Coaching is a conversation between two people …
The differences and similarities can be found in their perspectives, aims, techniques and precision of word play each field uses to articulate itself.
At first glance, the GROW model looks like a neat, linear path — Goal, Reality, Options, Way Forward. But in practice, the art of coaching rarely moves in straight lines. Human growth loops, spirals, pauses, and revisits. With time, great coaches learn to dance with that rhythm.
Behind every transformative conversation is a coach who knows how to listen — to words, and to the spaces between them. Coaching is not about fixing. It is about witnessing potential and holding the mirror steady while the client begins to see.
Every great coach needs a compass.
Before the methods, models, and metrics — there must be a clear sense of why. Our vision and mission are that grounding force. They remind us who we are, what we stand for, and who we serve.
Every effective coaching session rests on a quiet foundation of structure, skill, and presence. The most successful coaches are seldom those who say the most, but those who hold the space most skillfully — listening deeply, asking purposefully, and keeping the client’s growth at the centre.
Ethics is the quiet backbone of professional coaching. It’s what gives the practice its integrity — a shared standard that protects the client, honours the profession, and keeps we as coaches aligned with truth.
