Coaching has been a relatively new professional discipline to help clients who are not in psychological distress and are able to use their strengths and resources to pursue goals, outcomes and actions that enhance their personal or professional lives.
Followings are adopted from Worldwide Association of Business Coaches (WABC):
Business coaching engages in meaningful communication with individuals in businesses, organizations, institutions or governments, with the goal of promoting success at all levels of the organization by affecting the actions of those individuals.
Personal coaching collaborates with clients in a highly interactive working partnership for the purpose of assisting them on clarifying what they really want from life. Personal coaches are seen as strategic partners and facilitate enhanced life satisfaction.
Personal coach and coachee work on setting more effective personal goals and new strategic actions, and on staying focused and accountable so that the coachee may lead a more successful and satisfying life. The coach and coachee co-design a direction and the coachee commits to taking action to succeed. Accountability in coaching is shared between the coach and the coachee.
Coaching honors the client as the expert in his or her life and work and believe that every client is creative, resourceful, and whole. The coach’s responsibility is to carry out the followings, as per International Coach Federation (ICF), 2012:
- Discover, clarify and align with what the client wants to achieve
- Encourage client self-discovery
- Elicit client-generated solutions and strategies
- Hold the client responsible and accountable
In our coaching service, we will listen and observe to our clients, so as to custom our approaches to individual client’s needs. We seek to elicit solutions, strategies and action plans from our clients as they are creative and with resourceful to develop their solutions and action items to help resolve their own problems. We will offer support to and be accompanying with our clients during the process, to enhance their skills, resources, and creativity which they have already acquired. We help them achieve more and at a faster rate. We will adopt concrete steps to help them:
