How does coaching work for the client?
Coaching
Coaching has the power of developing talents and organizations at all levels. And that is the reason why Startups, Big Companies, Entrepreneurs and Executives are using Coaching much more often.
Coaching is
- A chat (or several ones) between 2 parts: coach & customer (individual or team).
- 100% confidential and under the ICF ethic’s code (International Coach Federation).
- where my job is to listen to you & do the right questions (the ones you will never do it to you)
- and finally, you can have several points of view, that will be the base to take your decisions and to achieve your objectives.
In summary: coaching gives you a window of time to think in ourselves, define our objectives & elaborate plans to achieve them.
How does Coaching work for the customer?
- Individual or Team Sessions.
- The sessions could be face-to-face or telematic.
- It can be an isolated session, or a process that includes several ones. It depends on the objectives that the customer wants to achieve.
- The sessions can have several contents: personal, professional, spiritual, etc. Customer chooses.
- Even if the customer wants that the Coach change its hat, to a Mentor one, it’s also possible. “This is more common in Business & Career context”.
In summary: the content and objectives are fixed by the customer; the Coach guides the process..
TEAM COACHING:
The essence is the same as for individual Coaching, but it is important to remark some specificities:
- A Team is not a group of people, it has its own identity.
- The objective should be a Team Objective.
- The Coach focus is on group behaviour and to lead them to success.
And usually the team coaching has 3 phases, although it is always flexible to answer the customer demand:
Team Coaching Phases
1. Motivational Phase
where it is defined the commitment, the mission and team roles
2. Development Phase
where the Teamwork is done, and the Coach mission is to lead the Team to achieve its objective.
3. Closing Phase:
Closing & learning moment.
Some examples of topics that can be worked in Team Coaching:
- Strategic Plans with Executive Teams.
- Business Plans with transversal Teams of different areas.
- Project Management
- Ways of working definition for a department, company, or different companies.
- To build a company vision,
- To Work on a Brand positioning
- To make plans to potentiate the Organization Talent.
In summary: any Project that needs the collaboration of a team for a unique objective.
