Business Coaching and Tools For It

Coaching is a set of efforts and techniques focused on the human team of a company or organization.

It is intended to achieve both the effectiveness in the results and the motivation and personal satisfaction of the workers, whatever their level.

Coaching is a direct action on the people who are the true authors and responsible for business competitiveness.

What are the instruments of business coaching
To achieve its two objectives, business and personal, coaching begins with the selection of people , in particular managers and executives, who are selected not so much for what they know but for what they are. Personality criteria are studied and they are put in a position to observe properties such as the ability to communicate, the aptitudes in the face of pressure or risk, the natural ability to lead, to work as a team, etc.

Coaching is focused on allowing people to give the best of themselves and thus uses training , both practical skills such as the address of a computer or customer- care as personal development through communication, of self-confidence or reduction of emotional stress .

People do not usually stop doing things because we do not know how to do them, but because they do not want us or because there is a brake that prevents us. That’s why the motivation factor is fundamental to achieve results. Motivation, like faith, moves mountains. Coaching here justifies its name (training) by analyzing the brakes of motivation, provoking a new situation based on personal and group motivation .

And coaching knows that a team needs an organization in which each one knows and assumes the common objectives; implies a discipline freely consented to the procedures and rules necessary for the effectiveness of the whole. And since nobody fights so much for an organization as when it has helped to create it, coaching helps group members define it, structure it and put it into action .

Coaching is like the psychologist of the group, it helps the members to affirm and structure the personality of the company , but it is never replaced. It is directive in the form, but not in the background. It contributes methodology and experience but its purpose is to help the company to mature (in the group sense) and disappear after its mission of assistance.

How coaching differs from counseling
The advisor is a specialist in a business discipline, such as finance, production or marketing. Coaching is a specialist in the functioning of teams and in personal development.

Where the consultant provides specific solutions to a problem, the coach allows the group or the decision maker to find the solutions; your solutions In terms of business management, we realize that there are not as many good or bad strategies. There are those that one is able to apply and those that are not. What can be a good approach or a good strategy for one can be terrible or inapplicable for another. Coaching avoids the problem because the solutions are always adapted to the group that has generated them.
