Why Hire
Why Hire a Coach?
Consider the definition of coaching: “partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximize their personal and professional potential.” Those who seek to maximize personal or professional potential and are committed to the process will benefit from coaching.
Examples of the ways that ICF Central Florida coaches have supported clients include:
- Increasing potential for promotion
- Enhancing leadership effectiveness
- Developing a new career path
- Championing change initiatives
- Improving communication
- Navigating a major life change, e.g. retirement, new family member, relocation
- Transforming conflict into collaboration
- …and more…
An effective coaching relationship relies on good chemistry between client and coach. We recommend that you speak with at least three different coaches, and consider which individual is best suited to help you maximize your personal and professional potential.
