The word coach is a well known word in sport, where coaches help athletes and teams to develop and perform. Nowadays a coach is also a professional who works with individuals and teams to develop their skills, increase performance, attain their goals. This process is called coaching.
All of us in our private or professional life have issues to sort out, decisions we keep procrastinating, changes we have to face up to.
A coach helps us to fine-tune, set our real goals and act in a new successful way. Coaching may not be essential, but very useful.
Coaching is a process that aims at helping people to become aware of their full potential and use it to progress and achieve personal goals. Coaching is a learning process that involves a coach and a client (coachee).
Through contextual listening, powerful questions, and feedback, coaching helps to acquire the necessary awareness that let people leave their comfort zone. They explore themselves, discover new possibilities to reinforce change and create their own success.
Working with a coach means sharing a relationship based on trust, confidentiality and respect. The client works with a professional who does not teach, nor gives advice or solutions, but somebody who offers the tools to better understand the present and move forward.
It is not therapy, in fact it does not intend to remove psychological illness, does not focus on the past but on the future working on the base of client’s values and expressed interests for realistic results. It is a process that empowers, reinforces personal skills for new challenges.
Client willingness to experience challenges is essential and the key to success.
