.

Select one of the following numbers 7, 2, 3 or 6: 7

“What do you look for when choosing a coach for yourself”:

A combination of coaching and training; a chemistry between me and the coach.

.

Select one of the following numbers 8, 1, 4 or 5: 1

“Tell us a bit about your coaching”:

I offer three different types of coaching:

1. career coaching;
2. executive coaching
3. a blended solution which offers life coaching.

There is no hard-and-fast rule to stick with one when I coach people, we deviate according to the needs of the client. Career coaching is my passion.

.

Select one of the following numbers 8, 4 or 5: 5

“What is your favourite way that a client has found out about your work?”:

I coached the husband of one of my clients when he changed from his long-term permanent career to contracting, because she was enjoying my service and liked that I might help her whole family rather than just her.

.

What question would you like to add to the Chatterbox for another coach to answer?:

What’s the most difficult situation you have faced as a coach and what advice would you give other coaches if they face the same?

.

How would you answer that question?:

It’s sometimes hard with existing relationships in your network to take things from a supportive conversation to a monetised consulting service, especially when you’re starting out.

In order to understand why someone should employ you as a coach, you need to value the service you are giving (and your time) and appreciate the significant positive impact your work will have on the person, in order to explain to a potential client why a relationship should transition to being a paid service (of course using discretion with friends!)
