Definition of coaching: Coaching serves us everywhere. From the company to our own lives. From the development of the client to changing our lives.
But what does it stand for? What does it mean for us? Which organizations? That's what we'll look at here. With a definition and the area of impact.
You will find out whether coaching is something for you and which approaches the coach will use to support you. Or which form of coaching is right for you.
The definition of coaching
It is always different. Depending on the area, the meaning of Coaching.
In general, however, there are a few key features. The coach helps the client in the coaching process. You will strengthen your skills.
You will set and achieve goals. And you will realize your potential.
Der Coach hilft Ihnen dabei, die Entwicklung in Ihrem Leben selbst zu beeinflussen. Zusammen erkennen Sie Hindernisse.
Sie klären die individuellen Needs of the client. You make strategies and plans and implement them. And in the end, you will receive the results of your work.
What does coaching mean?
There are also differences in coaching. There are various formats. Each with its own advantages, disadvantages and effectiveness. These include online sessions. It can also take place individually or in groups.
And depending on the person, it can be several times a week or just once a month.
The advantages? Coaching is an interactive and individualized
Approach. Damit ist es auf eine Person ausgerichtet. Damit kann es dessen Eigenschaften und Erreichen von selbst gewollten Zielen in den Vordergrund rücken. Gruppen-Coaching dient mehreren Personen gleichzeitig.
Der Zweck ist dabei oft die verbesserte Zusammenarbeit von Personen und Gruppen. Aus einer Gruppe wird ein Team gemacht. Die Mitglieder arbeiten Hand in Hand.

Areas of application of coaching
Diversity is the keyword for coaching. The goals of the coachees are always different. Personal self-development can become a priority. At the same time, however, coaching can also be advice for companies. Managers are often coached.
With individuals, the focus is on goals. Sometimes you have to recognize them first.
Sometimes a helping hand is enough. Sometimes you are faced with a major obstacle. The coach is your point of contact here, but many customers forget that the coach is always there for them, even at weekends.
You will get to know yourself and will be able to act more reflectively in the future. You will soon notice this change in your life.
Im Beruf gibt es weitere Faktoren. Durch Coaching verbessern Sie Ihre Fertigkeiten. Das könnte im Bereich der Führung oder im Selbstmanagement sein. Sie erreichen damit auch Ihre Ziele im Unternehmen.
Und nicht zuletzt wird Ihre positive Entwicklung sich auf positiv auf andere auswirken.
Deshalb ist Coaching sehr gefragt. Leistung wird gesteigert. Menschen werden geschätzt. Das ist es, was langfristige Veränderungen ausmacht. Die Unternehmen wollen eine Kultur, die Probleme löst. Sie möchten Zufriedenheit für die Mitarbeiter.
Sie möchten das Beste für Ihre Kunden.
Und all das kann ein Coach für Sie greifbar machen.
The coach as an aid to achieving goals
You have already discovered many advantages. The coaching process always takes place in consultation with the customer. What are the benefits?
Every detail is taken into account. Your development is as unique as you are. Whether personal or professional. What you set your mind to becomes reality with coaching. You recognize what is important to you. And you will soon be able to do more of it. Try it out!
Definition of coaching: Is coaching the same as consulting?
The short answer is no! Let's look at change according to Holtbernd & Kochanek. Coaching is based on ten steps.
There is a problem. The client contacts the Ihr Coaching Institut. The initial discussions serve to identify the problem.
What is the reason for the problem? A plan is then drawn up.
After all, you want to solve the problem. You take a list to hand. Write down two columns. What do you have? What do you want? Now it's time to change something. Together with your coach, you set off on your journey.
Methods and approaches in coaching
Let's look at the moon. We always see it on one, bright side. Does that mean it is flat?
Of course not. You shouldn't be fooled by this view. This is also how coaching works.
The word for this is holism. You have problems at work, but the real cause may lie at home.
Genauso können Sie sich zu Hause nicht entspannen, aber Ihre Arbeit ist der Stressfaktor. Ein Consultant spezialisiert sich in 95 % der Fälle auf einen Bereich. Für einen Coach reicht das nicht.
Er schaut auf alle möglichen Ursachen.
Seine langjährige Erfahrung macht ihn zum Spezialisten.
What does coaching do for us?
Coaches can also provide advice. But that is not their focus. The coachee should deal with their own inner world.
Whether online or face-to-face. The client is given tools and the knowledge to use them. This is more sustainable because the client is empowered to achieve goals independently.
Mentoring therefore combines several methods. In addition to advice, there is also feedback and practical training. Your skills are promoted. Afterwards, you can look forward to your future with anticipation. The tasks will not be taken off your hands. But you will soon be able to manage them all on your own.
Systemic coaching within the framework of the coaching definition
The client often realizes for the first time what influence these problems really had. We only realize later how strongly our lives have been shaped by them. You may have avoided things before.
Perhaps they were associated with fears. Hearing the truth can be difficult. But then the fog lifted.
But in return, you are exposed to emotional pain at first. But the benefits at the end of the journey are greater.
The client reflects and thinks about what they have learned. Encouraging self-reflection and self-awareness is particularly important nowadays. He questions his life and everything that goes with it.
The systemic approach can take root. Like a domino, one thought nudges another. The whole of life raises questions that we want to answer. It's both scary and great at the same time.

