Business & Personal Coaching
Business, Personal & Career Coaching
An effective coach blends skills of questioning, listening, observation and feedback to create conversation rich in insight and learning. The coachee experiences a focus and attention on their own circumstances that helps them develop greater awareness and understanding. In addition, they’ll gain fresh ways to resolve issues, produce better results and achieve their goals more effectively.
Typical benefits experienced from coaching include:
- Improved sense of direction & focus
- Accelerated learning around a distinct topic
- Improved performance in a particular area
- Increased knowledge of self / self-awareness
- Improved personal effectiveness
- Increased motivation or sense of personal engagement
- Increased resourcefulness / resilience, e.g. ability to handle change.

Achieving Results Through Better Relationships
Understanding Core Strengths
Relationships are connections built on a foundation of shared experiences and future expectations. Core Strengths Relationship Intelligence helps teams to identify past misperceptions, apply the right approach to the moment, and co-create a better way to work together in the future.
We will encourage greater self-awareness, through the application of The Strength Deployment Inventory 2.0 (SDI 2.0) which examines motives, behaviours, and strengths.
Using this and other appropriate diagnostic tools as the foundation for understanding, we work with individuals and teams to facilitate feedback, enable more clear and accurate understanding of others and improve relationships.
