-
Q: WHAT IS COACHING?Coaching is an iterative, targeted, interactive process designed to facilitate concrete changes in performance—and bottom-line results. At GC, we help clients achieve their goals through powerful conversations that are intended to inspire new thinking, perceptions and behavior that actualize your potential, improve your performance, create focus and directional clarity, support the achievement of your personal and professional goals, and enhance the quality of your life.
-
Q: WHAT IS THE OBJECTIVE OF A COACHING ENGAGEMENT?The objective is to focus on your potential (your unrealized ability, capacity or possibility) by leveraging your strengths, uncovering what’s in your way, and targeting the areas you are most interested in addressing to help you reach your goals more effectively.
-
Q: CAN I CHANGE THROUGH COACHING?Yes, you can. We’ve seen many clients change in powerful ways. And they’ve likely had ambitions, goals, concerns and challenges that are similar to yours. Coaching can be the catalyst to profoundly shift the trajectory of your life, enabling you to change the quality of your life and the direction of your career in ways you never dreamed of.
-
Q: WHAT ABOUT CONFIDENTIALITY?What happens in our sessions stays in our sessions. We fully understand the value of your trust, and we take every precaution to safeguard it. We will provide you with a detailed description of the ethical code that governs every client-coach relationship we enter. This document not only places our standards before you in plain text, but also codifies our commitment to you, the client, and your progress.
-
Q: HOW OFTEN WOULD I MEET WITH MY COACH?We meet based on you but we suggest once a week. Through many years of experience and testing of different time frames, we’ve found that this frequency yields the greatest returns in terms of change. Meeting once a week offers time for reflection and application of learning between sessions, while maintaining the momentum of our work together.
-
Q: WHERE WOULD I MEET WITH MY COACH?In order to make coaching as convenient as possible for you, we offer several options. Coaching services can be conducted in person (could be higher price), or over the phone/zoom for remote clients and busy executives.
-
Q: HOW LONG DOES THE COACHING PROCESS TAKE?The time frame can vary greatly and depends on a wide range of factors: your goal(s), your commitment and openness to change, your capacity for introspection, your circumstances, how quickly and thoughtfully you complete homework assignments, and other unique factors.
