coaching model

A coach challenges the client to take the time to find out what is truly important. Having a coach is like having a partner whose highest priority is your success.

It provides accountability. There is an underlying belief we must pay a price to achieve something eg paying with health issues or strained relationships.

Many are tired of just getting by in life or in their career. People are less willing to settle and are more willing to take a risk.

In todays economic environment people have the time and resources to invest in themselves. People have discovered the myth of the 'work / life divide'. Successful business people and managers make time for activities that enrich and inspire.

The model can be used as a marketing tool - can be displayed on a website and other promotional material.

Coaching is a hybrid field with roots in a range of philosophies and professional practices. Some models are:

1. LQAF - Listen, question, acknowledge and feedback.
2. Taking action coaching model - Goal setting, planning, support and acknowledgement
3. 4D coaching model - dialogue, decision, doing, digesting

Once you've completed a model check:
1. Does this model depict what is happening during our coaching sessions?
2. Does this model help clarify what happens during the coaching session?
3. Does it help to have a model that depicts what happens during the session?

Your model is an organic document.
