DS Coach is available to leaders and high-performing talent to elevate effectiveness through guided reflection and self-discovery.
What is coaching?
Coaching is a development experience that uses guided reflection to enhance self-awareness, critical thinking and performance. Coaching may be used to accelerate growth or to improve performance by helping you identify opportunities to apply current knowledge or skills in new ways.
When should I pursue coaching?
Coaching is most effective when you already possesses the knowledge and skills needed to perform in a role or situation, but something is keeping you from performing at your best. A coach will help you identify obstacles, why they have arisen, and explore ways to remove them to improve performance and accelerate growth.
When should I leverage training or mentoring instead of coaching?
Coaching is focused on the application of knowledge or skills that already exist. Training or mentorship is a more effective solution for building new knowledge on a specific topic or functional area. Depending on the situation, coaching may be used in combination with training or mentorship to accelerate learning.
What other factors should be considered?
Coaching is a unique development experience, and outcomes are highly dependent on your mindset and level of engagement.
Your coach will ask questions that encourage self-reflection and facilitate discovery of new approaches to overcome challenges or improve performance.
