WHAT YOU CAN LEARN

Here are the key takeaways from Ruchira that you can apply in your professional life.

What Coaching Is:

Coaching is helping someone discover their strengths.
Coaching is about maximizing performance and potential.
Coaching is about guiding and advising; not about solving someone’s problems for them.
Coaching is asking, not telling. It’s the what, not the why.

The 4 Cornerstones of Coaching:

Capability: Helps you be the best that you can be, unleashes your unique potential, sparks creativity, innovativeness, lateral thinking; helps you excel and hack your way up that ladder
Consciousness: Helps you become more aware of who you are
Confidence: Gives you self-belief to go forward
Clarity: Gives you direction; helps you arrange the knots in your head AND TO MAKE THESE CORNERSTONES COME ALIVE, WE NEED TO CREATE A CULTURE OF COACHING
