Coaching
Coaching helps develop leadership competences, change unwelcoming behaviour, make informed decisions, achieve goals, and understand and know oneself and one’s needs.
Coach does not provide advice and directions. Coach asks questions that help clients find answers and solutions independently. Client is an expert of their situation and knows best how to solve it.
Coach needs to help the client see yet unnoticed aspects of a situation and understand them more thoroughly to make informed decisions and act accordingly. Coaching is also a process of knowing oneself, where a client discovers regularities and causes of their behaviour from a different angle. It creates an opportunity to change one’s behaviour and develop.
Coaching is a development approach that helps:
- develop leadership competencies
- improve teamwork
- understand the vision, mission and values of an organisation and individual, and implement them in day-to-day processes
- solve various work organisation, communication and relationship situations
- achieve organisational and individual work goals
- overcome signs of burnout, efficiently plan one’s time and learn to delegate
- purposefully plan and develop career
- onboarding
During a coaching session a coach:
- helps the client understand what they want to achieve and what is necessary to achieve the goal;
- supports a client in developing competences, transforming behaviour, decision-making and developing a plan to fulfil the goal;
- strengthens and helps a client to create and maintain adequate self-esteem and a positive attitude in situations where a client experiences complex changes, high levels of stress, doubts, emotional lows, and meets new opportunities and choices;
- guides a client towards a goal, ensures that the steps for achieving the goal are realistic, and helps the client to be innovative and challenge old behavioural and thinking habits to improve individual efficiency;
- does not give advice. A coach asks questions so that a client may find solutions on their own, because only the client understands their situation the best. Coach has to create awareness of all situational aspects, promote ideas about the possible solutions and achieve planning of specific activities.
