Coaching

What is Coaching?

Executive coaching is an ongoing partnership that helps leaders realize fulfillment in their personal and professional lives. Through the process of coaching, busy pastors, leaders and executives deepen their learning, improve their performance, and enhance their quality of life.

Coaching involves regular interaction with the Coach who listens, asks questions, introduces helpful resources and offers insights gained by experience, training and study. A skilled Coach will often demand more of you than you would of yourself, while providing you with the encouragement and the resources you need to take the next step forward. The discipline of regular coaching sessions will move you toward your goals more quickly than you would move on your own.

Why work with a Coach?

Coaching Meets Needs

You can use an Executive Coach if you have you ever…

  • Thought, “I need someone I can trust as a ‘sounding board'”
  • Wondered what others have done in similar circumstances
  • Felt you needed another perspective in order to make the best decision
  • Thought of a question you couldn’t ask “just anyone”
  • Doubted your instincts and wanted to test them with a “safe person”
  • Longed for someone outside your staff or board with whom to process ideas

Coaching Is Strategic

  • Coaching helps leaders who are contemplating significant change
  • Coaching helps leaders create more space for personal growth and satisfaction
  • Coaching helps busy executives achieve balance between their work and personal lives
  • Coaching helps busy executives define success, set and meet better goals and build better organizations
  • Coaching helps people be more effective in achieving objectives that are important to them

Coaching Works

  • Because people who work with professional coaches are already successful
  • Because people who work with professional coaches are ready to go to another level and highly value having a partner in their journey
  • Because Coaches have often taken the same journey the client wants to take and can offer insight, support and synergy
  • Because Coaches are totally committed to their client’s agenda and success
