Career Coaching

We offer 3 types of coaching programmes, so you can find something that works for each of your team members, whatever their level and needs.

Coaching is no longer just for the CEO.  Our coaching programmes are designed to bring the benefits (check out the benefits here) of coaching to the whole team.

• Do you believe that people are your biggest asset?
• Do you think they could be more productive/efficient/pro-active?
• Do you know that you’ve got some motivated team members but not all?

Imagine if each of your team had the time and skills to coach and develop other team members alongside their main role.  Bringing our team of coaches in means that you and your team can focus on the main job in hand whilst we help the team develop.

Coaching benefits everyone in an organisation, that includes both the employee and the employer. Here are some ways coaching does that:

Employee benefits
Improvement in individual’s performance, targets and goals, Increased openness to personal learning and development, increased ability to identify solutions to specific work-related issues. Greater ownership and responsibility and development of self-awareness. To get a clearer understanding of how coaching can benefit you, watch our … video here.

Employer benefits
Increased Employee Engagement – coaching can be used as an employee engagement strategy it allows the individual to actively reflect on their role within your organisation. The feedback they will receive from our coaches gives individuals a connection to their work, effectively improving employee engagement as well as company culture. Employee engagement has also been linked to lower absenteeism.

Identified and Developed High-Potential Individuals – Our coaches can work on developing various soft skills and close skill gaps within your organisation to properly prepare your employees in the succession pipeline to greater things.

Stronger Management Relationships
Relationships between employees and managers can often be strained. In fact, bad managerial relationships are often cited in the top reasons why employees quit. Our coaches help individuals understand things from a different perspective and why there may be conflict – we can help change attitudes to create a more cohesive environment.

Demonstrated Organizational Commitment to Career Development
By investing in your employee’s career development, they will feel more committed to the company due to feeling more valued and in return this create happier and engaged individuals which improves productivity and minimises lost profits due to absenteeism. Coaching shows you are investing in your employees and also makes your organisation more appealing to potential job candidates. This puts you in a much stronger position to recruit new candidates and also improve current employee retention.

8. What's the difference between a career coach and a life coach?

Whilst a career coach helps you achieve job-related goals, a life coach focuses on personal goals. Unlike career coaches, life coaches help a client for a long period of time since goals and plans may change as one reaches different chapters in their life, whether it be marriage, children or old age.

Our career coaching programmes typically run monthly for 6 months and thereafter drop down to every other month as our clients find they have a greater self-awareness and clearer ability of goals but like to still have that person on hand to keep them accountable.

9. What's the difference between a career coach and an executive coach?

Typically, a career coach will focus on advancing your career, helping you take the next steps toward your long-term goal, whether that be skills development or identifying a new role. An executive coach will cover a wider remit, including identifying what kind of leader they want to be and maybe are currently, how to become a better leader, making strategic decisions, and developing key relationships. So many of the elements are the same and our coaches use the same proven methodology working with apprentices right up to those in the C-Suite.

10. What is the difference between mentoring and career coaching?

It is important to understand the difference between coaching and mentoring as they are two distinct things. However, these terms are often used interchangeably.

In mentoring, the mentor advises and shares their own experiences and is usually more experienced and qualified than the learner (or ‘mentee’).

In coaching, the coach doesn’t advise. For this reason, the coach does not need to have direct experience of the coaches’ role. Career coaching aims to unlock a person’s potential to maximise their own performance. It is helping them to learn rather than teaching them, thus enabling them to feel more self-reliant going forward.
