Introduction: I coach Christians who are at a crossroad and decide they want balance and success, and to make a difference with their lives.
Coaching:
- Is a collaborative partnership between the coach and person being coached.
- Involves dialogue rather than advice-giving, disciplining or therapy.
- Is built on trust, integrity, self-discipline, and accountability.
- Is results-oriented, focused on reaching goals.
- Discusses weaknesses and obstacles, but emphasizes strengths and positive change.
- Assumes that people are resourceful and able to set goals and reach them.
- Lets clients define and move toward their goals with God's help and the coach's assistance.
- Helps people reach their peak performance assumes that life is integrated we cannot assume that one's work, family life, personal history, spirituality or lifestyle can be put into neat compartments.
- Embraces change as something that is always occurring, sometimes confusing, often positive, and usually growth-producing.
