EXECUTIVE COACHING

Our approach is based on the Co-Active® philosophy, which is the core model from the Coaches Training Institute, assumes that the client is 'naturally creative, resourceful, and whole'. In short it means that you have within you all the resources and answers that you need to move forward with your life and leadership journey irrespective how stuck or unsatisfied you might be at this point. The role of the executive coach is simply to help you access those resources and direct them in a forward movement helping you keep your own transformational agenda.

 

As such your coach will not provide any advice, solution but work with you so that you are able to come up with the best answers to your leadership aspiration. The power of coaching is derived from the alliance that is created between you and your coach and by the strict confidentiality and ethics.

 

Coaching is hence not a conversation that you had with your trusted friends/colleagues or your family members. It is not consulting, It is not mentoring.

 

 

Clients are living into and toward their personal and professional fulfillment, balance, and process.

 

- Fulfillment coaching which is about working with clients in their quest toward the most fulfilling leadership journey for them;

 

- Balance coaching concerns opening up clients' perspectives in different areas of their lives in order to make choices and turn those choices into action;

 

- Process coaching which focuses on clients being in the experience of their whole lives. It is about being in sync with our emotions and using these to further our journey.

 

The power of coaching comes from the fact that over time you will understand how to align your actions with your leadership values and purpose, thereby creating a sense of deep fulfillment, at the same time overcome any difficulties that come in your way by focusing on your core values.

 

"Getting a coach is one of the most positive decision that you can make in your career. It is your decision to embark on a transformational journey towards a better and happier self leading your life and inspiring others to follow."
