What is our approach to coaching?
At Think Smart we believe that effective, flexible thinking skills and emotional intelligence need to be the core of our being. It�s these personal leadership skills, not just different ways of working, which will help us to keep pace with change and achieve the outcomes we want in our work and our lives.
To help our clients develop these skills we coach in a Thinking Environment.
|
Thinking Environment Coaching has been described by coaching experts as the most effective client-centred coaching method on the market. It�s probably held in such esteem because:
-
It puts the independent thinking of the client first in its aims.
-
It allows clients to think for themselves; to go beyond dependence on the coach�s views.
-
It makes it possible for the client to come up with their own ideas, directions, understanding and solutions.
-
It is a unique and exquisite coaching process; staggeringly powerful, accurate and liberating for the client; rich in results for both the client and the organisation.

What makes our coaching model different from others?
As the Thinking Environment Coach our expertise is to draw from you your own solutions and ideas. Our role is to help you think for yourself; not to do your thinking for you. Research shows that you have the best answers to your own questions.
We will give you ideas, direction and insight only after you have searched for yours and we will offer you our thoughts and perspectives only if you specifically ask us to.

 |
Our ease with you and the quality of our attention will speed up your thinking. It�s likely you will achieve more than you dreamt possible.
Our expertise is a process of behaving with you in 10 ways that will keep you thinking for yourself. Our questions will be carefully constructed and specific to help you explore, identify and remove any obstacles to your goal.
For pragmatic reasons, our behaviour and our responses during the sessions will be based on a particular view of human nature and life. It asserts that you are inherently good e.g. intelligent, multi-talented, able to think about anything, free to make real choices about your life and your feelings, loving, aware of others, eager for solutions, imaginative and worthy of good outcomes.
How is our model the same as most others?
-
Coaching in a Thinking Environment is safe and confidential.
-
You will be asked to clarify your goals for the coaching programme.
