Performance and Wellbeing Coaching
What is performance/wellbeing coaching and how can you use it in the workplace?
The State of Coaching and Mentoring 2022 report shows that 65% of HR professionals agree or strongly agree that coaching should be a part of their organisation’s strategy.
Coaching, when done right, can be a key driver to companies success. A study shows that life, wellbeing or performance coaching can have a huge ROI.
Coaching is based on the science of human motivation and behaviour. It’s incredibly powerful for increasing employee performance, fulfilment and wellbeing.
Coaching is the process of helping individuals or groups identify their strengths and areas for improvement to achieve their goals. It follows a four-step process.
- Assessment.
- Outcome and Goals.
- Purpose.
- Actions.
There are many different approaches to coaching, but the fundamentals are always the same: help people achieve their goals by providing them with the tools, knowledge and motivation they require to reach their potential.
You may think that Performance Coaching means coaching for high performers – in other words, people who, for whatever reason, have been identified as “star talent.”
Actually, performance coaching is about helping all people reach their full potential, in any area of their lives.
The approaches and techniques used in performance coaching borrow heavily from the worlds of sport and the military – areas where optimal performance is key. performance coaching conversations usually start with finding out people’s “starting points” – their visions or life ambitions. Then, it moves on to explore the directions in which people need to move to achieve those visions, and the steps they need to take now to do so.
In House Coaching
Coaching can be a very costly expense for many organisations from hourly rates to customised courses. Unfortunately, employees and managers frequently don’t have one to one access to an inhouse coach to assist them to reach their full potential.
Any employee being able to access an inhouse coach one or two days a week or month can have a huge effect on employee performance and state of mind.
In-house coaching helps develop talent and improve employee engagement and retention. But they do something more; they put out the signal loud and clear that the organisational culture is one of investment in people and belief in continuous learning.
Working in the corporate world for over 25 years taught me that when you have motivated and inspired employees, this will dramatically improve the way they perform in their roles, leading to greater job satisfaction, fulfilment and overall well-being.
“A recent business review claimed that the biggest benefit to employees, including pension contributions, free car parking, gym memberships was having access to a full time coach, this can have a huge effect on employee performance, state of mind, well-being and skills, enabling employees reach their full potential in their business lives leading to greater job satisfaction and career progression.”

How WE CAN HELP
State of Mind
“We can achieve anything we want with the right attitude.”
Having the correct state of mind will take you from Having to do something to Wanting to do something.
Have you ever considered how your performance in your business each day is directly influenced by your state of mind?
How can a busy mind impact your productivity, creativity, resilience and ability to overcome challenges?
How does your state of mind impact your performance at work or in your business?
Self-Motivation
Sometimes it’s like a continuous cycle where we are motivated for a period, fall out and then
have to build things back up again.
There’s is nothing more powerful for self-motivation than the right attitude. You can’t choose or control your circumstance but can choose your attitude towards your circumstances.
Self-Communication
The critical inner voice is an internal enemy that can affect every aspect of our lives, including our self-esteem and confidence, our personal and intimate relationships, and our performance and accomplishments at work.
These negative thoughts affect us by undermining our positive feelings about ourselves and others and fostering self-criticism, inwardness, distrust, self denial and a retreat from goal-directed activities.
"Strength comes from struggle. When you learn to see your struggles as opportunities to become stronger, better, wiser, then your thinking shifts from ‘I can’t do this’ to ‘I must do this’"
Finding your inner fire and using it as motivation means you’ll persevere longer, and ultimately, achieve more.
