Our Philosophy:
Communication is the Alpha and Omega of relationships. Communication is gift and critical tool that can forge out love or hate, truth or pain that impacts our lives.
Communication effectiveness comes from being ourselves. It is important to be authentic and genuine. Coaching provides a mirror that helps us identify our unique strengthens and how to minimize our weaknesses.
We all can improve. No matter our level of communication experience or skill set, we call all improve; especially when we have the right attitude, focus and energy.
We grow best in a positive environment that is balanced with meaningful and specific guidance. A coaching environment should be a safe place where we can try and experiment without fear of judgment or failure.
Communication is a behavior pattern and skill. Communication involves all parts of an individual and in order to change requires education, practice, feedback, reinforcement and application. You can’t think skiing, you have to practice to teach the muscles what to do then with time skill is built.
The good news is that like a behavior pattern, communication can be improved and modified. Some communication problems, like a poor hand shake, can be changed quickly. Others, which are rooted in culture or personality style, take more time, focus and practice to see a change. In the beginning stages, growth and change are uncomfortable which is why people begin to progress; but then fall back into the same behavior patterns. That is why spaced repetition is imperative. A series of classes – where people practice, get consistent feedback, and coached – is the best way to address root communication problems and help ensure long term results.
