My Coaching Promises
Connection, authenticity, and trust are paramount to a successful coaching relationship.
If we go on a coaching journey together, I make you these promises:
1. There is no judgement. A coaching session is a safe space where you can bring your true self, your values, your beliefs, your insecurities, your ego, your strengths, and your weaknesses, and take a good hard look, without any judgement from me.
2. I will not tell you what to do. You are an adult and I trust that you can make your own decisions. My job as a coach is to help you work out your own answers through careful listening and considered questioning.
3. I will challenge you. Considering things from a different perspective can be hugely beneficial to deepen your thinking. But remember my first promise, it will be done without judgement. We will agree on how much challenge you are comfortable with, and you can always tell me if you think I am wrong.
4. I will listen to you. How often do you have the time and space to talk, without interruption? Sometimes, that is all you need to break through barriers.
5. Everything that is said in coaching sessions is confidential. So long as you’re not hurting anyone, including yourself, your thoughts and your secrets are safe with me.
6. I promise to give you the time and space to work through what you need to work through. I won’t try to speed you up. Your solutions won’t be rushed. And they will be yours.
I would love to hear from you. Is there anything I’m missing? What do you look for in a coaching partnership?
