"Coaching… is product development, with you as the product."

    - Fast Company Magazine

 

At Surgent Coaching, we help leaders who are passionate about doing great things "find their more."

 

Through a carefully honed and proven process, we move clients from where they are to where they want to be by helping them: identify goals that significantly increase the quality of their professional and/or personal lives; define specific outcomes; formulate measurable goals and objectives; overcome obstacles and barriers; and take carefully constructed action steps that drive meaningful change.

 

What You Can Expect

At Surgent Coaching, our commitment is to you. Your purposes and plans. Your goals and aspirations. Your dreams and challenges. We don't do all of the talking, we listen. We don't primarily give information, we ask questions. We don't offer our own ideas, we help you uncover your ideas. We don't just share our stories, we tap into your experiences and story. We don't present our own solutions, we expand your thinking and empower you to discover your own solutions. 

 

What this means practically during each coaching session is we:  

​

• Facilitate, while letting you set the direction. Surgent coaches will facilitate a process of learning and problem-solving. Yet, we are never fully leading - you are, with your agenda, your goals and your desired outcomes. 

​

• Listen. You and your story are central. Surgent coaches fully engage in what you are saying and consider it a privilege to be invited into your journey. We use whatever means we have available to help you uncover your own solutions and chart your unique path forward.
   

• Ask questions. Surgent coaches use questions to stimulate your thinking and creativity. Questions about possibilities and the future; about exploration and discovery; about overcoming obstacles and barriers. Questions about who you are, what you want and what you need to do to get where you want to go. Coaching is about asking the right questions… at the right time… in the right way. And, so, we ask a lot of thought-provoking questions.
   

• Encourage. Few people get as much encouragement as they need. And, that’s especially true the closer one gets to the top. Your Surgent coach will hold up your vision, your progress, and your efforts and will encourage you as you take the steps needed to redefine your future.

 

Coaching Partnership

Our coaching engagements typically last anywhere from twelve weeks to multiple years. They are generally open-ended but can be project-focused or time-bound. We usually meet with clients for 30-60 minute video sessions weekly or bi-weekly. However, we are delighted to accommodate our clients' schedules if they need to be different than that.  

​

If you are a business owner or HR representative, we offer discounts for multiple coaching engagements within an organization. Please contact us for specifics.
