The following provides an overview of different types of coaching, including a brief description.
Life Coaching: assists people in achieving objectives and greater satisfaction in all areas of their life, including work/life balance. All forms of coaching at one point or another include a generalist life coach approach.
Life Cycle Coaching: assists people going through major transitions in life, ranging from teenagers growing into young adults, university students entering the job market, new relationships, ending relationships, retirement etc.
Career Coaching: assists people who are either considering or going through a career transition of some sort. This could include developing the confidence required for interviewing, identifying new career directions, improving performance for promotion opportunities, working through the special needs of a relocation or transfer, returning to the workforce after an extended leave, and so on. Career Coaches often use assessment and profiling tools to assist their clients.
Health & Wellness Coaching: assists people to identify their future-focused goals for their health and wellness and supports them in achieving their goals,
Business Coaching: requires a specialist understanding of how business operates and how business owners can achieve their objectives through successful self and team leadership. A combination of life coaching for the owners and business coaching for the business.
Workplace Coaching: assists organisations, or teams within an organisation, to achieve very specific business outcomes. In most cases, the process begins with a thorough exploration of the scope of work, desired objectives and potential strategies for achievement. A customised programme is designed and the coaches work specifically within that programme, coaching all members of the team.
Executive Coaching: is almost entirely focused on leadership skills. The coach works with the leader on identifying their current leadership skills and strengths, works through solutions and helps the client set and achieve objectives in both self-leadership and leadership of others.
