COACHING

 Beverly Fuller is a qualified coach, accredited with the InnerLifeSkills ™ (ILS) coaching methodology.

Coaching is a series of interactions between coach and client that includes questioning, observation, feedback, and other powerful and scientific techniques through which the coach helps the client explore issues, clarify, understand, and develop actionable outcomes to implement between sessions. Ultimately clients achieve – and even exceed – their stated goals.

An ILS coach uses world-class coaching and communication techniques to support individuals to realise goals in many areas of their lives. The ILS methodology equips the coach with powerful personal growth tools to support clients in making the inner transformation that is necessary to manifest their goals. ILS coaching is internationally recognised by the International Coach Federation (ICF) and by the local body governing coaching and mentoring in South Africa, Comensa.

Different Forms of Coaching

We offer various forms of coaching, depending on the client need. In companies, the focus is mostly on executive and leadership coaching. From personal behaviour change, to enhancing leader effectiveness, to building stronger relationships, to personal development, to better work-life integration – the subject matter of each coaching session or series is client-driven. Career coaching is the latest and most powerful methodology to help people find greater fulfillment at work, to make job or career changes, and to maximise their potential in their current or a new occupation.

Coaching Format

Coaching programs typically last six months to one year. This includes regular personal assessments and weekly or fortnightly coaching sessions. Sessions are typically 1 hour in duration. Clients may elect to sample the value of coaching by entering into a shorter coaching contract of 6 – 10 sessions, and decide from there. In all cases, our individual coaching programs are targeted to the client’s needs and budget limitations.

Benefits to you, the client:

• Studies show that the top three personal characteristics of an effective executive coach are the ability to form a strong “connection”, professionalism, and the use of a clear and sound coaching methodology. Having a range of scientific coaching tools such as those provided by ILS™ significantly enhances the perceived value of the coaching.

• Many studies indicate that coaching has earned companies a significant return on investment (an average of 5.7 times the initial investment) and significant intangible benefits to the business. Productivity improves because the capability of managers to elicit results through others improves – via the power of interaction and relationships.

• Coaching has a strategic impact. Among the benefits to companies that provide coaching to executives are improvements in productivity, quality, organisational commitment, client relationships and service, retention of executives, cost reductions, bottom line profitability, working relationships with direct reports, peers and supervisors, teamwork, and job satisfaction.

• Overall, coaching helps individuals grow as professionals and contribute fully to the success of an organisation.

• Coaching is an investment that you make in developing your key people for the long-term benefit of your organisation. It ties in closely with an effective succession planning strategy.
