Coaching packages are all tailored to fit. They are sometimes part of a wider programme of staff development and training, such as for the leadership, a specific team, or role, or for individuals identified for fast track management or for senior executives. We often work with a company to install a coach-approach through the leadership teams. This coaching culture then permeates through the teams and leads to high performance and a growth mindset.
Packages for individual roles are often monthly retainers to include 2 sessions a month on an ongoing basis. Sometimes when included in a training initiative or programme, they are a set number of sessions for each person.
All coaching can be done remotely, by Skype, Webex or telephone, so can easily be delivered for the travelling executive or geographically desperate teams.

Case studies
Here are some case studies of some corporate and business coaching that The Balance House has delivered, to illustrate the some of the coaching we offer.
We did some coaching around an issue he felt he had where he felt he didn’t ‘suffer fools’, which was displayed by being dismissive, intolerant, impatient or talking over those whom he felt were less experienced or knowledgeable than himself in a particular subject. We did some coaching around becoming aware of what happened just before such an event; what he noticed in his thinking, his emotional state, his physiology, etc. Then Edward identified some steps he could use as an interrupt, so that he could consciously choose how to behave, rather than follow his habitual response to a dismissal. The key here was his becoming aware beforehand, so that he could choose how to be more present for the other person, and perhaps coach or mentor them as appropriate to find a solution in the situation, rather than takeover.
We also worked on influencing skills, to bring his communication up to a level where he could easily and comfortably liaise with senior management to prepare him for promotion.
