As a graduate of the Institute for Professional Excellence in Coaching (iPEC), Mike is trained and certified in the style of Life Coaching known as “CORE ENERGY COACHING’.  This type of coaching is a process by which a trained professional helps bring out the absolute best in a client, be it a person, couple, family, or corporation.  This process is done by emotionally connecting one’s inner purpose and passion to outer goals and tasks to bring about extraordinary results.

There are various ways to describe the coach/client relationship and experience…..each way is accurate and relevant and demonstrates the highly personal impact effective coaching has on a client- although the definitions may differ, there is universal agreement that coaching is inspiring, fulfilling, purposeful, and yields long-lasting results:  

Coaches anchor people to their own internal strengths; they inspire organizations to dream beyond their plans.  They apply emotional and intellectual intelligence to the long haul of life and work.  Coaches facilitate the change that clients need as they prepare to face the future with strength and optimism.

In each meeting, the client chooses the focus of conversation, while the coach listens and contributes observations and questions.  This interaction creates clarity and moves the client into action.  Coaching accelerates the client’s progress by providing greater focus and awareness of choice.  Coaching concentrates on where clients are today and what they are willing to do to get where they want to be tomorrow:

Coaches

-        Help people set better goals and then reach those goals
