Business coaching is a creative process in which a professional Coach guides you toward solving a problem or reaching a goal.

One of the main benefits of coaching is the access to cognitive diversity – differences in perspectives, insights and thinking styles. This enables you to increase self-awareness and in turn, develop the mindsets and behaviours required to bring about positive change.

The process provides you with an external sounding board. It's a confidential space and an opportunity to take time out from your busy day-to-day. The sessions are designed to help you identify, prioritise and action the specific areas that will have the biggest impact on your challenge or goal.

The 60-minute one-to-one sessions take place virtually using a video software of your choice.

Mentors answer your questions, coaches question your answers!

Coaching focuses on developing the skills, mindsets and behaviours that are critical for your career. It's about removing yourself from the busy day-to-day to focus on the areas that you need to prioritise. That could be anything from hitting a performance target to resolving a conflict with a colleague. Coaching is designed to provide you with different perspectives, insights and thinking styles to help you progress through a challenge or achieve a professional goal.

Mentoring typically involves showing you what to do and how to do it. Mentors use their personal context and experience to help you with your career development. They typically have a good understanding of either the company or the sector, and can help open up doors to get you to where you want to go.

PushMe sessions can often employ practices from both coaching and mentoring.
