Corporate Coaching 

My coaching services for organizations are mainly focused on conducting individual coaching sessions with the employees of the companies that can be part of the staff or managers. Hiring someone external can create a sense of safety and confidentiality that helps the individuals get the most out of the sessions. Some of the benefits of coaching in organizations are:

• Empowers individuals and encourages them to take responsibility

• Increases employee and staff engagement

• Improves individual performance

• Helps identify and develop high potential employees

• Helps identify both organizational and individual strengths and development opportunities

• Helps to motivate and empower individuals to excel

• Demonstrates organizational commitment to human resource development

I usually carry out between 6-10 individual sessions of one hour to guide and help the members of the teams understand their starting point and how to achieve their personal or professional goals. Through the Life Coaching sessions I will guide and encourage the Coachees to overcome certain obstacles that prevent or limit the possibility of achieving their goals. The sessions will be completely confidential to create this sense of security and trust that will allow the Coachee to grow personally.

• The initial session will be to get to know each other, explain what is and what is not coaching, explain how the sessions are going to be, make an alliance between the Coach and the Coachee and comment on other details or doubts.

• The remaining sessions will be to work on the topics chosen by the Coachee following a question-oriented dialogue, the Socratic Method. Through this method, the Coachee discovers what his life goals are and how to reach them. During the sessions I will help the Coachee to plan actions and to review the results.

The structure of these sessions will follow the GROW Coaching Model.

• Goals: determining outcome and goals of the session.

• Reality: giving clarity about the current situation and feelings.

• Options: map of options. 

• Will: plan. 

Once the Plan is determined, following sessions can be centered in the Review of the plan (evaluating the results, exploring relevant aspects, identifying and integrating learnings to plan new actions).

The five key skills that I will use for the sessions are: pacing, listening, asking, observing and giving feedback.

I always recommend that Companies send the Coachee an evaluation questionnaire after the coaching process in order to know her/his opinion and to be able to measure the results obtained with the sessions.
