Coaching Corner

Exclusive coaching for business leaders – entrepreneurs, C-suite executives or heads of family businesses.

We use coaching techniques to help you set your goals, make better decisions
and achieve focused growth.

Coaching borrows from both consulting and from counselling but is neither. As your coach, we do not answer your questions and do not give any advice. Instead, we are the ones asking difficult questions and you are required to introspect and respond to the question. There is no right or wrong answer – the answer will depend on your unique journey through life and as coach, our job is to help you find the answer that is right for you.

We focus on leadership coaching; this is a hands-on, one-on-one process between a high-potential individual and a coach that typically lasts between 2 and 6 months. The duration depends on the type of intervention needed and consists of face-to-face or phone-based developmental discussions aimed at performance improvement or at developing competencies.

The coaching is meant to be practical and goal-focused and may concentrate on further leveraging existing strengths, avoiding professional derailers or working through issues like prioritisation and the fear of missing opportunities.

COACHING IS FOR YOU IF YOU FIND YOURSELF ASKING QUESTIONS LIKE THESE:

i. I want to take my business to the next level but I don’t know how.
ii. I need to manage my time better.
iii. I need to learn to delegate and stop micro-managing.
iv. How can I be a more effective leader?
v. I want to build an organisation that is self-sufficient and can survive without me.
vi. My anger is causing problems at work. How can I manage my temper?
vii. I want to communicate better with my team.

COACHING WILL NOT HELP YOU:

i. Make your boss change.
ii. Make your employees more responsible.
iii. Beat that competitor.

You may ask why. It’s simple: these results are outside your control!

How does coaching help?

We start with the best intentions, but life gets in the way and we don’t have time to
actually think.

Coaching filters the noise away and helps you think better. Coaching clears the fog and puts things in perspective.
Coaching shows you the mirror.

We suggest taking a trial session and deciding the value of coaching for yourself.

With the help of coaching, you can:

  • MAKE YOUR JOURNEY TRULY PERSONAL

    All of us have limited time and need to harness the most out of the time available to achieve maximum personal growth.

  • CREATE YOUR OWN DESTINY

    Our ideas are like our children; we love our own the most. Which one would you be more likely to act on: (A) you realising on your own, through some deep introspection, what you need to do to solve a problem or (B) an advisor telling you what you need to do?

  • DEVELOP ACCOUNTABILITY

    What are the odds that you will actually do something if you only make a mental note about it? If you say you are going to do something, your coach will follow up with you, and if an agreed action is not followed through, they will want a reason why.

  • DISCOVER THE TRUTH TO SET YOU FREE

    At the heart of any effective coaching intervention lies a relationship of trust, honesty and constructive feedback between the coach and you. A coach provides feedback, good or bad, that you may not get from others you work with. Unless people have a realistic view of themselves, especially their strengths and weaknesses, they will stay stuck and won’t be able to move to a higher plane of thinking and truly realize their potential.

  • GAIN FOCUS

    The coach will support you in developing your own master plan and help you clearly map out your journey. They will also keep you focused as you work through each stage of that journey.

  • BUILD MOTIVATION

    The coach will help you stay motivated and grounded through the tough times.
