Coaching and Mentoring
For Professionals and Businesses
If stress, demands, responsibilities and high efficiency drive you in your day-to-day life then you are likely to feel exhausted, undervalued, overwhelmed and demotivated from time to time, or perhaps increasingly often.
BURN OUT is not an illness, but a forceful and healthy reminder to STOP, gain some SPACE and allow yourself to TAKE STOCK of what is the best way to live and work and to juggle all your responsibilities.
Feeling stuck, demotivated, unhappy, flat, uninterested or sluggish are common symptoms of burn out. These are often paired with restlessness and sleeplessness, impatience, lost sex drive, low appetite or waves of cravings, head and back aches and a general loss of vision and day-to-day enjoyment of your life.
Stress and anxiety relating to BURN OUT are fast becoming one of the most destructive forces for professionals and businesses with its effects being responsible for over 60% of absenteeism and loss of productivity. This has been confirmed by a number of reports and research studies.
This coaching program for professional development is tailored around professional needs. My therapeutic and creative management expertise enables you to enhance your behaviour, motivation, focus and job satisfaction.

Context

Prior to the first meeting a self assessment/managers assessment questionnaire is completed. It includes data about personality aspects, job requirements, and a development needs proposal.

Follow up
Depending on the coachee’s needs and development the programme is designed to implement the agreed learning outcomes within 3 sessions. Additional services and sessions are arranged in agreement between the funding organisation and the coachee.
An agreed evaluation and program report will be issued at the end of the sessions. Responsibility to discuss remaining issues and further CPD lies with the funding organisation/in-house supervisor and the coachee(s).
Organisational Requirements
The professional coaching sessions identify the roots of unwanted symptoms and behaviours which can restrict team members in developing their full potential in the workplace and in their private lives. It reveals personal conflicts at a deep level and helps the client deal with them consciously in order to achieve a more balanced and confident personality.
The programme allows the client to gain a realistic sense of acceptance and control over their emotions and behaviour and to adopt enjoyable and effective ways in which to communicate and achieve his or her full potential.
