Value, Benefits And Cost Of A Self Discovery Coach

By Ryan West


Coaching on self discovery opens the eyes of participants and awakens their potential immensely. The impact of such training can be felt in human relationships, productivity and at personal level. For organizations and individuals hiring a self discovery coach will have a huge impact on your returns with results that could reverberate for the rest of your life if the program is well executed.

Coaching will bring the best in an individual. While most individuals will claim to be fully aware of their potential, coaches can spot something unique in them. Coaches see the extra dimension and will help you to overcome personal shortcomings to become a new or more focused person. Coaching helps you to double your effort and therefore achieve what you could not achieve through previous mentality.

Organizations that make room for coaching benefit from culture change. This can be compared to upgrading software in a production environment, a process that results in greater efficiency and improved productivity. By the end of coaching sessions, the employees feel empowered and have a change of perception. This organizational transformation will also lead to behavior change for employees. When it spills to the work habits of employees, their productivity improves drastically.

It is expensive to recruit and train new staff for organizations. Such individuals have not learnt the culture of the organization and will therefore be disruptive. However, through coaching, you enhance the capacity of an employee and therefore make retention easier. Such employees are also more responsible and will therefore give an easy time to managers. It becomes easier to meet the expectations of an organization when everyone takes charge of own growth.

Coaching helps organizations to create a pool of motivated and innovative employees. Coaching is magical in bringing the best in participants. Coaching sessions that focus on personal growth and organizational improvement will help these workers to more passionately embrace the vision and goals of the company. Through personal growth, the organization also grows.

The eyes of employees open when they undergo coaching. They realize that they can become more creative and also utilize other talents that lay idle or were lost in their daily struggles. You will experience a renewed urge to work from your team. It appears as if you have brought new members into the team yet you will not be paying for their services. You will spend less to coach the existing team compared to bringing in a new one.

Coaching is an expense at personal level and to any organization. There are several factors that determine the cost. They include training venue, number of participants, the coach hired and general organization of the sessions. The timing also affects cost since some seasons are busy for coaches. However, long term gains will help you cover for the cost of training. Always ensure that the coach and content are relevant to your needs.

Coaching is only effective and successful if it has the support of the management. When it is taking place at personal level, it must be as a result of personal initiative. You must dedicate time and resources as well as be ready to implement the change that comes with coaching. Further, you must be willing to drop the habits that will not bring you to the desired destination.
