Professional
coaching isn’t going to make all your decisions for you,
whether you’re looking for
corporate coaching or
executive coaching services or
personal coaching. It won’t articulate your values or
set your goals or, without your cooperation, hold you to
your goals. What it will do is provide a safe and
supportive atmosphere in which you can make decisions
for yourself. There's one thing the best of us do
best: we look at the same facts you and your
friends have been looking at for years, and then think
of things you haven't thought of.
Coaching works because
a good coach fulfills several human fundamentals:
 1. The longing
for an ally or partner on one's path,
particularly during challenging times.
2. The longing
to be and feel understood.
3. The curious
but true need for permission to change,
particularly when you know doing so will mean a loss of
understanding, or even growing away from, old
friends.
4. The power
of commitment, wherein a person wanting something
strives harder for it because of a promise to
another.
What
Professional Coaches Can Do For You What Coaches Will
Do With You
What
Professional Coaches Can Do For You
What can you
get out of coaching? Because coaching encompasses all of
life, wherever and whenever a client needs a boost of
any kind, there are few limits to what you can get out
of coaching. But you also wouldn’t be satisfied with a
true answer, like “It depends,” so, well, we’ve put
together this list of what you can get out of
coaching.
In any type of
professional coaching, if you hire a coach, the coach
can work with you on:
Mindfulness and Perspective
•
Seeing what there is to see • Observing yourself
clearly and without judgment • Seeing others as they
are • Accepting yourself and others
•
Starting on a spiritual
path
The Way You Are and The Way You Appear to
Be
•
How you come across to others – what they are seeing,
and responding to • How you respond to others – your
boss, your intimate relationships, those you’re supposed
to lead • Who you are – to yourself and around others
– ideally, you’re the same
Actions To Take
•
Taking care of yourself • Finishing things around
you • Developing strong relationships
What To Say
•
The words you use (phrasing, tone, articulation) •
The truth of those words • How you say
them
What
Professional Coaches Will Do With You
There’s
another, more specific way of looking at what
professional coaches do
(based on our own thoughts and some incisive points from
Sandy Vilas, CEO of CoachInc.)
• To set better
personal or business goals – goals that most accurately
and insightfully reflect your true values, not what you
may initially think you should have as a goal
•
To reach goals faster – as you’re coached through a
consistent structure of support and innovative
strategies and approaches
•
To make significant changes – if we’re human, we’re all
called upon to change daily; coaching brings change into
consciousness, so that you can start to intend the
changes that occur
•
To become more financially successful – not financial
advisors but knowledgeable about the concept of adding
value, coaches can, once again, help to clarify goals
and values – and even match income to spending
•
To design – and live – the perfect life.
•
To get ahead professionally through effective career
advancement strategies, reputation-building methods, and
business development skills, through a coach’s expertise
and entire network of resources.
•
To make better decisions. Who ever got schooling in
making decisions? It’s one of the hardest things we do.
Coaching can help.
•
To have a collaborator. You may want a brainstorming
partner, someone who understands the creative process
and expands on your own energies – and who can help you
reach a certain synergy. Coaches are focusing
lenses.
•
To improve personal and professional relationships and
family life. Coaching can help you to get reconnected
with those with whom you’ve become disconnected, because
that’s really what it’s all about, isn’t it?
•
To make a bigger, or more meaningful, impact in the
world. We’ll help you identify your unique strengths and
resources to make a difference.
•
To simplify your life. How can you simultaneously
simplify and enrich your life?
Life coaching can really
help.
•
To strengthen your personal (and therefore professional)
foundation. Your core is all the power and knowledge you
need.
•
To reduce stress and those things we tolerate too
much.
•
To increase revenue or income from your business or
profession. Whether you seek to increase your personal
income or your business revenue (or to start a
business), coaches have the skills to collaborate and
advise. (And at Feroce, we especially have experience in
starting up businesses.)
•
To become a better and more successful manager,
executive, or businessperson.
