My standard coaching cycle
The coaching and mentoring approaches that have worked best for me in the past have used a modular approach, with a core of sessions to orient and evaluate, combined with a number of prioritised modules, or projects focusing on certain areas.
Clients come from a variety of starting points. Some mainly after strength, movement and mobility, so we focus on health and wellness with less emphasis on impact and change. Some the opposite, so mainly wanting to work to business goals, and we bring in just enough health and wellness to stay in balance.
While coaching and advisory relationships come in all shapes and sizes, I usually kick off new ones with a 10-session starter series, spread over 3-5 months.
​
For each session, I invest time preparing and digesting, and to get the most out of our work hope you will too. I've built some worksheets for the sessions I hope will help.
​
Health journeys, 2 sessions
Over the first two sessions we share our lifetime health journeys, from childhood through to future goals.
​​
Impact journeys, 2 sessions
We'll then do the same with impact, through structured conversations about choices in our careers and lessons learned.
​​
Life design, 2 sessions
Next, we'll use design thinking through two workshop-style sessions to brainstorm opportunity areas and confirm priorities.
​​
Focus sessions, 4+ sessions
Focus sessions help you build skills to meet specific goals.
​
Reflection, 1+ session
We come together to reflect on the experience, and consider any next steps.
​
I hope you find this a useful, loosely structured way we might work together. Depending what you're after, I've worked variants of this approach for investments starting from £2,000.
​
Thanks and have a great day,
Gary
