What are the benefits ?

All of us are having to learn how to navigate change in a world of increasing uncertainty. We know that embracing change will make us personally AND professionally much more effective, but: What kind of change and in what direction ?

To overcome the inevitable obstacles to change you will benefit greatly from having a Change Coach - someone who can bring insights and an unshakeable commitment to your personal and professional development. A good Change Coach will enhance your ability to learn fast and smooth out, even enhance, your personal journey of growth and transformation.

		Be accessible and dedicated to your success
		Ask powerful questions and listen with empathy
		Offer insights, alternatives and new perspectives
		Recognise and celebrate your successes
		Clarify and expand your vision of what's possible

WHAT COULD THE BENEFITS BE FOR YOU PERSONALLY ?
Coaching you to make change happen I will help you think through and determine your life/work goals and deal with any changes you want to make. I offer you more than just conversation, such as new insights, the ability to observe yourself, read up on given topics, undertake homework exercises or small assignments. It is these inter-session activities that will build your commitment to the learning process and help you reach, even surpass, the goals you set for yourself.

From a personal benefits point of view you may want to:

		Find a healthier work like balance
		Be more effective
		Have more energy and zest for life
		Simplify your life
		Make a difference
		Discover more meaning and purpose
		Set personal growth goals
		Create something new
		Get out of a rut and into a more positive situation

WHAT COULD THE BENEFITS BE FOR YOU PROFESSIONALLY ?
I will work with you, helping you to think through and successfully implement your work related goals. I will challenge you to come up with your own answers rather than directing or advising you. Our conversations will be solution (not problem) focused. We wont be trying to find out what's wrong and trying to fix it - that's the job of a Counselor. You will be future focused.

From a professional point of view you may want to:

		Manage increasingly complex and demanding events
		Deepen interpersonal relations/networks of relationships
		Be better organised and manage time better
		Increase overall performance as a team leader
		Develop or experiment with new ways of working
		Keep focused on the bigger picture
		Build on strengths and reducing weaknesses
		Set better goals and attain them faster
		Give and get more honest feedback

WHAT COULD I DO FOR YOUR ORGANISATION ?
Managers are under more and more pressure to get ever better results from their teams. This requires people skills, yet promotion is often based on professional, technical or job specific expertise. As a result, you may know how to get the job done, but you may not have the interpersonal or leadership skills needed to make change happen through others.

I offer individual and group coaching services for managers. I also offer a portfollio of 90 minute workshops on over a dozen core coaching skills. These Coaching Gyms are very popular with corporate clients, are extremely cost effective and deliver immediate results.

A mountain of research is now showing that managers who practice coaching skills produce significantly better results. People work more productively for longer and contribute in many other ways as well. The organisation reaps the benefits with reduced sickness, staff turnover, increased performance and improved customer service.

The Public Personnel Management Journal - "when training is combined with coaching, individuals increased productivity by an average of 88%, compared to 22% with training alone."

The Training & Development Journal - "However excellent your classroom training, without good coaching you are probably wasting 87p out of every £1 you spend."

The Hay Group - "More than 60% of organisations now offer coaching to middle and senior managers. The study demonstrated a return on investment to be 5 times better than formal courses in developing successful leaders."

As a Professional Change Coach I can work closely with your senior managers and run bespoke workshops for your management teams, team leaders and supervisory staff.

The benefits realised from my coaching in the workplace include:

		A focus on solutions not problems
		People inspired to achieve their best
		Communication channels opened up
		Reduced conflict between staff
		Increased staff retention
		Better results delivered with less effort
