Coaching is not just for athletes anymore. Now, everyone can benefit from having a coach!
Great athletes have traditionally used the power of coaching to heighten their performance levels. A coach is there to observe, support, and point out ways to improve performance and reach goals. Now, the power of coaching is available to you in your personal and professional life. Working with a coach gives you personal leverage to create the results and fulfillment that you desire to have in your life.

What is coaching?
Coaching is a partnership between a coach and client (lets say "you") whose main purpose is your success and well-being. A coach's role is to bring out your best and to provide ongoing support for your personal and professional development and achievement. Coaching often involves gaining insight into what is most important to you in terms of lifestyle, values and goals to develop a personalized plan of action to make your aspirations and dreams a reality.

How long does it last?
The duration of coaching depends upon individual needs and/or requirements. A coach can be hired for a specific project or for an unlimited period of time. Generally, we recommend a three month commitment to establish a relationship and to gauge progress over a period of time.

How does it work?
You come ready and willing to create the life that you want. We meet to get to know each other and to discuss the goals and desires you want to realize in your life. You are matched up with a coach to discuss how the coaching will work. Typically, a coaching session lasts for 30-60 minutes each week, during which you will develop an action plan that you will carry out. The coaching will focus on areas of your choosing: career, relationships, health, finances, home, etc.

How much does it cost?
Coaching fees are most often billed on a monthly basis but can also be arranged on a special project basis. The monthly coaching fee is a "retainer" fee, not an hourly fee. This means that the coach is available to the client between sessions, if need be, for brief communication. The coaching fees range in price depending upon how much coaching time is involved and whether the client is paying individually or is part of an organization that has contracted for the coaching. Generally, the monthly coaching fee for an individual ranges in price from $400-600. For $400, a client would receive four(4) forty-five minute coaching sessions per month, and for $500-600, four(4) one-hour coaching sessions per month(the $600 fee refers to a few highly specialized coaches). The coaching fees for an individual in an organization are higher and are often an established fee set by the organization.

Coaching is also available on a special project basis for situations that require unique attention that is not served effectively by the monthly coaching format. Special project fees as based on a hourly fee and are designed to meet the client's particular requirements.