Is coaching the same as psychotherapy?
This question is often asked. Here too, the answer is no. Coaching works with „healthy“ people. They should not have any previous mental illnesses. Why is that?
A coach cannot and must not supervise them. They must be taken seriously and treated with caution. Nevertheless, coaches usually work together with psychological experts and psychotherapists.
They are trained and have the necessary specialist knowledge. As a team, their expertise therefore covers an even wider area. Coaching is sometimes compared to sparring.
Coaching areas and topics
From our point of view, this form of consulting is like sparring. You train together until the result is achieved. The training can last from weeks to years.
Have you thought about a business coach?
This only makes sense if you look at every area. Even in the Business Coaching they will look at your personal environment. It is holistic. And therefore it also promises a positive change in your entire life.

How does personnel development shape the definition of coaching?
Those who stay on the ball will soon notice the results. Change is gaining momentum. New things are tried out, old things are left behind.
Everything above has laid the foundation for this. Now all that remains is for the coach to make adjustments.
If it suits the client 100 %, the direction is the right one. The client is satisfied and can now coach himself. Namely with the tools they have learned. You could call it the free flight phase.
The sparring partner is indispensable in coaching
The client begins to fly. And it works! The coach is still occasionally required as a sparring partner.
Otherwise the client will fly on his own.
Das ist das Ziel des Coachings. Durch Unterstützung löst der Klient die Probleme bald ganz von allein. Auf diesem Weg wird er begleitet. Diese Probleme können ganz unterschiedlich sein. Hier im Coaching Institut Frankfurt erleben wir vieles.
Von kleinen Entscheidungen im Alltag bis zu Krisen im Leben einer Person.
There is no general method for this. Anyone who tries to do this is not acting in the customer's interest. Customers are looking for help and should receive it!

The coach's experience is essential for coaching
A coach is a generalist. He recognizes cause and effect. And he connects them.
Good coaches have experience in thousands of „cases“. They apply these. They ask the client questions.
The consulting process consists of 80 %. Fewer questions are asked during consulting. Instead, answers are provided.
It is important to note that both can make sense. With us, the client is guided to develop their own solutions. They not only know these, but also how to get there. The form of counseling is help for self-help.
Is coaching limited in time?
In the company, personal development is part of the management method. It is limited in time. The total duration varies.
To this end, it usually works with employees and managers. This can be individual consulting or social learning. As you can see, we use numerous tools.
However, some opinions also see this form of advice as support from the line manager.
Or to achieve a positive environment for the employee. A good coach does not focus on one thing. He recognizes patterns everywhere. And in doing so, they clarify the client's options.
Coaching cannot be defined as a trend
In 92 % of cases, the customer comes back. He faces his fears. In the remaining 8 % he decides to terminate the contract.
The „change“ process is paused. In our experience, this lasts 3-6 months. The client does not simply want to ignore the issue. He has been able to reflect and his motivation and willingness to get on with it are all the greater. He is still interested in finding his own solutions.
Is it a voluntary process at all times?
Most people ask themselves this question. They want to get to know each other better. This question is part of that.
But the coach also needs to know where you stand. This enables them to find the right solution. So the question is meant seriously.
We are grateful for everyone who can open up. Only then will the change be sustainable.
