COACHING
APPROACH

Reflective

Allowing the coachee to use the coach toreflect on their own challenges, strengths and desired outcomes.

Person-centred

The coachee is the best expert on themselves and my role is to offer an accepting and authentic relationship that stretches and helps them achieve optimal functioning.

Solution-focused

In an organisational environment it is critical to align the coaching outcomes with the coachee’s role within the organisation.

Honesty

This is the most critical element of the coaching relationship.

Development of cognitive and behavioural awareness

Long term success within an organisation requires managers and executives to continuously learn how their environment is working and changing and adapt appropriately.

Confidentiality

Critical for the provision of a safe space within the coaching relationship.

Respect

A key element of the professional discussions between the coach, the coachee and client (organization).

Tleli, thank you for all the pearls of wisdom, for stretching me, for allowing me to be creative, for allowing me to dare to lead. Thank you for also allowing me to impart to you what I know. It was humbling when in a session we could both have AHA! moments. What a journey it has been. Your next coachees are in good and capable hands.

Yvonne Mkefa – Group Employee Relations Executive (Old Mutual)

Tleli, the knowledge and wisdom he had imparted upon me has been a great help and support in my career. He has inspired me to pursue my goals with hard work and dedication, he also showed me the value of honesty, sincerity and trust in business.

Thulile Dlamini – Manager: Line Maintenance (South African Airways Technical)

The coaching was an eye-opener. You have managed to encourage and keep me motivated through the coaching sessions, as opposed to leaving my current career as an engineer. Your listening and questioning skills during the coaching sessions provoked my thoughts on various aspects (new and existing). This, as well as your guidance, helped me to conclude historical work-issues and grow within my career.

James Nyakale, Project Manager
