Who Benefits From Our Coaching?

Almost anyone can benefit from coaching! The most common reason people or organizations hire a coach is the desire to grow productively and/or to be fulfilled and happy – a desire often sparked by crisis. Most clients find that they are able to pursue their goals more successfully with the support of our coaching. Clear Intentions will support you in becoming more effective and reaching your goals by working with you to identify and clear the issues, circumstances, patterns of belief and behavior that hold you back. This ongoing process creates a powerful momentum, one that ripples through all aspects of your professional and personal life.

Our services are as diverse as our clients, and tailored to meet your unique needs. We work with individuals, teams or specialized groups, such as an entire department or organization. No assignment is too big or too small if we are the company for you. Our prerequisite of a “perfect fit” between client and provider allows us to guarantee our services. You can rest assured that we will take care of your needs with sensitivity, thoroughness, ingenuity and accountability.

How Do We Work (Programs)?

Individuals
Coaching for individuals consists of one-on-one confidential coaching sessions conducted either in person or over the phone. Most coaching sessions last between approximately 30 and 60 minutes each. Each coaching relationship typically begins with a three-month commitment for two to four sessions per month. Fees include coaching materials and other information that is given to the client both at the beginning the coaching relationship and as progress is made toward the goals they’ve identified. Beyond individual coaching sessions, additional support is also provided, via e-mail and phone calls, as needed.

Groups
If you like the support of others while working on your goals, group coaching is for you. In relaxed and supportive environments, like-minded individuals get together to move part of their life forward. Whether you fancy going on a world trip, finding the love of your life, or getting your house organized, group coaching will provide you with the perfect blend of skills, support and accountability. And, did we mention that it’s fun?

Teams
One of our specialties is working with teams, such as sales teams, family businesses and special task forces to name a few. By using assessments and team building exercises along with individual coaching, we make sure that your team is functioning at optimal speed and capacity.

What Kind of Issues Do We Address?

• Greater self-confidence and self-esteem
• Increasing clarity and direction toward your goals
• Increasing motivation and renewing enthusiasm for life
• Improving communication and listening skills and more effective decision-making
• Expanding levels of abundance, health and prosperity

Our Coaching Philosophy

Clear Intentions uses a “whole person model” as the basis for working with clients. Because human beings are complex, we find that the coaching process is most effective when many aspects of a person’s personality, behaviors, beliefs, and life/work circumstances are taken into consideration. We’ll work together to create deep emotional alignment around your goals, a process that will empower you and move all forces in the direction of your goal. Once this process is successfully completed, you will have the ability to coach yourself, effectively becoming your own “inner coach”.

What’s Kind of Results Do People Experience?

Your results will depend largely on the specific goals you set and your willingness to commit yourself to the coaching process. If your focus is on personal issues (life coaching) then most of your results will be in that area. However, it is not uncommon that business owners (business coaching) or executives (executive coaching) will experience many positive results in their personal lives as a by-product of growing their business or improving their leadership abilities.

In recent years, coaching has emerged as both a popular and powerful way to develop leadership skills. While not much research has been conducted in the area of life coaching, recent ROI studies conducted by MetrixGlobal, LLC, clearly demonstrate that leadership coaching consistently delivers business value. In general, the ROIs have been in the range of 500% to 700%. People who were coached developed according to a fundamental evolutionary process. Here are some general results:

• Clients become more focused and create the space to make change.
• Clients build stronger partnerships or strengthen peer relationships through more effective collaboration.
• Clients create alignment between intentions and actions, and align who they are with what they do.
• Clients take bolder and more original action to make positive change in their organizations.
