Approach:

I have a fundamental belief about my clients which frames how we work together i.e. they already have everything they need to achieve success. My role as coach is to stimulate and challenge my clients to unlock their successful beliefs, skills and behaviour patterns.

Personal coaching is the ultimate personal development vehicle so, after investing in training, my clients find that real performance improvement comes from releasing those skills through personal coaching to build what Daniel Goleman has called Emotional Competencies such as:

- Self-Awareness (Knowing one's internal states, preferences, resources and intuitions)

- Self Regulation (Managing one's internal states, impulses and resources)

- Personal Motivation (Tendencies that guide or facilitate goal achievement)

- Empathy (Being aware of others' feeling, needs and concerns)

Programmes:

All programmes are designed to meet individual client's needs but usually consist of 5 two-hour meetings, scheduled over three months with interim weekly 30-minute telephone sessions and unlimited Email contact. Shadowing is also possible when appropriate to work in 'real time' with the client.
