Coaching is a tool that is used to empower individuals and help them reach their goals; it is a structured conversation between the Coach and the Client.
During a coaching session your coach will walk by your side to help you to reach your ultimate goal and aspirations. They will listen to you, ask questions, find out what your challenges are and inspire you to reach that end goal.
You will be encouraged to make decisions and take responsibility for these decisions.

Different coaches use different models to structure their sessions. A popular model is the STEPPA coaching model which focuses on the role of emotions in coaching. It can be used in one-on-one coaching and mentoring conversations which is what we specialise in.
The STEPPA coaching model has six phases: Subject, Target Identification, Emotion, Perception, Plan/Pace, and Action.
This model keeps you moving forward towards your goal. Your coach will be asking you questions, listening to your responses, challenging you whilst all the time remaining non-judgemental regarding the details.

The coaching session will be carried out over the video call on Google Meets.
After the initial Intake Session which will start us talking about you and your aspirations, in each coaching session you will be guided through a 6 point process:
Review the previous session and the actions that you completed
Set the goal for that session
Consider where you are at the present moment with this goal
Consider your options in meeting this goal
Agree on some actions
Summarise the session before completing the session.
Each session will be for 50 minutes. The coach will manage the timing of the session and ensure you gain full value from the session.

Our sessions will be completely confidential. I agree and comply with the Coaching Code of Conduct which you will find attached when we begin working together and only in extreme circumstances will this confidence be breached. This includes the intent to cause harm to yourself or others or criminal acts.

To make sure that your time is being well spent you are expected to come to the session fully prepared and with a goal or aspiration in mind that you would like to work towards.
Preparation is very important for the coaching session so you are encouraged to spend 15 minutes prior to the session taking yourself to an environment where you will not be disturbed, with a drink and feeling refreshed to relax prior to the start of the session. You will also need to ensure that you have a pen and paper to hand and any other items that you may think will be useful such as a diary.
