Benchmark Coaching

Coaching Style

I believe we are all 'creative, resourceful and whole'. I coach the whole person, within the boundaries that we agree, with the agenda coming from you.

Coaching with me is full of humour, and while I follow a structure in my questioning - and listening - I also value intuition highly.

I create a 'safe and courageous' environment for you, which is a good place to start if there are some difficult questions you want to explore.

It is also a great place to explore your dreams and ambitions - or you could say to explore your 'highest purpose'.

This doesn't exclude me asking difficult questions or challenging you.

I cover this in more detail in the 'Coach and Client Pledges' which I will happily send if you want to explore working with me further.

I have been particularly influenced by the approaches promoted by 'Coach U' and 'Co-Active Coaching'. For more information on the values I work to, please click here to see the International Coaches Federation coach standards.

'The Power of Vulnerability'

Initially 'positive' and 'vulnerable' seem contradictory, but admitting our own vulnerability shows true self-confidence because we all feel vulnerable at some point.

I work to encourage people to relax within themselves, to find their 'authentic vioce'. It's a theme that underpins and inspires much of what I do.

So I dare you, do something which makes you feel vulnerable today!

Please call or email me with any thoughts or questions you have.
