• To help a person change in the way they wish and helping them go in the direction they want to go.

• Coaching supports a person at every level in becoming who they want to be.

• Coaching builds awareness empowers choice and leads to change.

It unlocks a person’s potential to maximise their performance. Coaching helps them to learn rather than teaching them.
