Professional Development Coaching Package

Our first session will consist of introductions. We’ll discuss roles, responsibilities, and expectations during our coaching engagements. We’ll also identify goals and develop a plan of action for you to achieve these goals. Throughout our continuing sessions, we’ll explore any challenges you are facing, identify and examine opportunities, implement practices, and enable accountability as we constantly evaluate progress together. At our final session, we’ll assess our engagement during the coaching process, reflect upon the growth you’ve made, and identify future goals as your journey continues.

As a credentialed coach and member of the International Coaching Federation (ICF), our coaching sessions will remain confidential in accordance with the ICF Code of Ethics. As your professional coach, I have an ethical duty and responsibility to not disclose any information obtained during the course of our coaching relationship without your expressed permission as the right to confidentiality belongs to you as the client.

Coaches have the ability to set their own costs for the services they provide. With this said, it is encouraged that individuals and organizations who are interested in receiving coaching services conduct their due diligence to assess whether one's coaching fees are reasonable for the services rendered in the current market. In order to become more informed as a consumer, I recommend exploring the answers to the following questions below, which I have personally used as a guide when I seek coaching services. Ultimately, coaching is truly an investment in one’s continued professional development where one should assess the fair market value, quality, and cost of the services being offered. 

1) Can a coach’s claimed professional qualifications and accomplishments be verified?

2) Is the coach a member of the International Coaching Federation or a similar coaching organization?

3) Does the coach possess any credentials or certifications associated with the coaching profession? 

4) Can such credentials or certifications be independently verified? 

5) Does the coach seek continuing training and education in order to bolster their coaching capabilities? 

6) Does the amount of coaching experience a coach has accumulated, coupled with their training, credentials, and certifications, personally justify to you the amount that is being charged for services? 

Part of working with me as a coach is that I will ask a lot of you - maybe more than you have ever been asked. Please be willing to experiment with fresh approaches and be open to new ideas. This will help you to reach your goals and live an integrated and fulfilled professional life, using the gifts you have and honoring your professional values more easily.

With that said, please be willing to:
• Trust the Coaching Process
• Experiment with New Ideas
• Be Coached as a Whole Person
• Design the Coaching Plan Together
• Trust Your Gut; Your Instincts; Your Intuition
• Tap into Your Creativity and Resourcefulness
• Commit to Agreed-Upon Number of Sessions
• Set Goals and Commit to Accomplishing Them
• Get the Support You Need to Address Areas of Opportunity
• Set the Agenda for Each Coaching Meeting; It’s All About You
• Be Responsible for YOUR Results. Your Success is directly related to Your Commitment and Efforts Made

Coaching draws out the intelligence and wisdom of the client rather than taking on a role of advising or being an expert consultant. Likewise, therapeutic or counseling approaches are distinct and different from coaching’s methodology. However, coaching can address personal issues (if you want to) or life conditions that have an impact on professional effectiveness.

Our coaching partnership is based on mutual trust and respect. If I say or do anything that is at odds with our agreed-upon way of working, please let me know. If at any time, you want to redefine our agreement, please tell me. I am committed to working with you to produce outcomes you seek, in a manner that works best for you.
