What is Coaching?
Coaching is a process of human enhancement that helps you to develop competencies, aiming to reach your professional or personal goals and dreams, in a faster way and with more autonomy.
Even in case you are not clear yet about your goals but feel that you want a better life, the Coaching can be very useful to you.
Coaching is not therapy
While therapy makes a profound study of your history in order to understand your present behavior (past + present), the Coaching focus is on the present behavior to help you arrive where you want faster (present + future).
The process is fast – on average, it is possible to change or enhance a behavior each 10 or 12 meetings.
What to expect?
• More focus on task performance
• More assertiveness: position yourself in an honest, respectful and objective way
• Better team management
• More clarity about your goals
• More attention to your own feelings and emotions
• More satisfaction in any area of life
The Coaching can be applied to any life sector: professional (commonly named as Executive Coaching), health, financials, relationships and others.

How does the Coaching work?
Self-knowledge
In our fast-moving daily lives we rarely stop to evaluate our own behaviors, our reactions and how do we feel towards the events that happen to us.
Sometimes we hear from someone:
“I care more about the budget of the company I work for than my own”, or “I’m great at advising people but a lot of times I myself don’t know what to do”, or even “I’d love to change this habit I have, but when I notice, I’m in the process of repeating it again and again”.
The Coaching is a process that helps you to put focus on yourself and, as a result, your overall life becomes more satisfactory. When you ask yourself some questions you have the chance to give yourself the attention you deserve and get a better balance in life:
From time to time, ask yourself these questions and check your progress.
• Who am I? What do I really want/wish? What is my life purpose?
• How do I know if I am satisfied in every area of my life?
• Am I satisfied with my career and with what I’ve achieved so far?
• Am I leaving a legacy to the people around me?
• Do I have any dreams that I’d like to fulfill?
• Are there any obstacles that are not allowing me to reach what I want?
• Am I conscious about the impact I have on the people that work with me?
• Do I keep complaining about the life I have? What have I been doing to improve my situation?
• What is my main concern?
• Do I know what I need to do to define my goals and to avoid any behaviors that may not be helpful?
• What if I adopted a new behavior from now on? What needs to happen so I can do it?
• What have I learned from an event that I considered sad or negative?
• What is fact and what is my perception or interpretation of the reality?
• What is my responsibility in everything that happens to me?
