Why become a coach?

Every day we have conversations with family, friends or colleagues, so understanding how to have more effective conversations is an essential skill.

Coaching is a conversational method designed to help others develop clarity of thinking to reach their goals.

As a personal, business or executive coach, you will help others to realise their personal and professional potential. A career as a professional coach is very rewarding as you partner with your clients to work through challenges and create positive change.

For those wishing to develop the skills to become a better manager and leader in the workplace, coaching can help you bring staff to their own insights and become better problem solvers.

What is a brain-based approach to coaching?

The most important thing to understand about NeuroLeadership Group's Results Coaching System™ is that it is a neuroscience (brain-based) approach to coaching built on cutting edge theories from contemporary neuroscience. We study how the brain learns and apply this information to the design of our coaching models. The science provides the ‘how’ and ‘why’ the models work and makes coaching easier to learn. 

Our definition of coaching is to facilitating positive change by improving thinking. Our Brain-based approach trains you to ask thinking questions with a solution focus, helping people rewire their brains through insights. The benefit is shorter conversation with bigger impact because you learn to facilitate insight in someone else: neuroscience research teaches us the brain likes its own ideas best, advice causes “error detection” in the brain to go off; people are more likely to take action when it’s their own idea.

Using the Results Coaching System™ is unique in comparison to other coach training options because we provide you with a clear step-by-step process for coaching engagements, these tools allow you to remain fully present with your client and ensure that you are a highly effective coach and you delivering better results, faster; one of the reasons our model has been selected by several Fortune 100 organizations for internal coaching.

To put it simply, Results coaching is about getting real RESULTS.

A story from one of our coaches

"My journey to become a coach began as a Marketing Manager for a global beverage manufacturer. I was very well paid, quite overworked and for the most part, I loved what I was doing in my role that involved building brands and my team of brand managers. But there was something missing. The fire in my belly I get when I am engaged in something I truly love doing had tapered down to a gentle simmer of embers. I felt like I could be giving, learning and receiving more.

After speaking with a Results Coach and understanding the real value of the training Results offer I enrolled in the ICT and I have never looked back. Once I was exposed to the tools and framework shared in the ICT, I became aware how acutely important and useful they were in both a business and wider life sense. I took up the challenge given to the class by our trainers to start coaching straight away. This was instrumental in consolidating the learning and building confidence and experience as a coach! I continued to coach clients every spare minute I had outside of my full time job and made the decision to leave and pursue my own business full time. After 3 months of resigning I had a full practice. Despite the dedication, focus and confidence I used, the experience was made all the richer by the support of a number of the more experienced coaches within the Results community. Results Coaching offers outstanding trainers and an excellent coaching framework, dedicated mentors and fosters a growing and supportive community of coaches around the world."
