The International Coach Federation defines coaching as “partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative
process that inspires them to maximize their personal and professional potential”.
We base coaching conversations on the understanding that every client is creative and resourceful, ie. they have the
skills and experiences to draw on that will steer them to solutions. It is our job to ask the right question, at the right
time, in the right way in order to allow the client to gain clarity and perspective and decide on a plan of action.
We act as a sounding board for clients to explore and develop new ideas. We hold clients accountable for their
actions and ultimate results, supporting and encouraging achievements that sometimes push the boundaries of what
was thought possible.
Coaching works by unlocking your own resources and potential. It helps you to gain greater clarity, boost your
motivation and determination to act and to develop your self belief, often the biggest obstacle to moving forward.
