Stay flexible, like thatch grass in the wind.
In coaching and in advising people, it becomes clear that working life is a place where far more is required than the implementation of learned specialist knowledge. It is a place where the willingness for personal development and maturation is demanded again and again.
Due to the increasingly rapid and unpredictable changes in the world of work and the constantly changing and increasing requirements , skills such as the ability to reflect, (self-)leadership and (self-)effectiveness are more in demand than ever.
A wealth of information is already available on practically all coaching topics and tools .
However, personal coaching goes far beyond learning tools for further self-optimization! The starting point is questioning your own current frame of reference and its limits: Since no one can look themselves in the back, the effect of their current attitude, their own behaviors and their consequences for their own experience remain partially invisible.
This is where the coaching process comes in: It enables insights for personal development, which then lead to a sustainable new attitude. Understanding previous, possibly dysfunctional patterns opens up new scope for behavior and decision-making. This serves both the organization and the individual.
Possible reasons for coaching are
- Supporting managers during function and position transitions (the first 100 days)
- Becoming a leader in your own team
- Career development and individual fit check, location assessment
- Self-management and self-reflection
- Dealing with internal and external conflicts
- Personal appearance and presence
- Resilience and health; work-life balance
- Dealing with paradoxes and contradictions in the VUCA field
- Leading between agility and stability
