That’s what coaching is all about. Isn’t it?
A dear team colleague recently pointed me to a rather outdated, but still valid article: https://www.coaching-magazin.de/kontrovers/machbarkeitswahn-und-menschenbilder-im-coaching. It discusses the coach’s promises and the coachee’s wishes in a constructive and controversial way.
In fact, there are so many great promises in the marketing of esteemed fellow coaches … so much bullshit bingo. Often from coaches who have little leadership responsibility of their own, but who supposedly represent ingenious concepts in leadership coaching. Promises are just good for the coach’s wallet.
What do we coaches at Transformation Manufaktur actually do for you? Do we bring miraculous stability? Or miraculous change?
No: you are you. We don’t work miracles, we don’t bake a new person out of you.
No: We are not trying to make you or your HR team feel good. We are not a wellbeing-wellness coaching boutique. We identify conscious or unconscious harmful behavior patterns and tackle them.
Yes: We work with you to uncover your patterns and their causes. We understand and practice alternative behavior with you. We show you how your different inner parts and drivers can contribute to this. We stabilize you and change you as a result.
And that gives you strength, autonomy and sovereignty. Freedom from automated, unwanted processes, freedom to behave differently, freedom for yourself and your inner team.
