GROUP COACHING
Group coaching brings together a group of individuals who are working towards their own goals and share an interest, challenge or are in similar stages of their lives. The group coach creates a safe and brave environment in which all group members can evolve, helps them define individual objectives, harnesses collective wisdom and guides the process with the ultimate goal of having each participant reach their identified growth objectives. The coach also encourages peer coaching to allow members to get curious with each other and develop their coaching skills.
What are the benefits of group coaching?
We learn best when we can share ideas, insights and experiences with other people who are facing similar challenges.
Through the support of others and the coach, we increase our confidence and take consistent action towards our goals.
We experience a safe environment and learn the skills required to build one for those we lead.
We develop coaching skills, not by learning about it, but by practicing as participants.
We are inspired by others to be brave and curious.
It provides the opportunity to network and build new connections.
It is more cost effective compared to 1-on-1 coaching.
Group coaching amplifies teaching and training by creating a space for insights and application of the learning. Contact me if you are interested in exploring how group coaching can augment a training program in your organization.

1-ON-1 COACHING
Coaching is a partnership between the client and the coach with the goal of inspiring the client to maximize their personal and professional potential.​ As an Associate Certified Coach (ACC), I abide by the International Coaching Federation Code of Ethics. Visit the ICF page to learn more about coaching.
​
Coaching assumes the client has all the knowledge, skills, abilities and resources to make things happen.
​
Coaching is about long-term excellence. It leaves the client equipped with the tools to deal with situations that arise after the coaching relationship has ended.
Coaching builds clarity, capacity and effectiveness.
Coaching is for you if:
You feel stuck. You are unsure of what’s next for you.
You’ve tried to break bad habits or build new ones, but have been unsuccessful.
You are in transition or are thinking about an upcoming transition.
You are on the edge or already experiencing burnout.
WHAT VALUE CAN COACHING
BRING TO YOUR LIFE?
INTEGRATED NARRATIVE
360° FEEDBACK AND COACHING
A narrative 360° feedback is an interview-based multi-rater feedback. Unlike the 360° survey feedback, the narrative model allows the interviewer to ask deeper questions about insights and feelings and probe as needed so that the information is richer. This ultimately leads to a more holistic report focused on themes outlining development opportunities.
What’s included:
Exploratory 1 hour meeting to determine scope of work
Review of any existing documentation
30 minutes interviews with feedback providers
Report outlining themes and identifying 1 to 3 development opportunities
Six 1 hour 1-on-1 coaching sessions or a group coaching program to facilitate the leader’s development in the identified areas.
Investment:
Dependent upon the scope of work (number of leaders and feedback providers).
Feedback from previously held events
I think that the training was very comprehensive, interesting, and informative describing the how and why people make decisions.
