Coaching with Chris
What results can you expect from coaching?
Results vary from person to person, but clients tend to get several of the following benefits from our work together:
• Greater sense of control over the direction of their work and life
• More confidence in leadership abilities
• Better relationships with bosses, employees, stakeholders
• An understanding of and comfort in using different leadership styles
• Better skilled at communicating expectations
• Communicating more like a leader who inspires confidence in others
Additional benefits to working with your own private coach:
• A safe place to talk about things as they really are
• A sounding board and creativity partner
• A person to tell the real story to who has no agenda
• A resource outside the corporate/political web in which you live
• Someone who can tell you things no one else dares
• A success partner dedicated to your career and personal well-being
There are three key elements in a coaching relationship:
It is a process.
Leadership cannot be learned at a single event or seminar. Life cannot be changed based on a super-charged motivational weekend. For sustainable changes, one needs an ongoing individual process that requires focus, feedback and support.
It is confidential.
This is what gives it power: the freedom to speak without consequences. People always report that this is a critical reason they find coaching so valuable.
The agenda belongs to you.
I am here to support and challenge you in the pursuit of your objectives.
The coaching partnership creates an objective, self-reflective environment designed to explore issues such as personal integrity, self-confidence, decision-making, vision, strategies, judgment, problem-solving and personal performance.
