The discipline of coaching,
as we know it today, started in the early 1980s. Prior to the term "coaching," people
referred to themselves as mentors, consultants, advisors, consultants
or just
as a "helping hand." Today,
coaching is a more highly recognized and respected occupation.
Research by the International
Personnel Management Association, results of which were published
in January 2001, concluded
that "ordinary
training typically increased productivity by 22%, while training combined
with coaching increased productivity by 88%"
"Having a coach has
been a unique experience for me. She has helped me make some tremendous
changes, not just
at work, but in the way I
view things at a time when I was very stressed and depressed. Coaching
has made me realize that my stress and frustrations came from myself
and that changing my life completely was not impossible. I think
it must be the easiest, most practical and quickest way of making all
your so-called 'impossible' dreams come true!"
"The firm I work
for offered life coaching sessions to those employees who felt the
need to use them. I decided that there had to be more
to life than work,
worry and stress, which to an extent I had been putting myself under due
to a lack of self confidence. I was also concerned about the aggression
I sometimes displayed when dealing with certain individuals. So I took
up the
firm's offer. At first I was skeptical, however, over six sessions I gained
the confidence and belief that I could tackle anything. I also, for the
first time, had an idea of what direction I wanted my life to go in,
but more importantly
to me helped highlight the things I value most in my life."
"Coaching
was instrumental in helping me to work out my career priorities by prompting
me to set myself concrete goals and encouraging me to realize
how
truly achievable they are. In the short term she gave me a lot of practical
advice in how to move forward in my current position whilst always keeping
in mind my end goals. By helping me change my attitude to my career and
making me feel responsible for myself and in control, she enabled me
to inject a
healthy shot of enthusiasm into my working day." |
