coaching

Coaching is an ongoing professional relationship that helps people produce extraordinary

results in their lives, careers, businesses or organizations. Through the process of coaching,
clients deepen their learning, improve their performance, and enhance their quality of life. In
each meeting or call, the Coach listens and contributes observations and questions. This
interaction creates clarity and moves the client into effective action.

Coaching accelerates progress by providing focus and awareness. It concentrates on where

you are now and what you are willing to do to get where you want to be in the future,
recognizing that results are a matter of your intentions, choices and actions. Supported by a
good Coach's efforts and the application of the coaching process, amazing things can happen.

skills, concepts, rules, or changing of attitudes and behaviours to enhance the performance
of employees. It is team based, department based and group based which is for less people

being trained.
