Want to know more about the difference between Coaching and Mentoring?
All explained here!
My style is not slick or polished. I am not intimidating or patronising. Instead I show up as a regular human, and someone who really wants to get to know you, what drives you, who you are.
Introvert? Extrovert? Visual? Analytical? YOU are in the centre of the process, not me - I adjust to different personalities very quickly, so I work with what works for you. We will find our way to achieve the best progress that feels right to you.
I’m not going to sell you something you don’t need. We can do 1 session or 5 sessions or 10 sessions, we do what will help you make progress. From experience, 4-6 sessions spread over a few weeks or months offer the best timeframe and momentum to achieve real and lasting results. I would recommend stretching sessions to over 6 months only for very deep work and long-term complex goals.
As a coach, I combine professional expertise with coaching & mentoring excellence.
To achieve the best outcomes for you, I use Collaborative Coaching as my main style - we work as equals and as partners in a safe confidential space.
Using principles of Active Listening (for both the said and the unsaid)
and applying Appreciative and Reflective Enquiry methodologies
will help you thrive, unlock, untangle, and cultivate your growth mindset to achieve a lasting transformation.
With Positive Psychology as my guide, we will work in a strength-based and solution-focused manner, to empower you.
Proven frameworks such as G.O.AL. ensure actionable outcomes.
I also love finding & using a good Metaphor for visualization!
As a person, I love clarity, simplicity, efficiency, and humour. Sprinkled with oodles of heart & empathy.
