Is coaching like therapy?  
  Not if it is done correctly – we usually say. . .  
  . . . a therapist helps you explore your past  
  . . . a consultant tells you how to do something  
  . . . a mentor shows you how to do what he or she has already done  
  . . . a coach provides you with tools and support as you take action toward you own goals

How does coaching work?  
  We form an interactive partnership designed to pinpoint goals and pathways that promote achievement of possibilities. You become inspired and committed to taking the next step toward developing your work life. We will assist you to achieve results more professionally and faster than you would be able to if you were on your own. This is possible because coaches help you stay focused and on track so that you develop more rapidly and produce more satisfying results in your career than you would normally accomplish on your own. We are highly skilled, trained and experienced in navigating pathways to business success.

How long will we work together?  
  Long enough to achieve your goals, and not a moment longer.

Ultimately, that is really up to you and what you want to accomplish. We strongly encourage you to make a commitment to stick with the coaching process for at least three months to experience the benefits and firmly establish progress toward your goals. However, some clients hire a coach to help them accomplish a specific goal or project. When that objective has been met, the coaching terminates.

Many clients find they want to continue working with the coach because there are other possibilities and benefits the work coach can help them to achieve. Whatever the decision,
My Work Coach is there for you.

What is the coaching procedure?  
We invite you to accept a FREE get acquainted session to discuss your coaching needs, clarify questions and concerns, and get to know each other. We both need to feel comfortable with establishing a coaching partnership.  
Then we schedule the first working sessions – scheduling is flexible to accommodate you. Working sessions are scheduled a month at a time. You select the number of sessions, the interval between sessions and the duration of each session to meet your needs and goals.  
We realize that meetings with your coach, although scheduled, may sometimes need to be changed to reflect unanticipated business demands. We will make every effort to accommodate you as long as notice is given 24 hours in advance of the initially scheduled meeting.  
You call the coach on the day and time scheduled.  
Sessions are scheduled for an exact period of time – from 30 minutes to 90 minutes.  
You may email at any time during the coaching process.  
All monthly payments are due prior to the first session of the month. You may conveniently and safely pay on line with a Visa or Mastercard.

What kind of coaching is available?  
  At My Work Coach we engage in three types of coaching:  
  1. Executive Coaching
Business executives are involved in fast environments that challenge their leadership expertise and test the limits of their decision/analysis responses. Little time remains for advancing their own careers and developing their own potential.

Our coaching provides direction and assistance to help executives accomplish goals, progress their careers, enhance leadership skills, develop specific communication techniques, appropriately structure their departments and master the political environment impacting their success.
 
  2. Business Coaching
Starting and growing a business challenges even the most experienced. To be successful, decisions need to be made and opportunities need to be analyzed in an immediate timeframe. Research shows, individual business ownership is often a individual position. It can be lonely at the top-with or without a bottom.

Our coaching provides another source for you to “bounce ideas off”, brainstorm an opportunity, or analyze a decision. We assist in creating
business plans, identifying strategic steps, and support you throughout implementation and operation to achieve results.
 
  3. Career Coaching
Where are your footsteps taking you? If your career is in a fog or if just working hard isn't getting you where you want to be, career coaching can pose questions to help you clarify your current career and future opportunities.

My Work Coach can assist you in assessing your current career, targeting appropriate changes, and supporting you through the application of your change decisions. Using a coach through this process ensures you have a partner to support you, encourage you, and guide your progress. All important pieces to ensured success.

How is the coaching session conducted?  
  Coaching can be delivered by personally meeting, on-line using email or a chat room or over the phone.

Because they are convenient and intensely focused meetings, phone consultations tend to be very effective. Without distractions and interruptions, telephone meetings are often high-yield interactions.

Coaching can be delivered to a group or on a one-to-one basis.
