Coaching in this area of clarification is called Business Coaching. The coaching business can succeed quite easily and it is becoming very common, particularly in the business world. Through my 10 years experience in the coaching field, as in most fields, I have observed that there is a crowd of people who really want to know. Everyone is not happy with the way they are living their lives and everybody is striving to achieve their dreams.
What is it that your heart longs for? Is it material goods? A better job? More money? Health? Peace, balance and harmony from your life? Close your eyes and take a picture in your mind of the person you want to become. Do you see yourself as one thing or another? Do you really want to change? Who wouldn't want to be a better person? It is important for you to find a coach, and then get our your coach to help you get to the destination you have set as your goal. I have only profiled a few coaching practices on business coaching and that is my area and not my area of special focus.
The basis of coaching in a majority of fields is growth. Income producing activity, productivity, causes, strategies, selling, management, time management, objectives, plans and the many activities, practices and disciplines that aim to improve performance and result in improvements to people. In a vast majority of these situations, performance is not achieved without some kind of encouragement and support of external accountability to some form of outside authority. That is the purpose of some business coaching. Coaching needs to be adopted by the ones who are committed to the success of their programs.
Learning about proper management of skills and capabilities and applying them in the workplace continues to be the norm in organizations big and small. Effective coaching on business coaching can go a long way to successful organizational change and growth in our businesses and lives. I have worked with managers who really didn't achieve their full potential. They were not meeting the goals of their senior team or were not able to engage their managers to help them to achieve more in a designated time. My work with a qualified business coach allows many of the business coaches to break through, and reach new levels of success, even develop the business coach themselves.
Over the last dozen years but especially over the last eight years, we have witnessed the emergence of business coaching as a profession. We have seen the creation of business coaching in the medical profession, legal services, educational services, professional associations, financial institutions, insurance companies, standards boards, financial Planning and the like. These days we have been saturated with the idea of coaching. Then why are we stagnant. The answer is largely or entirely simple and yet it is not simple in the conventional sense because it involves some very distinctive practices that require some thought and questions.
I have an in depth comment on how coaching is often conceived that I hope will be useful to you as you consider becoming an executive Business Coach or Life Coach.
I firmly believe that there is a single idea, "The Four pillars of coaching.
1. To grow our clients
2. To grow our businesses
3. To work with our clients to develop mental, physical and spiritual fitness
4. To grow as a coach and help others
It is critical to get the idea correct because your approach to and approach with your clients, will vary greatly from that of others. It is impossible to understand the numerous differences when we begin to just work with one another and make some kind of head to head connection but again, your experience will be unique to you and with different people; even when we see ourselves as being of the same practice or profession. In other words, what works for some, may not work so well with others. You need to find ways to connect and reach out to others so you are not only effective in helping others, but reaching out to others.
My coaching philosophy and approach to coaching is, "To make life better for as many people as I can". bespeaking of all the recording sales people (I am a sales coach not a speaker, but a life coach) are in that profession, it is more than just an extra income or a job. To me, coaching is really the process of helping another find the solutions to her/his challenges and the ways to break through barriers. It is about©Mary L Texas, Furthering her education about matters that interest her and becoming more of an authorityin that field of education (there are a lot books and resources available on the internet). This web site offers business coaching, as well as personal coaching.
I see business coaching as another way of developing (or beginning) my own abilities as a coach and helping other coaches grow and becoming felt in their profession. It is a service not only to other, but to the individual as well.
