Coaching

Course Description

Coaching aims at creating an environment of growth, well-being and
optimisation of the individual’s potential. It will enable the coachee to think differently about topics such as career development, the work-life-balance, team and self-positioning within their organisation. It is a method of helping people deal with conflicts and change and to use and develop different management approaches.

Coaching sessions are delivered one-on-one and the coaching process uses questioning techniques to facilitate the individual’s own thought process in order to identify solutions and actions. It gives a space for the individual to build upon his or her skills, to better understand obstacles to personal development, and to acquire better self-knowledge. For the coaching to be successful, the content of the sessions will remain confidential between coachee and coach. The objectives of the coaching process can be established in a three-party session between the coachee, client and the coach.
