Coaching, coaching, coaching! Does it seem that today everywhere
you turn someone is speaking about coaching? For some it begs the
question of, “what in the world is this thing called coaching?”
Clearly there is a wide spectrum of methodologies and practices
in the market place today. In our view, we would not define coaching
as a process of labeling, judging others or a “telling”
of what someone should or should not do. That appears to be a treatment
of the "symptoms" and not the "cause." Being
in the business of executive coaching for as long as we have, we
are very aware that there are individuals and firms providing services
termed as “coaching” that are outside of our definition,
methodologies and commitment to sustained and spaced learning and
growth. |

Part of the
uniqueness we bring, in the back drop of all of our executive coaching
programs and services, is the way we go about partnering and then
sharing in the experience of taking a very close look at self imposed
barriers, conclusions and positions that often limit or shape possibility
for an individual or team we are working with. We firmly believe
that in a true executive coaching process the first step is to determine
together what barriers, conclusions and positions are in place.
In our executive coaching processes we do this through a facilitated
self discovery process using distinctions. Our process of using
distinctions is best defined as that of calling forth to the presence
of ones’ thinking something that may have always been at play
and yet may not have ever been seen. Once truly seen, and only then,
is access to choice available which presents the opportunity for
true empowerment. Although “seeing it” is important
it begs the question from most of, “then what?” At that
critical juncture what is done or not done by the individual or
team and the executive coach will clearly cause the outcomes. This
is where our experience, tools, exercises and expertise create the
pathway and provide the framework necessary in order to have true
intentions become realized.
