Who seeks out a coach?
“Today’s managers, professionals, and entrepreneurs are hiring
coaches to help them with time management, a change in career,
or balancing their work and personal lives. People are looking to
coaches as sounding boards and motivators who can offer a fresh
perspective on career and life problems — but without the
conflicting agendas of a spouse, family member, or even a mentor.”

What is coaching?
Coaching is a time specific and goal oriented approach to help clients overcome the hurdles that may be in the way of achieving their goals. Even the most positive, successful, resourceful and creative people sometimes experience personal, social or professional challenges.
A coach can lend you a fresh perspective, and guided by their education, training, and past experience help you discover your own solutions. Together with your coach, you design your ideal future and determine an action plan, by building on your personal strengths, abilities and resources.
Our lives are perfectly designed for the results we are currently achieving. If we want to make changes, we need to recognize and build on our strengths; dream the future we want for ourselves; and then redesign our lives to achieve the goals that are eluding us. A coach can be your guide, collaborator, and supporter throughout the journey.
