March 24 – Launch of Coaching Sessions via zoom

My executive coaching sessions are not available via zoom, in order to make it more convenient for my clients to receive coaching when we are not in the position to meet physically.

PRINCIPLES

My sole goal is that you use your powers for your purpose, that you can use your potential to develop in to what you want to become, and to realise your potential for your purpose – which is your performance.

01.

CLIENT-COACH RELATIONSHIP IS KEY

The relationship between the client and the coach must be one in which there is mutual respect, trust, and mutual freedom of expression.

02.

TECHNIQUES DON’T WORK

I will not use routines or mechanical ways to support you as it would mean that I am not engaged with your personal circumstances, your potential and your limitations. We will work what is best for you personally.

03.

PROVIDING A FOUNDATION FOR GROWTH & PERFORMANCE

Change needs a foundation, whether it is for personal growth or job performance. We will work on your cognitive hierarchy, from values & beliefs to attitudes & perceptions, leading to sustainable professional behavioural change.
