Coaching and Mentoring

"Our chief want in life is for someone to make us be what we can" - Emerson

Next Move believes that coaching is a framework of knowledge, skills, and personal attributes that a coach will invest in a relationship to develop human potential.
  • The knowledge is the information (theories, facts, and principles) that allows a coach to serve the clients from an informed perspective.
  • The skills are the demonstrated abilities to perform coaching functions, such as Establish Focus and Discover Possibilities.
  • The personal attributes are the background experiences, individual style, and unique perspective each coach has to offer.
  • The relationships are the dynamic interactions between coach and client that bring about the extraordinary results.

Collectively, we refer to knowledge, skills, and personal attributes as coaching competencies. These knowledgeable, skills, and attributes become more powerful when used in combination and in conjunction with the coaching “Conversation” model.

Coaching conversation is a structured process for identifying, discovering, and developing a client’s potential. For individuals to make progress into unfamiliar territory, this established conversational model provides structure to the journey.

A business coach can help you by getting you to spell out what it is that you really want and then working with you to make the changes that actually enable you to get there.
