YOU CAN IMPROVE THROUGH COACHING
Coaching can significantly impact both personal and professional aspects of life. It helps individuals gain clarity about themselves, reflect on their values, and reconnect with what they love about life and work. A coach provides a safe space for growth, assisting with difficult conversations and personal development.
In organizations, coaching is beneficial for any, and all employees at all levels. It supports individuals in new roles, developing leadership skills, or influencing teams. When employees feel supported, capable, and valued, it leads to higher productivity, better performance, and a stronger sense of competence and belonging.
Owner and Leadership Coach
Jamie Palma, MSOL, is based in Grand Rapids Michigan. She has dedicated her career from non-profit to executive leadership.
Coaching does not have to be just for those who are mired in frustration. It can also be for those who want themselves and their business to be the best. I had a great experience working with Jamie for a number of weeks analyzing various parts of my business and myself that I wanted to improve. Overcoming certain negative mindsets, learning how to properly process some information, as well as communication tips and tricks, I found immense value in a time that I spent with Jamie, I would highly recommend them to other business owners and like-minded individuals.

COACHING
NEEDS
• • • SELF AWARENESS AND EFFICACY
A vital starting point for most individuals is the ability of introspect. This is a foundational skill that improves life inside and out. Once this skill is in place, you can work to build deeper insight into what you require and your future paths of growth. Self-efficacy is learned through another’s experiences and support. Both these skills are key building blocks for coaching. Together, we can create strategies to achieve goals. Celebrating those achievements with your coach is a prime way to build confidence and clarity.
• • • RESILIENCE, WORK-LIFE BALANCE, AND MENTAL HEALTH
With feedback and utilizing improved self-awareness, you can see improved stress tolerance. Allowing you to better adapt to changing or unfavorable circumstances. In turn, this decreases the likelihood of burnout and enhances overall life (and job) satisfaction. With coaching, you take time to set your own priorities and work to make them a greater part of life. That empowerment assists you in maintaining a better work-life balance. Within other areas of mental health; life satisfaction, purpose, and social connection improve from executing emotional regulation.
• • • EMPOWERING INDIVIDUALS AND THEIR ENGAGEMENT
Coaching validates, supports, and empowers the individuals within an organization. It gives them a neutral party to tackle concerns about professional development. As well as a safe space to practice having difficult conversations. When employees feel like they have to hide part of their life or identity in the workplace, it has a strong negative impact on both belonging and engagement. However, when people are encouraged to bring their whole selves to work, they’re more likely to be engaged, productive, and satisfied with their jobs.
• • • IMPROVED PERFORMANCE AND LEARNING
There’s a reason standard corporate training puts employees to sleep. People learn better (and retain more information) when they’re personally invested in the learning process. Working with a coach appeals to a wide range of learning styles. Furthermore, connecting the new skills to current goals and real-life applications makes it easier to apply the new learnings. Even the most dedicated managers don’t have unlimited time to spend coaching their employees. Most end up taking time out only to address aspects of exceptionally good or poor performance. Coaching provides an additional, growth-focused touchpoint for employees throughout the week. This, in turn, improves both individual and team performance.
