Coaching Model By Abdul Razak Bin Mohamed Ishak
(Career Coach, SINGAPORE)
Introduction
The purpose of this Case Study is to develop a personal Coaching Model that best suits me, to be used as guidance during the Coaching Sessions with my coachees.
Basis of the Coaching Model
When conducting my coaching sessions, I use the “ICA Coaching Model” as the basis.
The below diagram depicts the ICA Coaching Model:-
Briefly, the following describes what this is all about:-
- It looks at the “Current Situation” the coachee is at, and the “Desired Outcome” the coachee wants to achieve.
- To do that, the coachee, together with the coach, co-creates “Self Awareness” with the objective of achieving the “Desired Outcome”.
- This shall be done in alignment with the “Beliefs and Values” that the coachee truly appreciates.
- Some coachees come already armed with their “Goals & Vision”, some do not; and so needs guidance.
- It is via the coach’s powerful “Questioning & Reframing” that deeper “Self Awareness” can be achieved. Often, reframing is required to move the coachee from a “disempowering perspective” to an “empowering perspective”.
- “Taking Action” is the final important part of the coaching process.
ICF Core Coaching Competencies
The following eleven(11) ICF Core Coaching Competencies are always the “to be complied rules” during my coaching sessions:
