Coaching
It all starts with you and it’s all up to you. Your performance, your relationships with family and colleagues, and your development – as a person, as a colleague, as a partner.
We firmly believe that good relationships with the people around you are the key to success – no matter what your definition of “success” is.
The model of a good relationship includes respect, listening, trust and influence (towards positive outcomes) and caring. However, for the model to work, there needs to be a conscious and thoughtful communication and attitude.
What do you learn through coaching sessions?
We practice and develop one-to-one (1:1) conversations. This includes improving communication skills, developing empathy, deepening listening skills and implementing a model of taking responsibility. It’s a model of having a conversation, with the aim to get feedback about myself – where I’ve made mistakes or had the wrong mindset that has affected the people around me.
If I get feedback, I can change myself and get better results for everyone. It’s a universal skill that helps me to build and maintain good relationships at work, at home, with friends, and in all aspects of my life. Better 1:1 communication skills ensure maximum impact and effectiveness of your conversations.

Why is it good to learn how to have 1:1 conversations individually?
One to one meetings create a private and safe environment where you can freely discuss topics, concerns that you would not want to, and perhaps even dare not, discuss in a large group. During the sessions, no-one makes judgements and so the real problems get solved.
