How Coaching Works

Coaching Approach

People are the key to success in any business and any industry. In order to be successful as a leader you must bring out the best in people by managing yourself, your team, and the organization effectively.
I help you gain more insight into your own values and motivations, and support you in linking these to the goals of your organization and the aspirations of the people working with you. Crystal clear priorities and a focus on executing plans accordingly lead almost inevitably to outstanding results.

Coaching Process

Coaching is a process, not a quick-fix. We will have regular one-to-one coaching sessions; in between you will do some work. Typically we will meet 1-3 times a month. Coaching can be done in person, over the phone or via Skype all around the globe.

My Coaching Style

Professional & personal. I ask powerful questions to help you get clarity, step off the hamster wheel and take actions that lead to success in the office and at home.

As one client observed, I am “truly passionate” about each person’s success. Clients appreciate my unique combination of my practical experience as a senior manager with a formal coaching training. In an atmosphere of trust we move toward a solution.

The Coaching Model

A structured yet highly individual process to get you where you want to be.

1. Discovery

This is the foundation for your coaching journey, and you want it to be solid: what is truly important in your personal life and in your career? Who are you? What are your core values, beliefs, strengths and weaknesses?

Powerful questions and optional professional assessments like the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, Tilt 360 degree feedbacks, or the VIA Character Strengths Survey will guide your way.

2. Goals

Based on what matters most to you, we define your desired outcomes and eventually tangible, specific goals with timelines. One declared goal is to enjoy the journey along the way.

3. Plan

We elaborate on your options and evaluate them. Then we conclude and determine the best plan to get you where you want to be.

4. Execution

Coaching is not about attending weekly coaching session. Coaching is action-oriented, and you will execute the plan in between the sessions. I support you almost 24/7 via email or phone to help you deal with possible challenges.

5. Monitor

The final stage is about monitoring your progress and adjusting actions according to changing circumstances. As circumstances change, we will also check if your goals change along the journey.
