Help with Coaching2Grow

Coaching2Grow provides coaching across 3 broad areas:

1. Significant career and life decisions - Vision section
2. Specific work skills - especially ''Develop how'' under Grow section.
3. Common problems executives encounter - see Adapt.

Questions are used extensively throughout Coaching2Grow to stimulate your thinking for all three areas, but practical tips are offered more often for the latter two. To help you make significant career and life decisions, a framework is offered to facilitate your own decision making rather than provide a lot of direction.

To get the most out of Coaching2Grow, explore topics of interest to you, do your own thinking and record how your views and feelings change as a result. The Coaching2Grow Personal Growth Workbook is there to download for you to record your reflections and for planning and managing your personal development.

Use the Coaching2Grow forums and chat pages to discuss your thoughts with others who are exploring similar topics. If you want further coaching beyond Coaching2Grow, make contact with a personal mentor or executive coach who can provide coaching face to face, via email or the telephone.

Self development is not something we can do in our heads. The best learning occurs through trying new approaches to familiar situations in the real world. To get the most out of Coaching2Grow, therefore, use it only as a starting point for pilot projects where you experiment with new ways of doing things and then return to Coaching2Grow to reflect on what has changed for you.
