Coaching is your opportunity for personalised development.
A coach will work with you to define your skills, goals and career aspirations, and co-create a plan to achieve them.
Coaching is unlocking people’s potential to maximize their own performance. It is more often helping them to learn rather than teaching them."
~ John Whitmore, author and founder of the GROW model of coaching, Coaching for Performance, 2010
This is the 'traditional' type of coaching, where you work 1:1 with your coach on your personal development goals.
There's so many names - career coaching, executive coaching, professional coaching... we do it all! But in essence, this is the engagement type that's tailored just for you.
Team coaching is where you join coaching together in your work group, usually to work on communication and collaboration as a unit.
Group coaching is where you join together with other individuals, who share a similar development need as you, for example, first time managers.
In both situations, you can expect a maximum of 1 coach to 6 colleagues ratio, to make sure you're still getting the air time you deserve in your sessions!
When we're starting a new job, whether you're new to a company or changing roles internally, the aim of the game is to hit the ground running!
Coaching for this specific need can sometimes be called 'transition coaching' and is aimed at the 30-60-90 day goals of your onboarding. You'll work on goals and get support to short-cut your time to productivity and satisfaction in your new position.

Nobody wants to show you the hours and hours of becoming. They’d rather show you the highlight of what they’ve become.
~ Angela Duckworth, Grit: Passion, Perseverance, and the Science of Success, 2016
Incremental change is better than ambitious failure… success feeds on itself.
~Tony Schwartz (as cited in Tal Ben-Shahar, Happier: Learn the Secrets to Daily Joy and Lasting Fulfillment, 2007)
A coach hyper-personalizes your development plan
While training is great for gaining knowledge, and mentors are great for network and advice, a coach is there to listen to your personal motivations, support your goal setting process, then use coaching techniques to ensure you achieve them.
In short, coaching is all about YOU. You take it in the direction you choose for your career.

We need to accept that we won’t always make the right decisions, that we’ll screw up royally sometimes – understanding that failures are not the opposite of success – it’s part of success.
