Coaching

Coaching is a process in which I help you achieve your goals, develop your abilities, and increase your personal or professional effectiveness.
Coaching typically guides you towards your objectives through questions, feedback, and support, and helps you recognize resources, solutions, and opportunities.
This method can be applied, for example, in career development, personal growth, or leadership skills enhancement.

What is coaching based on?

The fundamental premise of coaching is that the client is the expert of their own life. The coach does not tell you what to do but:

• Asks questions: Poses inquiries that help you view the problem from a different perspective.
• Reflects: Provides feedback on what they hear and see, aiding self-reflection.
• Structures: Helps organize your thoughts and create an action plan.
• Coaching focuses on the present and the future: "Where am I now, and where do I want to go?"

When is it advisable to seek a coach?

It can be useful in almost any situation when you are stucked, such as:

• Before making career decisions or changes.
• When establishing work-life balance.
• During leadership skill development.
• In cases of lack of confidence or indecisiveness.
• To develop more effective time management.

What exactly happens during a session?

• Arrival: A few minutes to tune in with each other, or a brief discussion of events since the last session.
• Focus: Listening to the problem.
• The "work": I ask questions, reflect back, sometimes I ask you to draw or do exercises. You think — sometimes accompanied by long pauses. This is the most important part: insights are born in the deep silence.
• Closure and "homework": At the end of the session, you summarize what you will take away, and I often suggest a specific action for the next meeting.

The outcome of the process

At the end of a successful coaching process, the client not only achieves their concrete goal but also develops greater self-awareness, increases consciousness, and takes more responsibility for their own decisions.

In short: Coaching provides a safe space where I guide you with "attentive presence," helping you maximize your potential.

How do you know if a coach is right for you?

• After a session, you feel energized and motivated to act.
• The coach listens more than they speak.
• You find yourself saying things you’ve previously kept hidden.
• You receive uncomfortable but useful questions.
