How is coaching delivered?
Coaching can be delivered in various ways, and the most suitable system is usually negotiated between the client and coach. A typical delivery system may include one 30-60 minute telephone session per week, e-mail coaching in between and a single one-on-one session per month. Some coaches also do Group Coaching, including tele-classes.
There are many ways a Personal Development Coach can perform coaching. Today, many coaching relationships exist solely on the Internet. Instant Message chats, e-mails, and video conferencing can all create opportunities for the coach and client to interact. In addition, phone calls and face-to-face meetings often occur. Nightingale Conant’s Personal Development Coaching programs are conducted exclusively by the telephone. Coaching involves an investment of time by both parties. Expect to spend from four to eight hours each month working with your coach. Appointments are usually conducted once a week, for 30-45 minutes per session, plus additional assignments throughout the week. One-half hour of complimentary time is usually provided initially to get an idea of what coaching is about and to see if you can work together in a long-term relationship. Not all clients are accepted.
There are many ways coaching can be performed. The most convenient method is through the internet. Instant messaging, e-mails, and video conferencing can all create an environment for the coach and client to interact. In addition, phone calls and face-to-face meetings are often more suitable for specialised coaching. Our coaching programs are designed to be flexible and cost effective for our clients. Our programs are structures into multiple sessions which focus on key areas for a clients particular needs. After an initial phone conversation a personal development coach will customise the program to help achieve your goals with more effectiveness.
