Life
coaching with The Mind Works
Coaching is a modern and rapidly growing method for
helping others to improve, develop, learn new skills, find personal success, achieve aims
and manage life change and personal challenges. Life coaching is effective for all
situations, whether in personal life, career, sales or corporate and business life. Life
coaching develops rather than imposes.
It reflects rather than directs. Coaching
at The Mind Works is reactive, flexible and enabling, not prescriptive or instructional.
Coaching is non-judgmental, not judgmental. At The Mind Works we help people to develop and
grow in a variety of areas covering: personal coaching and life coaching, coaching for
life-change, parenting; self-fulfillment and self-discovery; career coaching for advancement
and job choices; leadership and management coaching; coaching for sales and business
success; executive coaching for corporate performance and director development.
class="head">The Mind Works Coaching Process
The Mind Works coaching process is
about getting the very best out of someone and enabling them to make decisions that will
improve their life. The Mind Works are hired for very many different and diverse reasons,
for example: to help clients climb the career ladder faster; to feel more fulfilled at work;
to improve relationships with family and partners; to learn parenting skills that benefit
both the child and parent; to gain a spiritual meaning to life, or a desire to 'get
sorted'.
My job is not to go over old ground, be past-orientated or to
force-feed information, but to work with clients to help you find the answers your selves.
Also, when a person experiences being coached, their motivation comes from
working with Terry Doherty, an upbeat, positive role model. In this way coaching is a unique
way of developing people.
How The Mind Works typically operates
Interestingly, most life coaching is conducted on the telephone. You don?t even
have to meet Terry Doherty. For several reasons coaching is just as effective over the
telephone as it is face-to-face. In fact, many clients prefer to speak over the telephone.
This makes the process very convenient for both Terry Doherty and client, and it offers
greater flexibility for people with a busy lifestyle. Coaching using the telephone offers
other obvious advantages:
- coaching can be conducted
wherever coach and client happen to be - anywhere in the world
- there's no
travelling time or cost involved
- since little preparation needs to be done,
telephone coaching sessions can be arranged with minimum prior notice
A
coaching session is typically thirty minutes and rarely longer than an hour unless the
session is face to face.
At the Mind Works we look to understand your needs which
are pivotal to the coach-client relationship, and a prerequisite for avoiding difficulties
in the relationship and coaching support process.
The Mind Works Coaching is
centered on you - the client; we are not hear to advise but be supportive. Our role, and the
coaching concept, is to help you find your own solutions, not to have you follow an
advisor's recommendations or suggestions. This is a fundamental principle.
class="head">Coaching Applications
The reputation of coaching is growing along
with the use of the concept - and coaching is becoming increasingly associated with modern
recognised requirements for success in life, work, business and organizations, notably the
qualities of excellence, integrity, humanity and facilitative learning (as distinct from
traditional 'training')
The Mind Works coaching has grown to a broad range of
applications from the following areas:
- spiritual
coaching
- parent coaching
- corporate coaching
