Welcome Coaching Into Your Life

A Research Paper By Andreea Nedelcu
Life Coach, SPAIN

This “Welcome Coaching Into Your Life” paper is based on a research study of 20 people who were exposed to coaching for the first time in their lives and were found at various stages of their journeys. This coaching study’s objectives were to determine current beliefs about the benefits that coaching can have on a person’s life, experiment with pure coaching sessions on any issue in their lives, and conclude from non-coaching participants. At the end of this study, I felt extremely grateful for the breadth of knowledge and deep personal insights I had gained. I now understand and believe I am in a better position to pinpoint my niche, the profiles of my clientele, and the messages I wish to convey about my coaching practice.

The JOURNEY Coaching Model

A Coaching Model By Andreea Nedelcu

I adore both traveling and coaching, and I would love for my new coaching model, The JOURNEY, to vividly and fully represent this synthesized idea that life is like a journey on a map. One that is continuous, going from place to place, never linear, never finished, but one that is highly inspiring and gratifying because it keeps you connected to your values, dreams, and personal exploration and progress. I’ve always wondered what the “secret ingredients” are that let everyone take a jump into a completely different universe, where we become disengaged from the everyday grind and more attuned to ourselves than before. What impact does the holiday have?

Imposing vs. Inspiring

During one of my peer meetings, where I was acting as the client, this Imposing vs. Inspiring power tool arose. Because I feel like there are many aspects of my relationship with my twins that I want to be the best I can be, I often bring up parenting topics as a coaching client for inquiry and deeper analysis. This session’s focus was on how I need to better manage my expectations of my children. In this specific session, the result really caught me off guard and signified a breakthrough in my mothering position, which I’d like to share here. I came to understand that the distinction between imposing and motivating is also a key tenet of pure coaching, which prohibits coaches from giving advice or any other form of guidance.

Fear or Anxiety vs. Courage

What is the opposite of Fear or Anxiety vs. Courage? What will happen to clients who claim they need a plan or more clarity? What exactly are they seeking? When you use these types of questions to test a client, they frequently respond that they will feel better about themselves, have more peace of mind, and feel better about themselves as a result. To me, courage is what it takes to get there. The courage to delve deeper, the courage to reflect on what is under your control while facing hard truths, the courage to name unpleasant emotions, the courage to – at times – accept that you are not ready to move on and view this as a lesson. Courage will enable one to deviate from the norm and take decisions, but getting there may take some time.

A Coaching Model: Confidence, Growth, and Innovation

Confidence, growth, and innovation are the three pillars on which my coaching model is built, and I view them as being interconnected. To me, self-assurance is a skill that can be developed through practice, growth is a mindset that can be attained, and innovation is an output that is either novel or distinctive and valuable in the market, and it is made possible by the two concepts mentioned before. The coaching process as a whole, my coaching style, and the tools I’m thinking about using will all be framed by these three pillars. As a career coach, my goal is to support people who are willing to reflect on their current level of job satisfaction, identify their core values and comprehend why these values are significant for their career, as well as explore their options, visualize, and create their own path.

Evaluating Career Match Qualities Through Coaching

A Research Paper By Angela Stockinger
Career Coach, SPAIN

We now have a different perspective on our professional lives as a result of all these changing circumstances, and in this regard, two concepts, in particular, stand out to me: belonging and growth. In responses to employee surveys, both have been mentioned more frequently, with words like “development,” “growth,” “promotion,” “training,” “inclusivity,” “teamwork,” and “team fit” showing up more frequently. I want to explore coaching concepts like self-awareness, healthy explanatory styles, and the growth mindset in greater detail in this research paper on evaluating career match qualities through coaching, all in the context of the ongoing assessment of our compatibility.

One technique that is often used in coaching is visualization because it is difficult to do this without some kind of image. In this research paper, I explore why a visualization is an effective tool for helping our clients achieve their own goals, and how it opens up a world of possibilities for realizing those aspirations. This research paper only briefly touches on a few applications of visualization in coaching. Also not covered in detail is the vast study that has been conducted on the subject.

In the majority of people’s lives, there comes a time when they feel that their existing circumstance is no longer beneficial. Sometimes, it’s for apparent reasons, including when their situation has altered or when their career has reached a plateau. The Covid pandemic has made all of this even more clear to so many of us, leading to what is now being referred to as “The Great Resignation,” in which a large number of people are considering leaving their current positions in search of something more meaningful. With the help of an Uncertainty vs. Curiosity power tool coaching, you’ll learn how to explore this new phase of your life with a positive attitude and embark on a new path confident, strong, and ready for action.

The SEEDING

Taking an honest look at your current situation, goals, and objectives can be difficult and daunting. A good coach can help you at this point to find the solutions, and you can use this invitation to get in touch with the little person you once were, who is now carrying a magnificent backpack of talents, skills, and experiences that will enable you to design a fulfilling life that has meaning and purpose on your terms. SEEDING is the name of the 6-step coaching method I created. The seed has all the information it needs to grow into a beautiful tree, just like in the natural world. It only has to be planted in rich soil, and with enough attention, it will develop into a powerful tree that will provide the ecosystem and conditions needed for other life to coexist peacefully with its presence.

Thinking vs. Feeling

A Coaching Power Tool By Ziad Hamdan
Life Coach, SPAIN

When confronted with a challenge, a problem, a question, or an important decision, we tend to use our minds to come up with solutions to the problem, solve the problem, answer the question, or make the decision. And, in many cases, we rush into our thinking patterns without taking the time to thoroughly understand the situation. My power tool allows you to grow by balancing thinking vs. feeling. You’re in the driver’s seat, and you’re being directed to change your viewpoint.
