Course FAQ's

What does a typical session look like?

Sessions are conversational and tailored to your needs. You’ll be invited to reflect on specific conflict dynamics, explore underlying beliefs, and practise communication strategies that support your goals.

In your first session, the coach will outline the approach and key principles, then guide you through a flexible process shaped by your priorities. You set the direction, the coach helps you focus and clarify.

Many individuals benefit from short term support, 1-3 sessions, such as when preparing for a conversation or navigating a current conflict situation.

For deeper reflection and skills development, 4 – 6 sessions spaced out bi-weekly or monthly may support change.

Some clients may wish to invest in longer term coaching, such as if working in a high-pressure environment where conflict and tension occur regularly.

Yes, what is discussed during the coaching session is confidential.

If the coachee has been referred it will be agreed at the start of the process what information may be passed on.  Some clients may wish to include a three-way review of progress between the coach, coachee and referrer, but it is still down to the coachee what is shared.

There are many coaching models which follow a similar framework. Coaches may draw on theory and concepts from their experience as Mediators as well as other disciplines.

The steps include consideration of goals, exploring the situation and clarifying key areas of focus, consideration of options and confirming what happens next.

We currently refer to the GROW Model (Whitmore, 1992) which is performance and improvement focussed and the CINERGY Model (Noble, 1999) which builds on the skills and knowledge of coaching, dispute resolution practice and neuroscience.
