Coaching can mean many things. To BDB, coaching means:
Creating a trusting and collaborative environment in which personal development and performance improvement occur
Having a respectful conversation that focuses on the you
A positive style of relating that can be utilized anywhere, any time
A means of helping you achieve extraordinary performance
A way of being with another individual that promotes reflection, self-discover, and openness to taking more effective actions
The actual act of coaching:
Your coach will inquire, encourage, advise, challenge, make requests, and listen for your truth so that you remain aligned with who you are, your goals, your values, and your vision. A coach stands for you, not just your goals.
Coaching involves conversations. Sometimes direct suggestions, questions about a tone of voice, or even positive pressure-free assignments. |
