Coaching with me

How I like to coach

The coaching style and structure I use is determined by the individuals and /or group participants specfic needs such as:

• Solution-focused -- Straighforward, focus on solutions and highly future focused.
• Direct Coaching -  straightforward
• Empowerment - self-concept and motivation.

The program 1:1 session & group styles vary:

• Open Coaching Group -  individuals who are already advanced in their skills. 
• General Coaching Group - Participants have similar goals
• Structured Coaching Group - Content in group is the main purpose of the group.

I perferred to teach a structured coaching group program. The entire group works on the same goals (usually at the same pace) through a concrete, structured, step-by-step program designed
to achieve specific results.
