About Professional Coaching

What is Coaching? Coaching - On the Leading Edge Coaching is the profession on the leading edge of personal and professional development. Coaches are in demand by executives, by entrepreneurs, in corporations and by anyone who wants to excel. People are using coaches to inspire them to go beyond the ordinary, to bring out their best. Coaching is a profession that will ask you to give your very best in making a difference in people's lives. The Co-Active Coaching Model Co-Active Coaching is a unique, proactive alliance with coach and client, working together as equals in meeting the needs of the client. Fervent curiosity is more important than specialized knowledge. The Coaches Training Institute (CTI) holds that all people are naturally creative, resourceful, whole, and completely capable of finding their own answers to whatever challenges they face. In Co-Active Coaching the client has the answers and the job of the Co-Active Coach is to listen and empower rather than inform and advise. The Coach has the questions, rather than the other way around. We also believe that all parts of people's lives - their careers, relationships, recreation, personal growth, and finances, for example - are interrelated and should be addressed as such. We coach the whole person.
Co-Active Coaching: Fulfillment A
Powerful Alliance Designed to Forward and Enhance the Lifelong Process of
Human Learning, Effectiveness, and Fulfillment. Coaching is usually done
over the telephone, which provides convenience for busy individuals. Calls
are 40 minutes each (please not that coaching conversations are much more
intense than normal chat, so 40 minutes is plenty of time) and is usually
done on a weekly basis. It also involves planning and action assignments
during the week. |
