Coaching

What is it about coaching that works? In short, it works because of the unique possibility to stop for a while, think, expand perspective and figure out the plan. A possibility we normally don’t have in our daily routines under time pressure. A structured approach to see your life from a different angle, from a perspective, if you like. Sometimes reaching a higher level of self-awareness. Sometimes through analyzing your own limiting beliefs. Sometimes focusing on a detailed plan for massive action. All this through asking the right questions and hearing the answers. Saying them loud. Sometimes only listening to silence.

Coaching is transformative. It is really touching deep inside and inducing change within.

Coaching is about greatness. About THINKING BIG.  Sometimes coaching is just about little things in life. Small details, like building motivation for a procrastinated task that is not fun to do at all. Or up-taking an important conversation, otherwise difficult to start.
