Coaching is a collaborative relationship
that uses an adult learning framework to help the coachee
identify and remove any interference that limits the expression
of their full potential. Performance is improved through
an integral view of what interferes with potential. The
coaching relationship is framed within an adult learning
cycle that encourages a systematic, solution-focused process
of:
- setting goals,
- taking actions that ensure sustainable behaviour change, and
- reflecting to make sense of these changes in terms of new understandings, initial individual goals, desired organisational results and long-term, personal potential.
The coaching process aims to improve the quality of the coachee's working and personal life and thereby contribute to organisational effectiveness.
The Institute focuses on a very practical and experiential approach to coaching. We recognise that the essential qualities of an executive coach are the ability to;
- understand the process of executive coaching and the importance of the relationship,
- understand and value the ethical issues of executive coaching,
- manage their own physical, mental, and emotional state,
- listen and to ask powerful questions,
- assess the client's desire for change,
- build trust and balance the dichotomy between trust and challenge,
- hold the coachee to their commitment to action.
All coaches who work for the Institute are trained by us and take part in our ongoing professional development program and are supervised regularly.
