Coaching calls are pre-scheduled in advance.
Instead of being at my office at an
appointed time, you simply pick up the phone and
call me. This
really works well!
How long do people work with a coach?
The
length of time for the coaching experience varies,
depending on what you want to accomplish. For some
people, it is as little as six months. For others,
working with a coach in alliance is so beneficial,
that they choose to continue on an ongoing basis.
I believe it’s important to commit to at least six months so
that you have measurable results from the coaching
experience.
Are there any guarantees this will work for me?
You must be ready, willing
and able, in order to receive the maximum benefit
of coaching.
You will get out of your coaching experience
whatever you put into it.
The results are a direct reflection of your
effort and willingness.
The guarantee I offer is my integrity.
What about fees?
Professional coaching fees vary all the way from
$200 - $1000 per month, usually depending
on the training and experience of the coach,
but also the complexity of the issues involved.
I will be pleased to discuss my fee
structure with you.
Some people call coaching continuing education. Others call it life training.
I call it an investment in yourself that
multiplies into lifelong benefits.
What you gain through the experience of being
coached lasts.
Exactly what is covered by the monthly fee?
The monthly fee covers 3 scheduled sessions, each
lasting 30-40 minutes.
Brief spot coaching calls and email between scheduled
sessions are complimentary,
as are the evaluations I send you.
What if I want more coaching
time?
If you are involved in a huge challenge or have
a deadline pressing in, we can
make arrangements to increase the coaching time
so it will work for you, and simply
adjust the fee accordingly.
I also work with people on a flex
basis, so you buy a block of time in advance and
use it up as needed. This is primarily for companies and organizations, but
can also work for some individuals with unpredictable schedules.
How is payment made?
Coaching fees are payable in advance.
The preferred method of payment is by credit card.
I accept Visa, MasterCard and American Express.
How will I know that we can work together well?
The
initial consultation is free and without obligation.
We will either connect during our initial conversation,
or we will not. Usually both people have some
sense of this.
The coach/client relationship is one in which
your comfort level is paramount.
If the coaching takes us to an arena where I don’t feel I can
help you effectively, I will be pleased to refer
you to a coach that may be better suited to meet
you where you are.
Is coaching just for people with problems?
No. Coaching
is for people who are already successful and want
to be more successful in one or more
parts of life. Sometimes people begin coaching being
unsure of what they want, but being
very clear about what they don’t want.
Unlike counseling, coaching is not for anyone who
is paralyzed by the past, but is ready,
willing and able to move forward and make changes
to enhance the tomorrows.
Working together, you will find there is a new
objectivity and perspective with the synergy that
is created in the coaching relationship.
There will be clarity and focus, deep listening
and challenges, and likely a lot of laughter along
the way. You
might find yourself wondering why you wait so long
to get going!
