Why Would I Use A Coach?

Why would I use a coach?

This was a question I received the other day and the following is my response.

Coaching helps you make significant shifts in your personal or professional life, especially if you are feeling stuck or in need of some independent, professional support to make the change happen and reach your full potential. A good coach will help guide, inspire and motivate you to achieve sustainable change and find a more prosperous and fulfilling personal and professional life.

Never before have there been such expectations on us personally and professionally. Yet more than ever we want to find balance and fulfilment in our lives. Having a coach gives you the support to help with your challenges, identify and make the life choices and changes that are important to you, and reach your personal and professional potential.

Coaching is a positive development tool rather than a sign of weakness or failure. Work with a coach to overcome blocks, realise your potential and become the best you can be.

You may seek a coach because you:

• Want to learn and grow
• Don’t feel you are reaching your full potential
• Are you stuck in a rut
• Have a pressing challenge
• Are you undergoing a personal or professional transition
• Want to make a positive change
• Want help in defining goals that fit your values as well as your needs and wants
• Want professional support in making decisions and moving forward
• Want help in developing strategies or plans
• Are facing redundancy
• Want to improve your personal or team performance
• Want someone who will give you honest, objective feedback
• Want support in a new role or the following promotion
• Want someone who will hold you accountable
• Want someone to teach you practical and effective tools and techniques

Through coaching, you will learn to take a step back and see things from a fresh perspective, balance your priorities, build on your strengths and find renewed success. As your coach, we will focus on your agenda and success.

To discuss your specific situation and ask a few personal questions, please schedule a Free strategy session.
