Coaching is a developmental partnership based on shared responsibility between a coach and an individual, designed to promote and support an individual’s professional development and personal achievement. To get the best results from a coaching opportunity it is best to follow a goal-oriented process that ensures understanding, commitment, action and learning.

COACHING WITH RELATIONSHIP AWARENESS

The focus of our coaching is to understand the motives and values of the client in his/her work environment. One of the first tasks for the coach is to assess the client’s motivational preferences and match their values with their job responsibilities. From there, the focus shifts to improving the person’s performance in relating to others.

In the coaching format, a conceptual framework will be presented to illustrate different types of motivation. The client will identify their own motivations related to their job, and the expectations of the job role. These self-assessments are compared with feedback from others, and appropriate action plans are created to assist in behavioral changes. Follow up sessions assist in determining if outcomes have been achieved and relationships have been improved.

OBJECTIVES

The coaching client will be able to:

1. Describe a model for diagnosing motivation and personal values
2. Explain how to match performance expectations with motivation
3. Demonstrate “borrowed” behavior in order to meet the needs of others
4. Identify his/her own values, and how they may initiate conflict when overdone.
