Coaching

Positive Mental Attitude (PMA)

Our Primary Approach

The GROW model integrates four primary elements that include

1. Goals – What you are looking to achieve
2. Reality – An honest assessment of where you are currently concerning your goals in relation to where you want to be.
3. Options – Exploring the most viable options available to you to help you reach your goal
4. Wrap-Up – After choosing the option that you believe will be best for you, we will help you clarify your commitment to the process of improvement — making sure that you are aware of what will be necessary for you to achieve the goals you have set.

1-On-1 Coaching ~ The OSKAR Model

The OSKAR Coaching Model –  Features A Solution-Focused Approach

Originating from the Solutions Focused Approach, the OSKAR coaching model is a robust framework to help you focus on solutions rather than problems because whatever you focus on, you will feel and experience the greatest impact. Here is a brief description of the different stages.

Outcome

At this initial stage of the OSKAR coaching model, we will establish a ‘platform’ from which to coach. We will assess whether or not you are currently ready to take on the challenge associated with your goals. At the outset, we will also be clarifying:

• What you want to achieve – this may be in the long, medium, and short-term
• What you want to achieve from the session itself and how you will know it has been useful to you
• The ‘future perfect’ in other words, the perfect scenario desired by you
• Ask the right questions to help you visualize, in detail, your desired outcome.

Scaling

Once you have a clear picture of your desired outcome, we will establish where you are already concerning this. Using Scaling Techniques to ensure that we can quantify current and future realities.
E.g. On a scale of 1 – 10, where 1 represents an extreme gap, and 10 represents close proximity, where are you in relation to this goal.

Know How

Linking to the Scaling stage, we will build on this foundation by establishing what positives have given you your current rating – what skills, knowledge, and attributes do you currently possess that place you at, say, a 4 or 5 rather than a 0. This stage is all about uncovering your strengths – your knowledge, skills, and attributes building up your awareness of these assets, and developing confidence. The sort of questions we will likely be asking at this stage are:

• What skills/knowledge/attributes do you currently have that will help you?
• When have you done this/something similar before?
• What would others say is working for you?

This stage really is about ‘digging for gold’ and will be taken to establish the resources you currently have at your disposal.

Affirm and Action

Affirming – this is about providing positive reinforcement of what I have heard…reflecting back positive comments about some of the key strengths and attributes you have revealed (e.g., I am impressed with the knowledge you have in this area, or it’s evident from what you have just said that this is working for you).

Action – this is about helping you determine what small action or actions you will now take.

Review

This final stage of the OSKAR coaching model is for reviewing progress against actions and is, therefore, most likely to occur at the beginning of the next coaching session. The emphasis is on reviewing the positives:

• what is better?
• What did you do that made change successful?
• What do you think will change next?

The goal is to get results progressively through measurable and quantifiable steps.
