Coaching is
the partnership between coach and client
aimed at engaging in a thought-provoking and creative process that
inspires the client to maximise their personal and professional potential.
Put another
way, the practice of coaching takes individuals on a process of personal
discovery and development to enhance the individual’s capability and
effectiveness within the context of their personal lives, professional lives,
or both.
The way
humans learn and how coaching can further enhance such learning processes can
been seen around the bases of neuroscience. Daniel Siegel defines the mind as
“the embodied and relational process that regulates the flow of energy and
information”. This means the mind uses
the brain just as software uses hardware. This image from Siegel refers to the
‘brain’ in terms of the nervous system, nerves, tissuesand physiological
components within the human body and to the ‘mind’ in terms of each individual
process of cognition, interpretation, and action.
In the book
Mindsight, The New Science of Personal Transformation, Dr. Daniel Siegel describes the triangular relationship and
interplay between mind, brain and our relationships in an in-depth exploration
of the power of the mind to integrate the brain and promote well-being.
