Coaching Engagements

Each Coaching Engagement has four elements, whether one-on-one or group, online or in-person. In our first meeting we explore your desire for change, set goals which we’ll continually re-evaluate, then dive into planning how to grow your capabilities and further clarify your action steps. Most of my meetings are online but it is also possible to meet by phone or in person, if suitable. We may connect between our meetings by text or email if you’ve opted for a coaching package. You’ll achieve clarity as to what your goals are and be able to go after them with confidence.

9 Principles of The Adler Approach to Coaching

  • Every human being is creative and self-creating.

  • Every human being is by nature meaning-seeking and meaning-making.

  • Every human being has unique strengths and gifts with which to create a meaningful life.

  • Reflection and questioning are essential for enhanced awareness, which is key in the quest for greater excellence and meaning in working and living.

  • It is a whole that reflects different aspects together on a person: mind, body and soul; like thinking, feeling and dreaming. An effective and meaningful business life and private life requires harmony and synergy between these different sides.

  • As human beings, we always have both the freedom and responsibility to choose.

  • Our perspective on reality - our beliefs, our assumptions, our mental models, our “stories” about ourselves, others and the world in which we play a role - influence our choices and actions.

  • As human beings, we have multi-faceted lives, and we form part of many systems of relationships.

  • The principles outlined above lay the groundwork for intentional action that leads to meaningful results.

Goals Creation Coaching

You’re successful, and ready for a change, either professionally, personally or both.

What to do next?.

What that change might look like will be our first challenge together. We’ll explore your values and your gifts; where they intersect is your place of profound meaning and inspiration. We’ll open up what is possible, then start planning where you want to go with this newfound knowledge. 12 weekly meetings.

Laser Focus Coaching

For people with big plans and big dreams who just need a boost and an accountability partner to get going. Taking the first step can be intimidating, but I’ll be right with you to simplify the way with deep empathy. We’ll dive right into planning how to create the path to your goal. 4 weekly meetings.

Coaching for Gentle Change Over Time

Transitions can be exhilarating and they can also be stressful. Whether you have just received a major promotion at work or your company is pivoting to a different model and you need to work differently, or your career is changing, you need strategies to ground yourself, strengthen your resilience and succeed in the future. Spanning a minimum of 12 weeks we will examine where you are now around your values and beliefs, determine what you need and how to build on the success you have enjoyed, so you can grow your capabilities and enrich your life.

Creativity Coaching

My Creativity Coaching programme came directly from my experiences as a fibre arts teacher, coupled with my training as a coach. The exhilaration I’ve seen in empowered and supported creatives is like lightning running through them. That’s what we’ll find together as we unlock what is holding you back from your most fulfilling work. We will create a customized plan, formed from your current work. In weekly one hour meetings, with exercises and additional support as needed between meetings, we will unlock your very best work.

Career Strategy

I’ve helped hundreds of people plan their next moves after school, after a career that’s no longer satisfying, and when they’re ready for positive change. We’ll put together a programme that is created specifically for your needs. Your personalized plan can include regular check-ins to stay on track, a resume revamp, interview prep, and coaching.

Clarity is our Goal

Go after goals with confidence.
