So, what is coaching?Coaching is a process designed to assist individuals and organizations in creating change.Coaching empowers people to gain clarity, establish goals and take action by providing tools, structure and encouragement while challenging people to reach and stretch their potential. How does coaching work?We begin with foundation work to understand your agenda, clarify values and establish goals. Each week we evaluate progress, address current issues and integrate learning that comes from your previous actions. Practices that I use to keep clients moving forward may include: Inquiries, brainstorming, visioning, mind mapping, planning, accountability, value based decision making, and a process of exploring a variety of approaches to engaging in life. Sometimes we make things up based on what the moment requires!Coaching takes place over the phone which allows you to talk in the convenience and comfort of your home or office. I also offer coaching in person where geographically possible. Sessions are scheduled to meet the needs of the client. Typically we start by meeting weekly with sessions that last an hour. Frequency and length of sessions will vary according to the client's needs. Point to Creativity also offers classes and workshops in addition to individual coaching and consulting. What is it like to work with Lisa?I use a client centered approach, we work together to design what you want from the process. The work I do is based in the belief that you are naturally creative, resourceful and whole and that you are the best expert on your life and will discover the best answers for the choices ahead of you. As your Coach, I have expertise in a process to assist and accelerate this discovery but you are the driver and make decisions about what is best for you. I will hold your agenda so that when you get side tracked, overwhelmed or stuck in a rut or fog I can help you get back on track.Coaching is not just about "doing". Drill sergeant, I am not. Though committing to action and accountability is important, to be effective the coaching process must involve insight and learning. At times, you may need to take action and get moving and at other times, you may need to pause or slow down in order to gain clarity. There is a rhythm between inward and outward focus as you balance action with the quiet and calm needed to listen, examine and learn.
