What is coaching?

As in the world of sport, coaches provide motivation, enhance skills, and improve performance. Coaching aims to bring out the best in an individual and enables the team to work better as a whole. Successful organizations use coaching, and many individuals have their own private coach, realizing that this is a vital investment in their personal development.

It is particularly appropriate for busy senior executives for whom being lonely at the top is a common experience. Many have not had the benefit of training or development for years. The coaching relationship is objective, non judgmental, and strictly confidential. Your coach will be driven by your needs, help you set and achieve goals, and can be a guide, sounding board, even a taskmaster.

Our experience is that organisations with a coaching culture achieve better results. Performance improves when people receive honest and constructive feedback, appreciation, respect, encouragement and reward. Whether in the public or private sector, authoritarian styles of management are giving way to techniques that support and empower staff.

“Training alone is reported to be 22.4% effective, whereas coaching increased productivity by 88%” (International Personnel Management Association)
