Performance Coaching Is it Worth Investing In?
Performance Coaching, is it really worth it when you can get more people through a training course? It’s a question I am often asked. Answer: It depends
Why? ....It depends on
The individual Coachee
The desired Outcome
Skills of the Coach

There has been a massive growth in the coaching market
Even the likes of Oprah and Jack Canfield have their own coach
What’s good about Coaching
It focuses on the future and what’s possible

What is Coaching?
A Definition
There are many and some seem misleading
as they talk about training and mentoring. I like this one “Coaching is about the coach working with the coachee to deliver possibilities unheard of alone”
How does a Coachee realise what’s possible
The coach and coachee build a relationship
As a result the coachee realises that the obstacles they see in their path to success have been put there by themselves. In their own head
How does a Coachee realise what’s possible
By the coach asking great questions, the coachee can build awareness and new skills to realise what’s possible for them
Of course then, it’s all about the coachee taking action....massive action
Taking Action
I am reminded of the old story of “Teach man to fish rather than give him the fish on a plate”
