What
is Catalytic Coaching?
It is a transformational process that teaches
you by example how to be
your own coach, to be a catalyst for intentional
creation. You learn how to get out of your own
way, stay true to your commitments, and get out
of your comfort zone to achieve the results you
want. It is focused on your choices through intentional
declarations and committed action.
Catalytic coaching starts with where you are
and looks at where you want to go. It also uncovers
what has consistently stopped you, working to
remove those obstacles.
Catalytic coaching employs experiential learning
. . .
learning new skills by doing
them. |
