What happens in a typical coaching session? 
As you plan for your coaching session, you will complete a Call Preparation sheet that outlines this week’s wins and opportunities, challenges, and specifically how you would like to focus this call. You forward this to me beforehand so that I may reflect on approaches to take. During the call we will check in and follow key items in your preparation sheet. The bulk of the time will be spent on the focus you identified. Sometimes we look at available options and their impact, other times I may offer suggestions, models, suggested readings, ideas, etc. Over time, we get to know each other well and your situation is on my mind so that I often send you items to support your progress. Your desires, feelings, and fears are discussed according to your comfort level. It’s an intuitive experience for us both.
What To Expect In The Coaching Process
Sample Coaching Session: This telephone session is provided so that you can experience the impact of coaching and to test compatibility. It is free, and there is no sales pitch or obligation. At the end of the session, I will ask if you want to continue coaching and either a yes or no answer is OK.
Coaching Information Package: When you sign up for a complimentary session, you will receive links to information on the coaching experience, policies and pricing structure, as well as an intake form/agreement. There is no obligation.
Welcome Session: In our first session we discuss what you want to achieve and review the Coaching Package. We’ll develop concrete coaching goals and outcomes and make a commitment for a specified period of time. You will also let me know how you would like to pay for the sessions.
Fees: The Coaching fee is a monthly one, and is paid in advance. You will choose between two programs: Executive – one hour sessions @ $500/mo or Success – half hour sessions @ $250/mo. Your choice will depend on your style and your pocketbook. You can pay monthly or for a reduced rate, the contracted period of six months. I accept cheques or you can pay with Visa or Master Card using Pay Pal. I provide invoices and receipts. Telephone long distance charges are covered by me. Appropriate taxes apply.
Coaching Sessions: We meet weekly for three weeks followed by a skipped week, when you can “catch up”. You’ll have a regular day and call time each week. Sessions are uninterrupted and are 30 or 60 min. long (depending on which package you opt for). There is work to do between sessions, and you’ll plan for each session. You set the pace.
Ongoing Support: You can call, live chat or e-mail if you need to discuss something, need a resource or want to share a success, at no extra cost. I call these Impromptu Sessions because they are not planned and last only 5-10 min.
