wHAT IS COACHING?
The International Coaching Federation defines coaching as:
"partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximize their personal and professional potential."
At Anchor and Aim, we work with you to leverage your core strengths, identify common blind spots, and ground yourself in healthy work and relational practices. This process helps you engage with your work in a more emotionally intelligent and powerful way, resulting in resilience and confidence.
We believe that cultivating professional development and mental health are vital to making our modern workplace sustainable.
We provide Coaching and consulting. So...What's the difference?
In Coaching, the starting point is mental and emotional health. Questions and assessments are meant to promote learning, discovery, and growth. Time is spent looking at present circumstances and future movement. The results are action and confidence.
Consulting provides much-needed expertise and assistance. It focuses on processes and serves the client by offering suggestions and advice. The results are action and change.
In Counseling, the starting point is mental or emotional struggle and trauma. Questions and assessments are meant to diagnose and treat. Much of the focus of counseling is spent on the past and healing wounds. The results are understanding and acceptance.
