We spend a large part of our lives at our workplace. That is why it is important that every employee gets pleasure and satisfaction from his work and can continue to develop. Coaching helps you to tap into your talents, take matters into your own hands building stronger relationships, achieving better results and resulting into healthier organizations.

What is coaching?

Coaching is a creative reflection process that fosters a person's personal and professional potential and makes it possible to achieve the set objectives creating a higher awareness. The coachee (i.e. the person being coached) remains responsible for his or her decisions. Some important keys for a successful individual coaching route are: co-creative collaboration, equality, responsibility, challenge and self-management. According to the code of ethics of the International Coach Federation (our global professional association), coaching is not intended for problems such as burnout, depression, addiction, etc. Other forms of support exist for this.

When should you get coaching?

Companies with a coaching culture increasingly use coaching when the coachee faces a new challenge. This may be a new position or a change in vision and strategy requiring the employee to develop new skills, etc ... Sometimes coaching starts from a difficult situation, in which the coachee has been performing poorly for a longer period of time, his motivation is lost, etc ... while the company still believes in the potential of this employee. In both cases it helps to have an (external) confidant who, impartially and without prejudice, offers advice, listens and challenges, so that the coachee regains his strength and creates the desired ‘shift’.
