Mind-Gap’s greatest passion is ‘unlocking potential in people’ and Coaching is one of the most powerful key tools we use to enable this to happen. As one of the founding fathers of Coaching, Tim Gallwey puts it in his book ‘The Inner Game’: ‘Coaching is unlocking people’s potential to maximize their own performance’.
The last few years have seen this area of Mind-Gap’s offer grow exponentially through the impact of Covid-19 opening up international (online) communication like never before! At any one time, Mind-Gap are currently coaching Senior Leaders in a range of Global and UK-based business contexts so, for instance, we are currently working with a range of clients in the US, Spain, Italy, France, Germany, Saudi Arabi, Japan and all parts of the UK.
You’ve probably heard people talking about coaching but what actually is coaching, and how do Mind-Gap use it?
The video above introduces Mind-Gap’s approach to Coaching but Julie Starr (2011) describes coaching as ‘a series of arranged conversations between two individuals which stimulates learning, action and change’. Coachees are enabled, through ‘effective questioning and listening from their coach, to view their problem in a different light and identify missed opportunities’. (Egan 2001).
Coaching is a challenging, but confidential service which enables you to tackle issues facing you and your leadership. It is a powerful intervention in boosting performance and compressing the development of Leadership traits . It can also help deal with issues and challenges before they become major problems. The focus of a Coaching session can be personal or work related, You are 100% the focus!
A Mind-Gap coaching session will typically take place as a powerful conversation between the Mind-Gap coach and the coachee. A session focuses on helping the coachee discover answers for themselves – after all, people are much more likely to engage with solutions that they have come up with themselves, rather than those that are forced upon them!
One of the tools we use in Coaching is that of Psychometric tests which enable us to get right into the complexities of personality and how that affects gaps in our mindset. See here for more information of the Mind-Gap Psychometric offer.
All Mind-Gap’s Coaches are qualified at minimum at ILM Level 5 up to Masters Level. We will link you with who we think is the right person but your connection with the Coach is critical so this initial connection may need adjustment.
