Who, What, Where, When, How of Coaching
Who is a MOH! Coaching client? Do you want more out of life, personally and professionally? More success, clarity, focus, fresh perspectives, balance, energy, prosperity/profitability, a greater impact? Clients come to me motivated to make accelerated positive changes with sustained results. They bring a sense of humor, and take responsibility for their lives.
Where? In person, phone, cyber (email, instant messaging)
How long? Length of coaching sessions range from 30 minutes to 2 hours. For sustained results, clients usually work with me for 3-12 months and may repeat the process in a new setting (position, organization, transition).
What is the coaching process-how would we work together?
1. ASSESSMENT:
Who/where are you now, and where/who do you want (and your organization) to be?
What is the gap you want to close between the two?
Goals: Clarifying values, goals, purpose, mission, and vision; raising awareness.
Tools: client welcome pack, any assessments the client has already completed, additional assessments if desired; your coach’s questions, deep listening, and constructive feedback.
2. DEVELOP A PLAN AND BECOME THOUGHT PARTNERS
The developmental plan continues to be honed and revised during the coaching process as your coach provides a fresh, objective, creative perspective.
Leaders talk through issues with their coach, using the coach as a thought partner who fully listens and understands.
3. ASK POWERFUL QUESTIONS NO ONE ELSE IS ASKING/PROVIDE FEEDBACK, ACCOUNTABILITY (throughout the process)
3. IMPLEMENT THE PLAN: Your coach provides focus, support, challenges your thinking and existing practices, brainstorms through obstacles, and celebrates your successes.
4. ACHIEVING SUSTAINED RESULTS in the time frame you have chosen.
Confidentiality: What we discuss stays between the two of us unless you choose to share it with someone else.
Payment: Due at the 1st of the month for the coming month. Fee depends on scope of the coaching, travel, etc.
