Performance Coaching

Top athletes realise the value of a performance coach.
Do you?

What is coaching?
• Coaching brings the objectivity and creates that “thinking space” for you to harness and sharpen those skills to solve the challenges you have to face in your own way – just better!
• Coaching isn’t about a soft “counselling” type approach; it is highly practical and very much focused on creating long term solutions for the future.

How does it work?
• We will work with you to develop strategies for achieving your goal and keeping yourself on track and self motivated.
• Most importantly, because every person is different, the solution will be yours and not ours. It will truly match your style and personality.
• Sessions will be tailored to your needs depending on your visions and style, so that you are truly working towards your goals in your own way.

What will it give you?
• A long term solution will be created which is owned and created by you.
• You will be empowered to create your own solutions.
• You will find hidden skills and talents you didn’t know you had.
• Achievement of your vision/goal!

Coaching for Individuals
• Do you have a vision for the future or a personal performance goal?
o Are you frustrated at not being able to get there?
o Does that vision need a little colour or direction?
o Does it feel as though there are barriers at every turn?
o Don’t know where to start or how to keep on track?
• Are you facing a life changing situation or decision such as redundancy or career change?
• Are you about to enter (or re-enter) the world of work or education?
• Want to succeed at interviews?
• Would you like to learn self motivation skills?
• How would it feel to put an end to procrastination?

Through coaching, you will be empowered to develop solutions to all of these situations.

Employers
• Are you on top of every aspect of your business?
o Do you find that you are procrastinating or never getting round to the tasks that will move your business forward?
o Are you struggling with ever increasing demands from clients wanting more and more from you?
o Are you confident that you are in control of your best assets – your people?
o Are your systems and processes working for or against you?

Who should take part?
• All of those who have an impact in taking the business towards the vision.
• It may be that different members of the business are involved at relevant stages. Usual options are:
o 1-2-1 coaching – Getting people to the top of their game using individual and corporate goals, visions and style.
o Team coaching – Whether a new team, new project or simply a desire to perform even better. This is incredibly useful to ensure synergy within the team to achieve a common goal. It ensures “buy in” to the goal and that all skills within the team are being used to full potential. It is also incredibly motivating and a motivated team obviously performs better.
o Change facilitation – Is there a need for the business to change to face new challenges from outside? If so, this brings a whole new set of challenges around culture, motivation and communication. Coaching is ideally suited to help you work your way through any transformation whilst still keeping to your own individual style.
o First 100 day Coaching – The costs of taking on new people is a huge investment and there is often a “bedding in” period when the individual familiarises themselves with a different culture and personalities. Throughout this period, coaching can help maximise your investment and has the added benefit of sending a clear message of value to the individual.
