FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
WHAT IS YOUR COACHING APPROACH / METHODOLOGY?
Our process for 1:1 coaching is different to other executive coaches:
-
We structure our client engagements by the month, not by the hour. We only take on a select number of clients each month so that we can get to know our clients well & focus our energy on their success.
-
All coaching engagements start with an introductory call that allows potential clients to assess whether their coach is the right fit for them. It also allows us to understand a little about them, what their unique needs are & what the shape of their life is, so that we can customize a program to them.
-
We send our clients pre-work before their first session to prompt them to spend time in reflection before we begin working together. By taking the reflection time, clients end up getting more value for their coaching investment, as they are clearer on what they want to get out of the work.
-
The structure of each coaching engagement is tailored to the individual needs of our clients. We begin all coaching engagements with a deep dive session on our client’s goals. Following that first session, we work with some clients for 30 mins every week, others for an hour every few weeks. It’s based on their needs & schedule.
-
Clients can also text, e-mail or schedule short calls with their coach in between planned appointments should something come up. Plus they have access to our coaching portal which can be accessed from any device. It makes scheduling appointments, sharing files or notes with their coach and completing pre-work simple.
WHEN IS THE BEST TIME TO ENGAGE WITH YOU?
We are able to offer you the most value as a coach when you are in a state of transition or facing a particular challenge. Here are a few examples of situations when you might choose to engage with us:
-
You are feeling stuck or at a crossroads and you need help to uncover or rediscover your purpose so you can build a more meaningful life and career
-
You are having difficulty with an important relationship at work - maybe with your team members, peers or senior leaders
-
You are transitioning into a new, bigger or bolder leadership role
HOW CAN I ENSURE I GET THE MOST OUT OF THE COACHING PROCESS?
-
Define your goals. Have a clear vision of the outcomes you desire.
-
Be committed. Be ready to put in the work to ensure we get the results you’re looking for.
-
Be vulnerable & real. Be willing to dig deep and share what’s really happening for you, your team or your business.
-
Be open-minded. Be open to looking at yourself and your situation from different perspectives.
-
Take ownership for your part in each situation you encounter and be open to changing your approach.
WHERE & HOW DO WE MEET?
The majority of our individual & business coaching clients prefer to work via phone or video using Zoom. When being together in person makes more sense, then we will travel to you. Any travel expenses incurred will be charged to you at cost.
HOW MUCH DOES COACHING COST?
Leadership / executive coaching is charged on a monthly basis & we have a range of different coaching packages.
HOW DO I GET STARTED?
You can book an Introductory Call or get in touch via the Contact Us page.
During the Introductory Call we would like to learn more about your needs & desired outcomes, as well as happily answer any questions you have. This call will also serve as a way for you & your coach to get to know each other a little. A strong sense of chemistry & personal compatibility is critical, as you need to be able to trust your coach for the work to be successful. If you decide to move ahead, we will also discuss the next steps in the process.
Have more questions? We'd love to answer them for you.
