Coaching Customized to Your Learning Needs and Goals:
"A recent study published by the International Personnel Management Association
shows that where training plus coaching was compared to training alone, the
combined approach increased productivity by 88% versus 22.4%."

What is Coaching?
Coaching is the process of possibility discovery and then moving people into
action.
Coaching is a completely confidential, interactive process that helps individuals
set better goals, take more effective action, make better decisions, and more
fully use their natural strengths.
Professional coaches are trained to listen and observe, to customize their
approach to the individual client's needs, and to elicit solutions and strategies
from the client. While the coach provides feedback and an objective perspective,
the client is responsible for taking the steps to produce the results he or
she desires.
What do coaches do?
Coaches help people focus on the things that are most important to them (their
core values) then, move them into action to create more balanced and effective
personal and professional lives.
Think of a coach as a personal trainer that stretches and exercises your mind and intellect.
What is a Session Like?
You are the focus of every session. The coach will ask you powerful questions
and listen to the responses. Often there is more than one message in a response.
We will discover what is, what you want, what happens next and how we will
get you there. We will work on creating the life you want. Practice makes
permanent. You will be supported held accountable to your life agenda.
A free introductory session offer of coaching is offered. This enables us
to feel each other out a bit and to see if we would make a good partnership.
Sessions are handled over the phone or in person in 20-45 minute blocks. This
is an efficient, effective and powerful method for both of us to zoom in and
focus on the current coaching issue(s) and get on with the day. In addition
to scheduled sessions, I make myself available for quick-coaching (5-10 minute
sessions) to share successes, review an issue or to bounce ideas.
What Coaching is Not
Coaching is not psychotherapy. It does not focus directly on relieving psychological
pain or treating cognitive or emotional disorders. Coaching is about creating
new awareness and new opportunities and moving you into action.
It is a confidential process not tied to performance outcomes unless arranged
by the supervisor and agreed to by the client (employee). Even then, the coach
does not report back to the supervisor.
How Will This Work?
Craig works with clients on a need be basis, by phone, email and/or in person.
This will be set up individually around training needs and budget. Rates range
from $70-$400 per month for individuals.
Scope
Coaching has the freedom and flexibility to address a wide variety of personal
and professional topics. In any given coaching relationship, coach and client
alone determine the scope of their work. Coaching is not necessarily restricted
to a narrowly defined issue nor is its scope determined in any other way.
Contribution to Results
In coaching, any contribution the coach makes to produce the client's desired
outcome is through on-going interaction with the client. The coach's role
does not include producing a contracted product or result outside of the coaching
sessions.
Ongoing Impact
Coaching is designed to provide clients with a greater capacity to produce
results and a greater confidence in their ability to do so. It is intended
that clients do not leave coaching with a perception that they need to rely
on a coach in order to produce similar results in the future.
Craig Bodoh holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Social Science and has been coaching people since 1981.
