Time to reassess?
  • Do you dread Mondays? Or feel an urge to try something new?
  • What skills do you need to polish to be a high-performing leader?
  • What do you really, really want to do with your life?

Our habits and ways of thinking are deeply ingrained. Change is challenging and not often fruitful, despite good intentions. We're ambivalent and hesitant about trying something different - and yet we yearn for it!

One path that hundreds of professionals and leaders are discovering to be productive is to hire a coach, to assist and support them through the challenges of change and growth.

You are ready for coaching when you:

  • can't tolerate another month or year of "more of the same"
  • yearn to discover your true potential, even if you're unsure what that is
  • have creative dreams and plans that you long to express
  • are tired of feeling stuck or trapped
  • are ready and motivated to get into action
  • need a non-judgmental outside resource to help you hone your leadership vision and style.

What is coaching?

Imagine having regular access to someone committed to your success.
  • Someone who listens deeply, and spurs you by asking provocative, insightful questions
  • Someone who helps you set exciting goals.
  • Someone who keeps you moving, focused, and learning about yourself 
  • Someone who keeps you accountable
  • Someone who truly sees your talents and skills 
  • Someone who rejoices in your triumphs, both big and small
  • Someone off whom you can bounce all kinds of ideas, however extravagant and adventurous.

That "someone" is a coach....... your partner in success.

"I knew my life was supposed to be something other than it was. I had dreams and visions but they were out of focus and vague.  Philippa’s coaching helped me reel them in and make them a blueprint for reality.
A path towards the seemingly impossible comes with its pitfalls.  Philippa’s grounded sensitivity and wisdom brought solid support in dark times.
Now my dreams have taken on a life of their own and won’t let me go.

Why work with a coach?

However motivated and capable, most of us struggle to see ourselves objectively and to fully use our unique skills and talents.

Limiting inner voices hold us back, throw up obstacles, and keep us from realizing our full potential. 

These voices have us believe we must pay attention to the things we "should" or "shouldn't" do, rather than those that we truly "want" or "don't want" to do.

A coach:

  • helps you identify the obstructive inner voices that play on your fears
  • supports you to get past obstacles
  • helps you discover your work or life purpose, name your most important values, and live according to what is most important to you
  • assists you setting and achieving meaningful goals that "stick"
  • highlights your talents, encourages you to build on them, and strengthens skills in need of attention
  • champions your efforts and cheers you on.

__________________________________________________________

Philippa, you motivate me to try harder each day and keep going even when I don't want to. I get such rewards from you, it is just amazing. I had the worst week last week and yet the moment I heard your voice I rallied and moved forward. If that is not a gifted ability to motivate, cheer on, coach and support me, then what is?

I cannot thank you enough. You have given me the strength and the tools to focus and get a big load off my shoulders.

The Vision Realization ProcessTM

Coaching is a RELATIONSHIP. It takes place over time. Each relationship between a coach and a client is unique. 

Oya Consulting has developed The Vision Realization ProcessTM to ensure that you get great results from this relationship!

The Vision Realization ProcessTM offers the following:

  • As your coach, I commit to your becoming the finest person you can be, and having the life or career you dream of!
  • The program is personalized, tailored just for your needs
  • You create a daring, clear vision of the future
  • You identify your core values - an essential tool for ALL your decision-making
  • I use visualization exercises, just as top athletes and performers do, to get in touch with inspiring mental images
  • I help you set s-t-r-e-t-c-h goals, that permit a big challenge to be broken into smaller, achievable steps
  • You do "homework" between meetings, to take responsibility for getting into action right away 
  • You commit to an initial four months of coaching so that you can reap benefits by achieving at least one significant goal
  • We meet by telephone so that you can be efficient with your time and can reach me from any part of the country
  • We spend time during a detailed initial assessment to get well acquainted, so that you can get to work right away
  • You have a choice of three or four 45-minute or 60-minute sessions a month, to match your preferred learning style and intensity. If we need to work in some other way, I am happy to plan that with you
  • I offer a FREE 40-minute introductory telephone coaching meeting, if you are curious but uncertain about coaching, so that you can get a sense of how coaching works and if we are a good "fit".

With the Vision Realization ProcessTM I:

  • Conduct an initial assessment
  • Clarify vision and values 
  • Prioritize and select goals
  • Jointly design your agenda for growth and change
  • Have you move toward selected goals by taking immediate smaller steps
  • Participate in three or four meetings a month
  • Each meeting, create accountability for your action steps
  • Review successes in the following meeting
  • Review incomplete action steps as well, to discover what got in the way and what you learned from this
  • Make adjustments, to succeed next time
  • Commit to The Vision Realization ProcessTM for a minimum of four months
