We act our lives based on our insights, awareness of, and wisdom from our conscious and unconscious life experiences. For some this may manifest as a drive for increased emotional and physical safety, living within the boundaries of what we have come to know as certain. For others, a curiosity to ‘enquire’ beyond the edges of what we know, more than a need to operate within the parameters of certainty. There is a constant tension between living our habits and patterns, and a desire to break through what we do at a conscious level and move towards being able to hold a space of ‘not knowing’ in order to find new ways of being. Our world has historically invested in ‘knowing’, believing that knowledge will enable us to be better at what we do.

It’s much deeper than this. We won’t solve our problems, individually or globally, with what we already know. We almost certainly won’t live into our dreams by standing on familiar ground. We need a new way of seeing things, exploring possibilities, if we are to discover more effective ways to live and work alongside each other harmoniously, compassionately, lovingly.

We are only prepared to be courageous with our vulnerability when we feel safe to do so. We inhabit a wider, intuitive sense of our potential when we feel we are held safely, with dignity, respect, and trust. This allows us to feel valued,  and to ‘know’ that all of our being is held with love and compassion. These feelings are at the centre of how PotentiaCoach facilitators, coaches and therapists connect with our clients. We believe that if we are extending our own selves beyond our personal comforts, when we embody and practice what we coach, then our clients will feel they can too. This is the beginning of coherent collaboration in relational mastery. I continue to connect and work with wonderful practitioners with one thing in common – a curious desire to understand how and when we are open to change and growth, and what is required to journey on the path of discovery.

Our coaching community comes from all walks of industry and life: consulting, human resources and organisational senior leadership, coaching, therapy, public service, and private sector commerce. This rich collective of wisdom, experience, enthusiasm and expertise enables us to match members of our team to each of our clients’ needs, offering a depth of consulting, coaching, and therapeutic expertise.

Co-collaboration

We believe in fully understanding our clients’ needs at the deepest level, whether large corporation, small enterprise, or private individual.

When we engage with a client, the first interaction is a detailed consultation during which both our client and we take the time to listen, understand and clarify needs and expectations, and to express these as meaningful outcomes to meet the client’s goals.

From this collaborative exchange of knowledge, thinking, and ideas, we may suggest a single development solution or for more complex, multi-faceted needs we may suggest a series of activities which we believe will enable effective, sustainable movement, change and results.

We work with corporate clients to produce a fully scoped proposal to meet requirements, remove their pain points, and deliver within timescales, budget and expectations.

We help private clients arrive at a personal coaching plan setting out the goals they wish to achieve and which can be accommodated within their work and life.
