What is Transformational Coaching?

In general, coaching is, generative in nature, results oriented and requires the client to learn how to be accountable for everything that goes in their lives. Coaching empowers you to shift interpretations that no longer serve you in your life. Now, transformational coaching is basically the deeper work of coaching. A transformational coach seeks to encourage an increased awareness of of an individual’s models and ideals of the world around them in order to have them create and design new possibilities for not only themselves, but the people around them. The main focus of a transformational coach is to help the client’s exploration of their underlying beliefs, assumptions, values, personal attitudes and expectations that are used to help shape their experiences and world in general, shift in a positive way. Of course, the exploration in itself is no where near unfocused. It begins with the presentation of the client’s issues, challenges, aspirations or expectations, however, rather than purely focusing on achieving or resolving those different things, it concentrates on determining what is at the heart of the whole situation whilst enabling the achievements of the main goals, where relevant. This type of coaching is basically pretty similar to life coaching. Its main intention is to help people better both themselves and their lives by encouraging them to adopt the necessary changes. However, compared to like coaching, the difference it has here is that instead of changing the way you act, transformational coaches help their clients change how they see as well as feel about themselves. This usually involves changing the limitations and perceptions they have about themselves and others, and changing their whole self image in general. Those of you seeking to become transformational coaches should possess a few vital characteristics. For starters, when it comes to both non-verbal and verbal communication, it would be extremely helpful if you were a veritable expert. Aside from that, you should also be non-judgmental, understanding, inspirational and motivational.

They understand that life is much deeper than that. They understand that without a positive shift of perspectives, it’s meaningless to chase external goals.
