Coaching is the most effective method for individuals, teams and companies to go beyond just setting goals. It is about the definitive action required to achieve those goals - following through, implementation and accountability in a team environment.
Our clients choose coaching because it is the most effective way of maximizing business and personal performance and achieving the results that they truly desire.
Coaching – is neither an educational process nor advice. First of all coaching comprises questions for a client to answer. Coaching refers to the activity of a coach in developing the abilities of a client. Coaching tends to focus on an existing problem (from which to move away) or a specific outcome that the individual wishes to achieve (move towards). In both cases, the coach aims to stimulate the coachee to uncover innate knowledge so they can achieve a sustainable result. Coaches will normally check that the specific learning can be successfully re-applied by the coachee, to deal with other problems in the future.
The client doesn’t learn from the coach, but from himself encouraged by the coach. Although sometime is not easy, the coach must avoid transfer his own experience to the coachee, because if so, he will be breaking one of the basic principles of coaching.
According to the research conducted by Manchester Group and other companies, ROI (return on investment) of coaching is about 1 : 5.
