Coaching to Improve Communication SkillsCoaching pour Améliorer la Communication

I had recently received a feedback questionnaire from one of our clients, let me share his experience with you.

As you went through the coaching journey, how did it change things for you?

While I went through the coaching journey, I took conscience of a way to communicate/ to interact with my upper level which did not serve me well. I realized that I probably did not use the good means to report my actions and my initiatives, when I communicated with them. In addition, when I did, it was not very often, I gained clarity on the situation when I started the coaching. I’m now able to communicate on my actions with my upper level, to document my initiatives and the outcomes in order to “sell” myself in a respectful manner for my other colleagues.
The main point was to understand that my level of engagement and what I was doing every day in my work were different from my colleagues because I want to grow professionally.

Did you get what you hoped to get from coaching? Were your expectations met?

It was my first time experiencing coaching; a kind of experiment. I didn’t really have expectations or aims to achieve. However, I’ve faced an understanding person who has pulled the right strings in my mind to help me.

What new strengths can you see you have developed from the experience?

I have developed greater communication skills.

How did you surprise yourself through the coaching series?

My capacity to improve and the ideas I exchanged during the sessions. I kept them unconsciously in my mind, and I finally got the answers a few days ago

Is there a way I could have been a better coach for you?

Maybe if I’ve asked better questions? But, definitely no, you’ve been a great coach.

What will you now do differently?

From now I communicate better and document my work to convey my point of view and my results in order to drive my career in the direction I want. – O.M, Planner Buyer, Bombardier Aerospace, Montreal, CA – I had recently received a feedback questionnaire from one of our clients, let me share his experience with you.
