COACHING FAQ’S

What is coaching?

Coaching is a new and upcoming profession.  It is where a coach and client partner together to:

  • Provide an isolated CEO/owner with honest feedback
  • Discover the client’s passion and purpose in every dimension of their life
  • Improve an executive’s performance as a leader
  • Discover the client’s business or personal life plan
  • Motivate the client to reach their goals
  • Guide the client to have life balance between work and family
  • Clarify the client’s desires, goals, and values
  • Check the accuracy of the client’s perceptions, reactions, and judgment


Does coaching work?

Yes, it works.  Many articles in leading publications have testified to this fact.  In INC magazine, April 2006 issue, an article entitled “Do You Need a Coach?”, Alison Stern Willner stated “Executives at larger corporations have long relied on coaches.  But entrepreneurs arguably need them more – mostly because they’re so isolated.”  It works because the coach is totally focused on the client and what the client wants to accomplish or discover.

First the coach will help the client clearly see the facts of the client’s current position or condition.  Then together the coach and client get a handle on where the client wants to be in the future.  The last piece of the puzzle is for both to determine how best to get from the present to the future.

The coach helps the client solve problems, break through barriers, see all possibilities, strategize, reach goals, discover hidden agendas, and find a fulfilling and satisfying life.


What does coaching look like?

Coaching is usually provided in three, 30-minute sessions per month.  (Other formats are available upon request.).  Normally this is done through telephone conversations.  This saves the client time and money in that they do not need to travel to an office.  The client will provide an agenda to the coach prior to each session in order to save time and to have the most productive session possible.  The agenda consists of the issues the client would like to consider.
