It\u2019s about taking time to grow in awareness, notice patterns, open up new perspectives, and choose between possibilities. Being accompanied by a coach can make this even more fruitful. Frequently, you not only address what matters to you, but also find yourself growing in confidence and capacity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What might I hope to accomplish by working with a coach? <\/strong>Just a few examples, out of many possibilities:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>\u2022 Clarifying \u2013 e.g. a good way forward (or what I could have done instead)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2022 Growing \u2013 e.g. in effectiveness, fruitfulness and freedom<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2022 Making sense \u2013 e.g. of a complicated situation, or ourselves, or others<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2022 Unsticking \u2013 when we feel stuck or blocked in some way<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2022 And anything else which routine thinking isn\u2019t progressing<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Will you tell me what to do? <\/strong>We will work together to find ways of growing your awareness &#8211; of your situation, your priorities and your options. Then I\u2019ll help you discern which choices you want to make, and support you to step forward with confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Session length? <\/strong>Typically 90 minutes; sometimes 60.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Frequency? <\/strong>Monthly is a frequent option. More or less frequent is also possible &#8211; including the occasional one-off session.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>How can I explore working with you? <\/strong>Email to arrange a preliminary no-obligation chat (jk@jkimber.co.uk). We can talk about the sort of territory you\u2019d like to explore, and how many sessions you might want. And we\u2019ll both get a feel for whether we might work well together \u2013 a \u2018chemistry\u2019 check. If not, that\u2019s fine. If so, we\u2019ll put some dates in the diary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>So what might happen next? <\/strong>You might sign up for a number of sessions &#8211; typically 6 or 10. Meeting several times makes it possible to explore more deeply, celebrate and strengthen progress, and explore unanticipated challenges and opportunities. Alternatively, you might start with one or two sessions as tasters, then make a more informed choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What actually happens in a coaching session? <\/strong>We start by clarifying what you hope to accomplish, in order to focus most effectively. Then we invest time in exploring perspectives and possibilities, before ending well, including gaining clarity regarding next steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\">Or, from another angle: we both work &#8211; through questions, pondering, thinking, feeling &#8211; to grow in clarity and awareness, helping you choose well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What drew you to become a coach? <\/strong>I love seeing people tackle challenge constructively, and grow in their ability to do so. It\u2019s a great privilege to accompany others as they steadily come to see more clearly, live life more wholeheartedly, and grow in fulfilment, effectiveness and fruitfulness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>How have you been formed as a coach? <\/strong>My first training was with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.3dcoaching.com\/\">3D Coaching <\/a>(2016), then more substantially with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aoec.com\/\">AOEC<\/a> in London (2023-4), gaining their Practitioner Diploma in Executive Coaching. (\u2018Executive coaching\u2019 refers to people in organisations &#8211; rather than just to Chief Executives.) I am accredited with the <a href=\"https:\/\/coachingfederation.org\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/coachingfederation.org\/\">International Coaching Federation<\/a> (ACC) . I receive regular professional supervision for my coaching.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What does coaching offer?
