What these 3 founders know about the tangible benefits of coaching to their businesses

April 1, 2021 //  by Victoria Coxen

What exactly is coaching?  

Coaching is different to mentoring:

  • A mentor shares their knowledge and experience, offering advice and guidance on what a person might do in a specific scenario.
  • A coach doesn’t give advice but may offer different perspectives to encourage different thinking. Partnering with their clients to unlock their potential in whatever way will work best for them.

Coaching provides a chance to step out of the busy-ness into a safe, confidential, non-judgemental environment and spend time focusing explicitly on your own agenda. A place where you can be sure you have the undivided attention of someone not connected to your situation, who has your personal growth, best interests and wellbeing at heart.

Coaches will help you explore different ideas and perspectives and provide the support and sometimes the challenge needed to help you embed new ways of thinking, feeling and behaving. They will help you to build and maintain your resilience and adaptability, equipping you with the self-belief and mindset you need to navigate future challenges.

Three Women in Innovation award winners share the tangible benefits of coaching to their scaling businesses:

Feedback from the Women in Innovation coaching programme

During the coaching programme I have worked alongside 3 other ICF PCC accredited coaches to work with founders facing many different challenges including:

  • Stepping up into new leadership roles and growing teams.
  • Juggling the demands and expectations of home life with all the different hats they need to wear during the course of their work.
  • Wanting to learn how to communicate with greater impact and influence with many different personalities, investors and stakeholders.
  • Needing to find new strategies and strengths to overcome barriers, unhelpful thinking or negative voices (both internal and external).

Women in Innovation coaching package

Given the success of the programme, we are offering a special coaching package to a limited number of women within the Women in Innovation community: 6.5 hours of one-to-one coaching for £1,000 (+VAT) – this is 33% off our normal rates.

To register your interest in the special coaching package please contact victoria@coxenconsultandcoach.com
