How to Get the Most Out of Your Coaching

 

It is important to both of us for you to benefit greatly from the time we spend together each week, and also during the time between our calls.  This brief explanatory template is used to maximize our mutual understanding of where you are and where you want to go, and to help you to know what to expect from Coaching.

 

Success Action #1:  Make a list of What You Value, What You Love, and What You Really          

                                                 Want in Life.

 

Coaching works best when you have clear goals that are in alignment with your needs and values.  If you’re unclear about any of these, we can discuss them during our sessions.

 

Success Action #2:  Get to Know Yourself in New Ways.

 

Working with a Coach is a healthy way to grow.  Most Clients hire a Coach to accomplish several specific goals.  Coaching is all about being and expressing your genuine best self.  Don’t be surprised if you discover new parts of your self, or if you find your goals adjusting themselves, to who you really are, and who you want to be.  This discovery process is natural; so you needn’t rush it, just realize it will likely happen.  Accelerated personal and professional growth is the hallmark of being coached.

 

Success Action #3:  Your Coach is here to Fully Participate in Our Partnership.

 

It is Your Coach’s job to:

 

Listen for many things, such as your assumptions, perceptions and conclusions; what you are saying in your self talk; evidence of emotional pain the blocks action; what motivates you and excites you; self doubt, growth you may not be giving your self credit for, resources you already have available but may not yet recognize, and much more.

 

Question – What are your goals; what do you love; what may be frightening you that limits you from taking action; are being present time oriented; are you willing to trust your self, have courage, and take action; how do you see your self moving forward in this goal; what inner work must you do to dare to be your real self consistently in your life, how can we best support you now, and much more.

 

Design – Your Coach assists you in defining your personal and a professional goal in alignment with your needs, values and your genuine self, assists you in creating strategies, discovering resources, and taking action confidently.

 

Forwarding Action – A Coach is an equal, not an expert or an authority.  A Coach makes requests, offers suggestions, advice and options, and shares intuitive hunches, which may 

be helpful in facilitating your ongoing forward momentum.  Your Coach is an equal partner in designing your action plan.  When your Coach makes a recommendation for action, you always have the power to stop and renegotiate your action strategy.

 

Strengthening and Heartening – It is your Coach’s job to cheer you on; to see your strengths and to tell you about them; to help you to overcome self doubt, and accept your self as the person of strength and competence that your really are; to be the emotional bridge who holds the space for you to dare to risk and change.

 

Dream Stretcher – It is your Coach’s job to help you stretch yourself toward your dreams, to think bigger, to go farther, to be committed, to grow and achieve more than you’ve dared to imagine.

 

Staying in Present Time – Your Coach will help you remember that our power is always in the present moment.  In order to be in the present, it is necessary to have a certain detachment to outcome.  Rather than attach fixedly to a specific outcome we desire, it is more effective to remain flexible and open, while we are making progress.  In present time, we always have the power of choice.

 

Telling the Truth – It is your Coach’s job to tell the truth 100% of the time, from a viewpoint of compassion and an intention of your well being.  Occasionally, this may take the form of confronting you with a truth that you may prefer to avoid or deny.  Your Coach offers you a mirror that has no judgments attached.

 

Developing Self Trust – Your Coach assists you in seeing your self as a resource you can trust and depend on; knowing that you can trust your self, and reach out to others in collaboration is strength.  Becoming dependent on your Coach is not what Coaching is about.

 

Success Action #4:  It is Your Job to Participate Fully in Our Partnership

 

Make A Commitment – Fully invest your self in this opportunity for accelerated growth and accomplishment.  Show up for your coaching call or session on time and fully be there, ready to solve, reflect, strategize, and celebrate.

 

Fee – Keep our partnership clear of undue distractions by paying your coaching fee on time, as agreed.

 

Requested Information – Allow yourself enough time to prepare before each session, allowing time for thought and reflection.  Send all request information to Your Coach in plenty of time so that the Coach also has time reflect.

 

Self Nurture – We all are more energetic, able to cope, and are inspired when our own needs are being met.  Make a commitment to nurturing your self and your well being beginning with your first Coaching session and on out into your future.  If you want to work on expanding your ideas of self-nurture and getting your need met, let’s discuss it.

 

Reduce Clutter – Be willing to reduce the clutter in your environment and in your life that stands in the way of your progress toward your life and your self, as you would like them to be; Feng Shui advice is also available.  Though change can sometimes feel challenging, your Coach is here to help you smooth the way.

 

Be Honest with Your Self and Your Coach 100% of the time.  The Coach wants to hear everything you wish to express.  Compliments and referrals are happily received, and please, if you ever feel any dissatisfaction in your coaching, speak up.  This will keep the partnership strong.  Partners communicate with respect as equals and trust each other’s intentions of well being toward one another.  All of your input is welcome.

 

Take Action - When you agree to take action, do your best to complete it.  If you are having problems that are holding you back, feel free to email me and we can discuss it via email or in a brief coaching call during the week.
