Personal Coaching

There are many reasons for working one-on-one with a coach :

• To get out more easily of a difficult moment, such as a career transition, a creative block or difficulties at work,
• To help manage time and organisation in order to gain personal efficiencies,
• To overcome fears or undermining beliefs which spoil the enjoyment of daily life,
• To better balance work and family life,
• To help redirect one’s life towards a more rewarding activity or position,
• For objective support in difficult moments when preparing an exam,
• For people returning to the work force after some time out,

Which challenge will you address ?

Whatever be your goal you can be sure to move faster towards that goal with a good professional coach. You will enjoy the unconditional support of your own personal Coach.

A good coach is:

• Better than a friend because the coach works along you for what YOU want
  • On sensitive or key issues, a friend may hesitate to ask you to face-up to the matter at hand… or that friend may be influenced by his/her own judgement of your situation.

• An objective observer who will support or challenge you when required.
  • All clients agree that they accomplish more when working with a demanding coach like me.

• A professional in the art of listening and asking questions.
  • Good coaches have received specialised and supervised professional training.

• A safe person to share plans and secrets with.
  • A good coach is bound by a written confidentiality agreement.

• Someone who knows how to recognize and acknowledge your qualities and your achievements.
  • We all are our worst enemy when it comes to evaluating how we perform.

• Someone who will demand action and progress from you.
  • Sympathy and empathy are OK, but generally, it is action that generates progress.
  • The regular sessions help you stay on top of your plans, clear about your challenges and active in your development.
