The coaching process has helped me to clarify exactly what it is about business that I get a real buzz from.
Along with the help and encouragement I receive, this is helping me to continually evolve and grow my new Chairman role.
Chairman, Design Consultancy.

| We
believe that coaching must be confidential, professional and
contractual. |
|
 |
|
| 1 |
The
person being coached is called the “client.”
The organisation paying for the coaching is called the “sponsor."
|
| 2 |
The
sponsor will usually advise the coach what outcomes they
want to see in the client and agree any benchmarking.
|
| 3 |
The
coaching sessions are entirely private and confidential
between the coach and client. Without this confidentiality,
the full benefits of coaching are eroded, as the unique
trust a client has with a coach can not be created. Sometimes
the areas where real performance improvements can be made
will be hidden to their work colleagues, and coaching can
address these types of issues sensitively and productively.
A standard form of confidentiality contract is confirmed in writing.
|
| 4 |
Typically,
a one-and-a-half hour first session with six follow-up
sessions, either face-to-face or by phone, are recommended.
The benefit of the coaching can then be evaluated, and the
coach and sponsor can refer to the benchmarking agreements
to identify if the proposed changes have occurred.
|
| 5 |
At the
end of the final coaching session, a review of the coaching
is undertaken with the sponsor. If further coaching is
deemed necessary, then a new contract is agreed upon. |
