What is Coaching?
Coaching is a one-to-one/one-on-one relationship in which a coach:
- Helps clients to set and reach professional goals.
- Encourages clients to do more than they would have done on their
own.
- Provides the structure and support to accomplish more.
- Helps clients stay tightly focused on the goal.
- A coach is an accountability partner!
Who hires a coach and why?
Many different people hire coaches for a variety of reasons:
- They want more satisfaction or meaning in their lives.

How does coaching work?

you quit immediately if coaching isn't working for you now.
- Many coaches prefer weekly sessions (often 30 minutes) to sustain
progress.

preferably in person).

sessions.

services between sessions. Please call or e-mail for specific information.
