Coaching

Coaching is a catalyst that can move you toward total life success. Just like an athletic coach, my goal is to help you become the best you can be, in your personal or professional life. You will set the agenda; I will follow your lead. People seek coaching for many various reasons, but the bottom line is change. I firmly believe you hold the answers to your professional and life issues. As your coach, I will help you find those answers and encourage you to set specific goals to move forward. Then I will provide support, identifying and helping you overcome obstacles, and providing accountability.

My company is named Success Redesign because I help clients redesign their lives. My challenge is to assist clients in setting goals that lead to success, followed by guiding them through a process to achieve that success. If you will strive for success in all areas of your life, you will live with renewed peace and joy.

Coaching Issues
Coaching issues vary with the client and their individual needs, including life coaching, business coaching, and performance coaching. In many cases, the coach serves as a confidential thought partner for business and life concerns. Coaching issues may include the following, in addition to many others:

• Life/Professional transitions
• Strategic decision-making
• Communication issues
• Management strategies
• Work /Life balance
• Job burnout
• Life purpose
• Stress reduction
• Coping with cancer
• Divorce/Grief recovery

Based upon Laura Berman Fortgang’s recent book, Now What? 90 Days to a New Life Direction, this exciting program will facilitate finding your life purpose and developing a Life Blueprint to integrate your purpose into your life. Weekly sessions will be conducted by phone to coach you through the workbook activities. Those who have completed the Now What? program gain a renewed sense of purpose and joy.

The coaching relationship will usually consist of 45-minutes sessions via telephone two – four times each month. In some instances, the sessions may be held face-to-face. To gain the maximum benefit from coaching, a minimum contract of three - six months is usually recommended. Professional fees for coaching services are payable in advance on a monthly basis.

“The coaching I received from Donna Lawrence has been absolutely invaluable to me as a communicator, a manager, and in my personal life at home. My coaching was invigorating and nurturing as I learned to develop skills I already had, capitalized on innovative techniques for skills I didn’t previously have, and offered fresh perspectives from an unbiased party. As a result of the feedback and assessment results I received, I feel that I am better equipped to communicate and interact on both a business and personal level. Donna’s temperament, guidance, and trouble-shooting provided the necessary direction to help me achieve my full potential, and she has also instilled a new level of self-confidence in my capabilities as a communicator.”

“The biggest change that has occurred in my life is achieving focus. Donna has helped me to evaluate issues in my life, prioritize them, and focus on things that will help me achieve the goals that are important in my life. It has been much more than just business development, although my business has improved since we started the coaching process. Coaching has helped me use skills that were hidden and improved both my personal life and business.”
