Bill Baker Counselling and Consultancy

Executive Coaching

Executive Coaching is tailor made to fit into your schedule. I will meet you at your offices or we can set up a meeting at a neutral location convenient to you.

This is an opportunity to create a space separated from the usual pressures, entirely confidential, empathic and supportive.

Coaching for corporate change

Change hits you often when you least expect it. Like a storm at sea it can come suddenly from nowhere or there may be small signs long before - signs often seen only in retrospect.

In fact 'change' in business is something every executive knows and often has attended numerous courses about it. But it is different when we are immersed in the change ourselves either administering it or suffering it. Stress levels can rise alarmingly.

Coaching for career change

Support can be vital during periods of career change. It could be that you have an executive who appears to be a square peg in a round hole! Maybe you are that executive.

Counselling can help the individual recognise their situation within the organisation and take realistic decisions on how to deal with it.

With redundancy or dismissal change comes at us from outside but sometimes the urge for change wells up from inside, driving us to take action. Maybe because that job, that career no longer fits, perhaps because of bullying, harassment or stress.

And sometimes that is only the trigger for something that is in us anyway, the urge for a change, the drive to something new...

In these crossroad situations, the space to discover what YOU really want is not a luxury, it is a necessity before you plan the next move...

Theory of Coaching

The idea of coaching derives from sport where the athlete's coach is acknowledged as a vital ingredient in a winning peformance.

Coaching
Coaching has been defined as, "A collaborative solution-focused, results-orientated and systematic process in which the coach facilitates the enhancement of work performance, life experience, self-directed learning and personal growth of the coachee." (Anthony Grant, University of Sydney, 2000)

Business and Executive Coaching
Executive coaching is, "specifically focused at senior management level where there is an expectation for the coach to feel as comfortable exploring business related topics, as personal development topics with the client in order to improve their personal performance."
(Definitions quoted from the Association for Coaching)
