Individual guidance and coaching
Coaching is a targeted method of guidance, aimed at the optimal functioning of people in their work. Self-insight and the strengthening of existing qualities are central to this. Our approach, where possible, is questioning and reflective; and where necessary, directive. We ask questions that push the boundaries of the current perspective and shed new light on underlying themes. This involves, on the one hand, directly changing behaviour and, on the other, adapting ‘mental models’ and beliefs.
Our principles when coaching
- People can’t be developed. They develop themselves.
- Personality, motivation and capacity can hardly be changed, or only with great effort.
- We do, however, identify these and use them as a starting point for further development.
- Insight is more effective than trial and error.
- Insight comes from the inside; from the outside it can only be supported.
