Value of Coaching
Every person who has achieved significant success had
one attribute in common; they all had coaches. We need coaches in our lives to
maximize our potential. The process identifies and leverages personal
presentation and communication style strengths and overcomes limitations. You
will feel more confident and be able to inspire yourself and others to
greatness.
The coaching sessions are based on your specific needs.
All coaching sessions have personal pre-coaching assessments and post-change
follow up plans to maintain the new skills.
We offer two types of coaching. Please click on the

The Presentation Skills Coaching Process
Pre-Coaching Assessment: A pre-program questionnaire
sent to each participant to determine individual needs. This process also
includes a pre-program phone consultation with each participant. This process
allows each coaching session to be customized to the participant’s specific
needs.
Presentation Skills Coaching: On the day of meeting with
a participant, the coach reviews the assessment results and begins the process
of development GREAT presentation. The coach first reviews the presentation
content and how the information is presented and in what sequence. The
participant’s program opening and closing are carefully studied, as these are
two critical parts of the presentation. The content is then customized each
audience. The coach also helps each participant with audiovisual tools,
including effectively using PowerPoint. The participant’s voice and body
language are enhanced through specific techniques.
Post-Coaching Evaluation: The coach produces a written
report of observations and recommendations for the participant. This process
also includes "after-care" through telephone and e-mail contacts to ensure that
the participant’s skills remain strong.

NOTE: The communication skills coaching is often done in
conjunction with a communication skills training session. This format includes a
program and followed by individual coaching sessions.
Today’s challenging workplace environment requires
excellent communication skills to be successful. During times of stress
our communication skills can easily falter leading to poor relationships with
other people. This behavior leads to greatly diminished productivity.
A manager or co-worker may feel reluctant to share
problem areas. A communication skills coach offer an ideal perspective,
which is practical and
cost effective for people who want to dramatically improve workplace performance. An
experienced professional coach gives private, one-on-one suggestions for improvement.
The process is framed in a very positive light. It is
important that the participants understand this is an enrichment
process, not a punishment. The process focuses on highlighting the positive
skills that are already in place and correcting problem areas.
Pre-Coaching Assessment: A brief introductory phone call gives the coach a chance to
establish rapport and alleviate any concerns about the
process.
Coaching: The coach
meets with the client to discuss areas of focus The client completes a
self-improvement action plan form.
Post-Coaching Evaluation: The coach produces a written
report of observations and recommendations for the client. One month after the session, the coach
provides additional support through telephone and e-mail contacts to ensure that the
skills are put in place.
