CAREER & PERFORMANCE COACHING

---

 When setting out on any coaching assignment, whether one to one, or a broader remit driven by organisational needs or goals, I will always start by building a clear picture of the now and then work collaboratively to help develop an impactful & robust coaching agenda.  I will then tailor my approach to what is best for you and delivery against the agreed plan.  That may include 360 and psychometric tools, values or career driven exercises, exploring the challenges highlighted at the outset or developing skills to broaden capability.

No matter what the coaching agenda, my number one priority is always to build the trust and rapport that is vital for a successful coaching relationship.  A supportive and non judgemental environment is critical in ensuring the coachee is both comfortable and uninhibited, enabling them to explore their own thinking and strive for solutions.

There are many different types of coaching which are used for various purposes. My services include:

• Performance Coaching - usually aimed at enhancing an individuals performance in an existing role at work, looking to increase their effectiveness and/or productivity.
• Skills Coaching – focuses on the core skills an individual needs to perform their role. The approach is tailored to the individual and generally would involve achievement of a number of skill development objectives.
• Career Coaching – concentrates on the individuals career concerns and/or aspirations. It will include support for career transitions leading to greater clarity, personal change and forward action.
• Business Coaching – invaluable in supporting those within a larger organisation, whether individual or group as well as small business owners in the early stages of their Company’s  inception. The business or organisational context would drive the coaching approach and agenda in this area.
• Executive Coaching – in today’s ever changing workplace, the need for individuals to be more resilient, manage ambiguity and deliver against challenging objectives is ever present. Executive coaching is a highly effective approach to enable individuals at any level to maximise their potential and support delivery of the organisations strategic objectives.
