Approach

Jane’s coaching approach is based in systems thinking which means working together across both the internal and external dynamics at play. This means we will look at the impact of external events and people on your ability to achieve; how these factors impact how you behave and relate; and how you manage yourself as a result. 

As an outcome we aim to enable you to influence what is happening around you with more impact as well as achieve your desired organisational coaching objectives.

Jane takes a coaching approach to facilitation. This means while working with the relevant content she listens to surface the issues within the group that will provide opportunity for expansion and growth. Teams and groups are challenged in a supportive manner to experiment with moving beyond current paradigms to achieve more than they currently believe they are capable of.
