FAQ
Coaching is designed to maximise an individual's potential and improve their performance in both professional and personal contexts. It is a structured, goal-focused process where the coach partners with the individual. This approach is primarily non-directive, meaning the coach uses questions and listening to help the individual discover their own solutions rather than providing direct instruction.
Coaching can help you with key areas of an executive career. This can include, for example, clarifying career goals, identifying opportunities for promotion, crafting strategies for promotion, improving decision-making, and boosting your presence in front of investors and boards and navigating critical transitions.
Coaching is a partnership where a coach helps you find your own solutions. They use questions to guide you in developing your skills and achieving personal goals. The focus is on your future growth, and the coach's role is to facilitate your progress, not to give you answers.
Consulting is an expert service where a consultant provides specific solutions to a business problem. They analyse the situation and present a detailed strategy or plan. The relationship is based on the transfer of knowledge, with the consultant acting as an external expert to solve a problem the organisation can't handle alone.
