COACHING

Coaching and mentoring share many similarities so it makes sense to outline the common things coaches and mentors do.

• Facilitate the exploration of needs, motivations, desires, skills and thought processes to assist the individual in making real, lasting change.
• Use questioning techniques to facilitate therapist’s own thought processes in order to identify solutions and actions.
• Support the therapist in setting appropriate goals and methods of assessing progress in relation to these goals.
• Observe, listen and ask questions to understand the therapist’s situation.
• Encourage a commitment to action and the development of lasting personal growth & change.
• Evaluate the outcomes of the process, using objective measures wherever possible to ensure the relationship is successful and the therapist is achieving their personal goals.
• Encourage therapists to continually improve competencies and to develop new developmental alliances where necessary to achieve their goals.
• Manage the relationship to ensure the therapist receives the appropriate level of service and that programmes are neither too short, nor too long.
