Narrative coaching
Narrative coaching is a process that allows coachees to address issues in their present by relating stories from their past. The stories we remember about ourselves have a powerful impact on our values, our beliefs, our assumptions, and our behaviours – and hence on our performance and careers.
Narrative coaches are trained to help clients see the connections between their stories and their present opportunities – and hence to make better choices and to work with, rather than against their energies. The coaching process helps clients discover patterns and new meanings in their stories and to re-write stories, where this will help them absorb more positive, helpful perspectives.
