what is coaching

Coaching is a powerful tool for elevating leadership development to a deeper, sustained level. The coaching dynamic involves a collaborative partnership between the coach and the coachee. Together, they establish shared objectives and develop specific action plans aimed at achieving these goals. The coachee's primary responsibility is to implement these plans, while the coach facilitates the overall process through guidance, keeping the coachee on track and serving as a sounding board for brainstorming and self-reflection.
Coaching is effective due to three key cognitive and behavioural mechanisms. Firstly, it provides a safe and confidential space for discussing personal and professional matters, fostering a supportive relationship. Secondly, the act of setting self-aligned, personally meaningful goals and actively working toward them can boost well-being and cultivate self-confidence. Thirdly, engaging systematically in these processes while receiving support to overcome setbacks can enhance resilience and improve self-regulation skills. As a result, individuals undergoing coaching often experience increased self-assurance and job satisfaction, improved overall well-being and become better equipped to handle change and workplace challenges.
Leadership Coaching is a personalised developmental process where a coach works with emerging leaders, first and mid-level leaders and business unit leaders to enhance their leadership skills, self-awareness, and overall effectiveness in guiding and motivating a team or organisation.
Executive Coaching is a specialised form of coaching focused on C-suite, directors and senior executives, aimed at helping them address specific professional challenges, refine strategic thinking, and achieve their organisational and career goals through one-on-one guidance and support.
