Why do you need development coaching?

Before we get into the "why" of why you need a coach, let's look at the "what" in what is a coach.

Quite simply a coach is a qualified professional who is trained to work alongside you to achieve what you want in life. Whether it be a career change or a goal you want to achieve, a coach's main aim is to help you improve your life and to get you from where you are to where you want to be. I know it all sounds too good to be true, but a coach does it by helping you start small and work your way to change rather than letting you bite off more than you can chew.

So what can you expect from me as a coach? Well, I am:

• solutions-focused: I'm trained to get you answers, not add to the problem
• results-orientated: I want to see things happen!
• focused on growth: I want to see you expand in whatever area of your life you choose to work with us on
• judgement-free: we can chat about anything. I've seen it all.

So now let's get onto the good stuff – why do you need a coach?

You need a coach because you are your biggest investment. If you aren't looking after yourself and working towards making your life more fulfilling, then what is this thing called life all about really? You need to be investing in yourself, especially if you want to be a better leader, worker, parent or person. 

Coaching will help you improve performance in whatever area of your life you choose to work with your coach on. It will motivate and empower you so you're able to excel. It helps you achieve the goals you set for yourself, and sometimes even make you realise you had goals you hadn't even thought of! Coaching will help you have more clarity and focus. And it will give you more job and life satisfaction. 

It's not just us who are saying this – research has shown that there are numerous benefits to coaching for individuals and organisations. Just read this: "The benefits of coaching are many; 80% of people who receive coaching report increased self-confidence, and over 70% benefit from improved work performance, relationships, and more effective communication skills. 86% of companies report that they recouped their investment on coaching and more."
