in all areas of
growth, while mentoring is usually career focused and concentrated
on creating future behaviors based on the wisdom of someone other than
the client. |
Adhering to the philosophy of the coaching model will allow us to maintain
the integrity of the coaching relationship, and provide focus on your
primary agenda. |

“An effective coach actively
listens, thoughtfully asks questions, encourages teamwork, and
identifies motivation to reach goals; a resource who becomes a
catalyst to affect positive change in behavior, as defined by the
client’s expectations of success.”
