Coaching for Business . . . .

Increasingly companies aim for their employees to operate more independently in the business environment, to be self motivating and diligent in their self management; to show initiative, and to identify new business opportunities. In this ever developing business culture employees must recognise their accountability yet also the latitude they have to make key decisions within a framework. The individual employee must be multi-skilled and take increased responsibility for their professional achievement and effectiveness.

The challenge for managers

Managers therefore are required to extend their levels of both delegation and empowerment when managing and developing their teams. Managers must not only have the skills for developing staff regarding their day-to-day operations but they must also be able to support their staff towards the achievement of bigger and better results.

Coaching is often an effective way of meeting this need.

Business Coaching and Goal Based Coaching 

Coaching is an interactive, collaborative approach to development and learning that is based on the client’s own skills, standards and goals rather than any external benchmarks.

The purpose of coaching is to help people improve their performances and enhance the qualities, skills and creativity of the client. The coach provides a supportive environment for the individual’s ideas and aspirations and helps him/her to think through the steps s/he needs to take.

 ‘typical’ style of coaching. We take a holistic view of the challenges around the individuals and their values, taking into account the needs of the business.

The Developmental Coach is interested in what the individual is doing, thinking and feeling – what they must do in order to be a better performer, thus real engagement with the person rather than only goal orientation.

Developmental coaching helps the client extend their thinking and therefore their capabilities beyond what they currently see as possibilities. So individuals recognise what they really have the potential to achieve.

We ensure that by using an integrated model of coaching the performer is able to use what he learns through the coaching experience to their greatest advantage even without the coach’s presence

Developmental Coaching is directed not just to the behavioural performance but also to the individual’s self management, self-directing and personal supervision which arise from the performance. This helps the individual to key into their own strengths, their motivations. The results are not just an increase in the quantity of goals but also the quality of goals achieved.

Employees go beyond their current level of skills, beliefs and capabilities. They can learn to become a better performer overall.

We see goals as important; however we see them as an indication of the improved performance. With Developmental Coaching the individual is set up well for taking on future challenges and develop new goals.

Developmental coaching is applicable to all areas of business – not only performance enhancement but also creativity, product development, negotiations and networking.

Developmental Coaching helps the individual attain an improved performance while developing their independence. Through participation the individual learns a model for coaching that s/he can use for self-coaching.

We place some importance also on the individual enjoying the whole process rather than only on the achievement of results – this increases the quality of the experience of achieving.
