📣  PROGRAM’S STRUCTURE: The Journey

Most people find that one coaching session alone will bring them new enlightenment, clarity and inspiration. However, although a single session is likely to leave you highly motivated, old habits die hard, and without further support, the initial enthusiasm may fade and everything will return to the way it was before. That is the reason I coach according to a structure. Long-term coaching relationships ensures that:

➤ The groundwork is laid for effective action;

➤ Plans can be worked out and followed through;

➤ You are supported through unexpected challenges;

➤ Old habits are permanently replaced by new ones.

It takes around six weeks to break an old habit and another six to adopt a new one. Therefore an ideal length of time for a coaching series is three months, or possibly six if sessions are less frequent than once a week. The time between the sessions offered in this program, will depend by the amount of time you have available and what issues are being addressed.

📣 PERFORMANCE ORIENTED PROGRAM

Imagine having the support of someone who champions your success as much as you do, someone who will ask great questions to encourage you to tap into your own well of resources, to find the solutions you didn’t know you had; someone who will challenge you to expand your horizons and see things from different perspectives and viewpoints. That is what this program is all about.

I help people get clarity about what they want to achieve and support them in getting there. I am trained in a technique of asking questions which will help people see things more clearly, to focus their minds on the matter in hand, so that they can get a breakthrough and move forward.

✅ In this program I use three main frameworks/models which:

📚 EQ Model (Emotional Intelligence) – a core foundation and the ultimate outcome of this program:

A person’s EQ is a measure of their interpersonal and communication skills. EQ is an abbreviation for ’emotional quotient’. Emotional intelligence is also about the ability to reason and solve problems based on the emotions we experience. An emotionally intelligent person is aware of emotions in him/herself and others and uses reason to identify, understand, and deal with the emotions effectively.

📚 GROW Model – a specific model used as steps for efficiency in this program:

The GROW coaching model consists of four steps to help you plan the journey in this coaching program. You start with the map: where are you going (Goal) and where are you coming from (Reality)? It then charts the different routes and modes of transportation (Options). At last, it helps you pick the option that suits you best while still considering the obstacles on the way. You then chart out the process and make sure that your motivation for the trip is maximized. GROW: ➯ Goal ➯ Reality ➯ Options ➯ Will

📚 EXACT Model – is a coaching approach to improve on the SMART Model for goal setting:

The EXACT model takes you through a process which helps you to identify objectives which are congruent with your own values and performance style. EXACT: ➯ EXciting (positive, inspiring) ➯ Assessable (measurable) ➯ Challenging (Stretching) ➯ Time-framed (within a deadline)

📣 EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING AS COACHING STYLE

➤ Are you an individual interested in reaching your full potential? 

Coaching can inspire and motivate people to learn, change, and be effective leaders, among other roles in life. This program can support you as you improve your efficiency at work and create transformation in your life through Experiential Learning.  Through the program, you will learning about your own approach to learning and life, and build learning flexibility. All change involves learning. Since the goal of coaching is to support positive change, you can benefit from understanding the process of learning and your approach to using it. In addition, you will be able to find new strategies to connect with people whose learning style preferences may be different from your own.

✅ What is Experiential Learning?

David A. Kolb, PhD, developed an ideal learning process (the learning cycle) and nine ways of approaching it (the learning styles). Experiential learning gives people the tools to take charge of their lives. It provides a holistic approach to living and a process for adaptation and change.

Experiential Learning describes the ideal process of learning, invites you to understand yourself as a learner and empowers you to take charge of your own learning and development. The way you learn is the way you approach life, in general. It is also the way you solve problems, make decisions and approach challenges in life. Learning occurs in any setting and continues throughout your life. The Experiential Learning process supports performance improvement, learning and development.

✅ The steps in the nine-step process of Full Cycle Learning are:

🎯 INITIATING: We start with initiating new courses of action ➺ Focus on new opportunities.

🎯 EXPERIENCING: Be present and deeply involved ➺ Focus on emotions and being in relationships.

🎯 IMAGINING: Reflect on possible options and solutions ➺ Focus on including and helping.

🎯 REFLECTING: Connect experiences and ideas, consider many perspectives ➺ Focus on observing.

🎯 ANALYZING: Organize ideas through reflection to create a plan ➺ Focus on data.

🎯 THINKING: Use disciplined logic to generalize and account for biases ➺ Focus on rational thought.

🎯 DECIDING: Commit to a actions to solve a problem or achieve practical results ➺ Focus on one goal.

🎯 ACTING: Take assertive directed action to accomplish the goal ➺ Focus on results.

🎯 BALANCING: Recognize the dynamic environment to prioritize when in demand ➺ Focus on adaptability.

📣  EVERY SITUATION WE ENCOUNTER IS LEARNING

You will raise awareness of the impact of your own learning style preference on your job  and gain insights into how Experiential Learning can empower you to improve performance, learn, and develop long after the coaching engagement has been completed. This online program is designed as a life-learning experience with interactive discussion sessions, real-life learning situations, individual coaching, and assessments.
