I
am often asked, “Just what is executive coaching?” “How
will it work in my life?” and “What are the results
I can expect?”
I heard a saying a long time ago that said, “If you always
do what you have always done, you will always get what you have
always gotten.” This is talking about your results. Results
can be defined as how much money you make, your net worth, your
relationships, your health or the size of your business. People
are always trying to change their results without changing the
cause which fundamentally lies within them and not outside of them.
All
of our dreams come in a size too big, so we can grow into them.
That means we have to change how we think, how we feel and how
we act in order to achieve them. We need to do something different.
We need to create a new story. Are you tired of your story? This
is where a personal coach can be very valuable.
Among the many descriptions and different applications of coaching,
the common theme is that coaching is a form of supportive relationship
in which the coach will help the client to move forward to produce
better results. Improved results are a natural desire of everyone.
It is the Spirit within all of us, seeking to express itself without.
Executive Coaching is based on the study of human potential and possibility.
The truth is that each and every person has infinite and unlimited
potential. The focus is on the goals of the client and the role
of the coach is to support development from within, in such a way
that enables the client to learn and achieve the desired results.
The
roles of the coach are many, including but not limited to:
Providing clarity, focus and direction by helping the client
to identify, clarify and move towards goals such as greater
effectiveness, confidence, self-discipline or motivation. The
goal could be improving relationships or health, or gaining
a promotion at work.
-
Facilitating discussion around specific issues, such as stress
at work or dealing with change and to help the client identify
new beliefs and choices or adopt new ways of thinking, feeling
and acting.
-
Providing a sounding board for ideas. This is very important
in the business environment.
-
Assisting the client in learning new skills, such as public
speaking, time management, financial planning, organization
or communicating more effectively.
-
And, possible the number 1 role is providing accountability.
The focus is always on the client, helping them to bring out their
best and maximize their potential. All of the tools and products
offered by Practical Empowerment LLC are designed to focus on the
infinite nature within all human beings and provide the essential
knowledge necessary to help the client recognize and realize this
potential.
If you are not happy with the results in your life, when would
NOW be a good time to do something about it.
THE HEART OF COACHING
We keep it simple and practical, so success is assured. It is
not necessary to have a degree in psychology to help people to
create change and achieve the results they want. All we do is focus
on the two most effective levers of change and those are awareness and responsibility.
Most people do not understand that the results they are getting
are simple a manifestation of their current level of awareness.
We help our clients raise their level of awareness, which often
shows up as new choices in the way they believe, think, feel and
act, so they gain a platform for improved results.
To maximize the benefit from increased awareness the client will
need to go through apparent limitations that appear to hold them
back. We help with this through responsibility. This refers to
the willingness and level of commitment of the client to take action
and by helping empower the client with practical tools to take
action. This might include working with them on their beliefs or
resolve and holding them accountable for their progress.
"The power of executive coaching lies in the fact that
it provides an individual with the most critical ingredient for
extraordinary, consistent success: ongoing support, detailed
action plans, constructive feedback and, most importantly, personal
accountability.
When a person knows that he or she will be regularly reporting
on daily and weekly actions to a coach - someone who is going
to give them unbiased and constructive criticism and unwavering
encouragement all the way to the finish line - that person's
commitment, enthusiasm and belief in the goal increases exponentially.
In essence, a coach is the catalyst that helps an individual
to unstoppable personal achievement. In my opinion, there is
no greater reward!" - Bob Proctor
There's nothing more exciting than to see individuals from all
walks of life create phenomenal shifts in their thinking and results.
More times than not, the person at the end of the program is hardly
recognizable to the person who entered the program.
It's an overwhelming testament to the awesome power and potential
that rests in the human soul ... your human soul.
