Conceptual Models Paper
I have studied the books Coaching Based Ministry and Leadership Coaching, there are several appealing characteristics I would choose and use in coaching. I am going to briefly share my views on what I have learned. I would not classify myself as one who sets goals or at least not according to the way my textbooks states, however, as I read, I realize I do make goals in my head, I just do not write them down, yet. As I view the different examples of goal setting within the coach/client setting, I see a huge importance for it. “Exercising Our Faith” (Stoltzfus 2005, p.126) made a huge impact on me. I resonate with what takes place in this section. I love how Stoltzfus states, “Goal setting is an act of faith”

S.M.A.R.T. goals are something I need to memorize to apply to my coaching skills. I still need to apply these in forms of questions to the client, however, the questions must be specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and time-specific for the client to come to the answers for themselves by the questions I ask. This will take some practice to master.
Chapter 11 in Leadership Coaching is titled: Listening: Curiosity vs. Diagnosis. I am a very curious person which will help me in coaching, the problem I have is old habits, namely one coming to a judgment too quickly which leads me to a diagnosis. This section humbled me, I need to be imitating God, a listener, not diagnosing or telling my client what to do.
In the section on thinking things through says it all;
Becoming a great coach requires developing an extraordinary ability to listen. I often find myself telling trainees, “Don’t try to figure out the client’s problem-just listen! The client will tell you the answer. You just need to be listening intently enough to pick up on it.” When trainees do focus in on listening instead of trying to think up an awesome question or reply, they are always amazed at how well it works. People really can solve their own problems. (Stoltzfus 2005, p. 147)
I want to be an extraordinary listener coach to help others come to the right conclusion on their own. One of the more
For me to be an effective coach I will need to initially build rapport, develop coachee skills and knowledge, increase my observations, analysing, Facilitating the coachee’s thinking to enable a fresh perspective, providing feedback through listing and questioning the coachee to enhance performance and job satisfaction. This will lead to the team having a better clarity of the purpose, they will feel more valued, motivated as well as becoming more self-reliant.
Finally, I would use all these examples of coaching in my own coaching. The thing that means the most to me in coaching is this: 1) Be me, listen thoroughly without interruption or daydreaming. 2) Master the art of critical thinking questions that help guide the client to look inwardly to discover the answer that is right for them, not me. 3) Empower them with positive reinforcement. 4) Love them like Jesus
Collins (2009) explains how support is the most distinguishing factor in coaching (Collins, 2009, p. 85). The client needs to feel supported and respected to make strides in coaching (Collins, 2009, p. 85). I believe by welcoming my client and actively listening to the information being shared, as well as, guiding instead of giving advice, my client will be able to see I am committed to the coaching. I believe when these skills are presented and maintained within the coaching process, the client will be more willing to tackle difficult
Managers are increasingly expected to be able to competently perform each of the four 'learning ' roles - trainer, coach, mentor, and counselor - for their team as the need arises. Coaching is driven by a questions addressed to the coachee. .coaching become a popular title that is being used by a lot of professionals often with no training .coaching is also solving problem, setting goals and learn new behaviours. The coaching programs was a satisfying experience for personal growth and professional development. Coaching is differ according to the culture ,this paper will illustrate the impact of coaching on employees and how to applying this methods in education level.
According to Zeus and Skiffington (2008) the following are the Personal Qualities of a successful coach:
The present case study outlines the importance the leadership skill and identifies it as the most sustainable competitive edge in a progressively more competitive and boundary less business world (Hoch and Dulebohn, 2013). The case study on performance coaching with reference to the role of Darcy Gallagher gives the opportunity to comprehend the qualities and skills that need to be nourished to become an effective leader. The kingpin of the case study is the important elements of competency that affect the leadership outcomes and are influenced by the individual characteristics of the leader as well. The main purpose of the Coaching Performance to be conducted at Elmwood is to develop responsiveness to coaching facilities that are available in the daily work routine and aids the mangers to identify the problems of the members, the prompt responses to address their problems and add to the contribution made for long term career growth of the leaders as well as their subordinates.

Coaching is the art of facilitating another person’s learning, development and performance. Through coaching people are able to find their own solutions, develop their own skills and change their own behaviors and attitudes.
When I set goals, I am determined to accomplish them to their best potential. I have been a part of the Varsity soccer team all four years. Making the team as a freshman had been a goal of mine since middle school. However, goals like this are not accomplished without hard work. I practiced a lot the summer leading up to freshmen tryouts, and I earned a spot on the team. I had reached my goal; however, I was not going to stop there. Throughout the next years my goal has been to become a better player. The work I put in sophomore and junior year is how I deserved the title of captain my senior year.
The next part of active listening rest on a self-aware coach who distinguishes his or her bias, thoughts, limitations and strengths, a coach who does not permit his/her biases interfere with the complete conceptualization of what the client is saying and feeling. Coaching is about expanding people’s capacity to create the desired future. Coaching is also about taking the client
Communication is most important because of the way the coach can discuss topic with the client. If the coach can’t communicate with the client to ask why do you need a coach? or what areas in your life need improvement? For example, Bret needs help and the coach is unable to ask him what his needs is in an understanding manner.
The goal setting is the enacting of one’s faith (Stoltzfus, 2005). To set a goal, one needs to believe that it is doable, conceivable, and tangible no matter how outrageous or absurd the idea is to anyone else. In the coaching process, both agenda and goal setting incorporate the central premise of coaching, its goal driven process. Moreover, according to Stoltzfus the five strategic rationales for the vitality of goal-driven process are clarity, power, motivation, a mandate and action (Stoltzfus, 2005). These components keep the coaching process with the client at the center and the goals boundaries established for the
A successful person chooses goals to achieve something that is of great value and importance to them. This in turn motivates the person to achieve the goal because when the desired outcome is very important to a person, that person will be determined to persevere. Goal setting also improves a person 's organizational and time management skills because goal setting requires prioritization and that leads to the successful and sequential completion of necessary tasks. Once a person defines and prioritizes goals a plan should be drawn out detailing how this goal will be achieved. Goals and the time-line for their completion should be clearly defined, it is also important that a person 's
I will admit that there was one session I was coaching and I had no idea how to handle the situation, but at the start of this course, I was informed that I did not have to be an expert. I was not even there to give my opinion, but I was to allow my coachee to form their options and leave them with that, which ended up being one of my problems.
