What is Coaching?

Coaching is a form of development in which an experienced person, called a coach, partners with a client in achieving a specific personal or professional goal by providing guidance.

​

What is the purpose of coaching?

In a nutshell: Coaching accelerates the client's change curve. 

Skilled coaching brings to light the various layers of thought and emotions involved in any decision, issue, or challenge. Modern times are fast-paced and jam-packed with distractions. We multitask to achieve success in our busy lives; our quiet times for deep thought are fleeting. With devices at our fingertips, we do not easily make time for reflection. Against this backdrop, our thoughts and emotions can become increasingly convoluted. When you really want progress in thinking through an issue, a coach can be a valuable partner to use your limited time optimally.

 

How does a coaching session work?

To book a slot on my schedule go to the Booking page of this website. The initial 30-minute exploratory video call is free so that we can get acquainted, discuss any questions, and take care of the paperwork. For the coaching sessions, we meet via zoom for one hour in a calm and confidential setting. You choose your goal or topic, and as your coach, I will listen intently from a place of neutrality. I will ask perceptive questions without opinion or judgment so that you will untangle the paths of your ideas and emotions. This process will bring you perspective and insight. As a holistic coach, I have trained in various coaching methodologies that aim to unveil your truths, answers, and dreams. Knowing what you are aiming for is the first step to transforming your life.

 

And what is Career Coaching?

Career Coaching is, technically speaking, a combination of two modalities: coaching and consulting. Through coaching, I can help you with the discovery of your professional possibilities and dreams. With almost 30 years of international corporate Human Resources expertise I am offering a whole menu of tools and services to bring the transformation alive: interview preparation, mock interviews, negotiation training, resume work, networking ideas, LinkedIn profile, cover letter, elevator speech of your career objective, presentation skills, leadership and executive coaching, and more. I can start working with you at any phase of your job search, coaching to find what makes your heart sing or an hour of intensive interview preparation.
