Coaching and Mentoring 

Developmental coaching is a specialised skill applied in the context of a personalised relationship between an individual and an accredited coach. The process is governed by the co-creation of a focused agreement, linked to corporate vision, values and objectives, which aims to enhance and accelerate the development of potential. It is linked to desired performance, or transformation, in relation to personal and organisational awareness, purpose, competence and well-being.

Connemara’s approach to coaching begins with the premise that the individual is creative, resourceful and whole. Coaching is a well-defined process, with start and end points. It assists people to define clear goals and set a specific time frame in which to meet them.

Our objective is to align the needs and preferences of the company with the candidate in the coaching programme. We do this in series of face-to-face sessions where we observe, debrief and offer comprehensive 360-degree analysis. Telephonic, VOIP and on-line coaching results in fast, direct feedback with measurable results.

Connemara specialises in executive coaching, performance coaching and group coaching.

Coaching goals include:

• Developing a clear intention and sense of purpose
• Building self-confidence
• Setting clear objectives and following through on decisions made to achieve those objectives, and taking ownership of choices made
• Developing emotional intelligence for competent leadership and making the most of true potential
• The ability to self-correct through continuous learning
• Long-term excellence in performance through a pattern of learning
• The ability to meet and exceed the requirements of new business challenges and new roles
• To manage stress and the demands of change more effectively
• To maintain a better work-life balance

For group coaching, additional goals include:

• Joint problem solving
• Action learning implementation
• Improved team interaction and efficiency
• Scenario planning

At Connemara, we uphold national and international standards set out for executive coaching and monitor and support new strategies in the discipline. Where the guidelines are narrow, our research helps lay a firmer foundation.

As a result, the methods we use are highly effective, leading to measurable results in a clearly defined period of time. Our accredited master coaches are highly experienced industry specialists who ensure that a candidate is successfully integrated into the work environment, becoming part of the team.
