Put simply, coaching is a process that aims to improve performance and focuses on the 'here and now' rather than on the distant past or future. Coaching is unlocking a person's potential to maximise their own performance. It is helping them to learn rather than teaching them.
The main difference between coaching and counselling is that coaching is future-focused to fulfil your potential while counselling is past-focused with aims to heal and treat. A coach is regarded as a partner towards discovering your passion and calling and a counsellor offers insight and intervention to reinstate functionality and stability.
Coaches keep you on track and moving forward toward new levels of achievement. For many of us, having someone we answer to motivates us to act. Focus your development efforts. Coaches help you know the difference between weaknesses you need to fix and those that are best left as they are.
A coach can help you get clearer about your goals and dreams, and about what you are capable of doing in order to achieve them. They can also be a powerfully useful support system on your journey.
A session with a Coach is a conversation like no other. It is a safe, supportive and non-judgemental environment, where the entire focus is about you and is directed towards helping you attain what you want in life. You do not have to be a successful, goal-oriented person to benefit from the services of a coach. The session can be online or face to face depending on location.
This conversation will help us to understand your requirements and a chance for you to ask questions about coaching. There is no obligation for you to commit to coaching after this conversation.
