What is Life Coaching?

Life Coaching originated in the USA over 10 years ago but has more recently gained public recognition in Britain where it is enjoying phenomenal growth as more and more people discover the advantages for themselves. Life Coaching is sweeping the country invading so many aspects of corporate and personal life that you almost wonder how we ever managed before. More and more people are experiencing an eagerness to become a professional coach or develop exceptional coaching skills.

Some individuals choose to build a very rewarding part-time or full-time career specialising as a Life Coach. Others have seen that Life Coaching Skills are being actively sought as a ‘qualification’ by companies wanting well-trained, skilled Personnel, Supervisory, Customer Care or Management Staff. In fact, Manager Coach is now recognised as a position although until recently it was unheard of.

Not to be confused with therapy or counselling, Life Coaching involves the development of a special relationship between the coach and the client which, rather than looking to the past, plans for the future. As apposed to focusing on one or two past events it has a more holistic approach aimed at dealing with all matters effecting the client’s achievement of a fulfilling, successful and stress-free life. Using the old adage ‘United we stand…’ coaching provides a confidential, non-judgemental, impartial and completely personalised support structure that enables the individual to achieve far more than they ever would ‘going it alone’. Clients come from all walks of life, and are unique in their desires, priorities and needs. The Coach guides them towards identifying their own personal potential, clarifying their objectives and seeing their future clearly - undistorted by people, emotions or events. Having a supportive family and friends is invaluable but these people cannot offer advice that isn’t clouded by their own wishes, issues or problems.
