We're passionate about coaching...
|
At Coaching Direct, it is our stated mission to make coaching accessible to everyone, whenever they need it.
We could talk to you at length about the power coaching can have on an individual and on raising performance and motivation within an organisational context but our statistics and case studies speak for themselves. For us, being able to evidence and quantify the power of coaching is what sets us apart. |

Back in 2008 our founder, Kirsty, had a vision to create a coaching consultancy that wouldn't simply see us 'parachute' in a coach to deliver coaching services to work with our clients, but would meaningfully support businesses to develop their people and get tangible business results. In order to achieve this vision, we embarked upon a radical redesign of our service offering, supported by our team of experienced associates, all of whom come from a wide-ranging corporate background. Coupled with industry leading technology, we've built a system for the accurate measurement of coaching impact allowing us to provide our clients with a fully managed service model, thus overseeing the whole process from coach/client matching, scheduling, real-time client reporting and themes emerging. We have the ability to scale-up to meet your needs, whether you're an organisation with 5 employees or 500 and our tiered fee structure means that we can support the growth of executives, middle managers and aspiring managers. We are the trusted training partner to Scotland's leading professional services firms, delivering scalable and measurable coaching services as well as in-house training and workshops. |
Coaching
|
Coaching is a life changing technique which moves its users forward to achieve goals; personal or professional. We adopt a six-session approach to coaching which will enable you to move forward and achieve your goals in a relatively short space of time. Our Associates come from a range of professional backgrounds and adhere strictly to the ethics and competencies set out by the UK's leading coaching body, the Association for Coaching®, of which we are members and an accredited training partner.
To support you in your coaching journey, and where appropriate, we use diagnostic tools such as the EQ-i 2.0 to determine your emotional intelligence levels at a start and end point, providing you with an in-depth analysis of areas of EI that you excel in, and areas where you can develop. We also use the Strengths Profile in individual and team coaching settings, to explore what you love to do and what exhausts you. Our coaching can be delivered in-person or online. |

Coaching Consultancy
|
Coaching works, there's no doubt about it. What we often can't do though is prove the impact of coaching. That's where metrics come in handy! Coaching Direct works with organisations large and small to provide expert consultancy on the strategic use of coaching, using metrics and reporting tools. We also work with business leaders to help them build organisational and performance objectives which focus around the development of their businesses through their people. |
Coaching Managed Service
|
One of the main worries clients have around implementing a managed service model is that of consistency and quality. Our managed service model aims to eradicate that worry, with robust coach screening, seamless matching of your staff to the right coach, ongoing scheduling and provision of meaningful management information to supply you with the information you need to make key organisational decisions.
Outsourcing your coaching to Coaching Direct will support you in removing the administrative overheads associated with managing a team of coaches, and will allow you to take a step back and see how coaching in the workplace can significantly improve performance and staff engagement and wellbeing. With a proven track record in delivering high volume coaching to organisations, Coaching Direct will work with you to identify your goals and deliver a fully managed coaching service, project-managed entirely by us and supported by industry leading technology. |
