2015/09/10

A Coaching Model Created by Inas Ghanem
(Life coach, EGYPT)

Whenever coaching is needed, a conversation is carried out between the Coach and the Client. For this conversation to be successful and leads to achieving the set objectives, it has to have a specific approach that best serves both parties, namely; serve the client achieve his objectives and aid the coach perform to the best client interest.

Model Target Niche

Why PLANET?

Planets are moving objects, revolving and circulating. The continuous motion of the Planet is an indication of being dynamic. Our coaching model P-L-A-N-E-T is dynamic not static. Hence the coaching process obeys a continuous improvement approach. Through our coaching model, the client lives on the PLANET of success and achievement. You perpetuate within the PLANET achieving your SMART goals, strategic objectives and finally your dreams.

What does P-L-A-N-E-T stand for?

Plan – Lean – Act – Note – Evaluate – Think & Touch high

Coaching Approach

Both in business and in life, no matter how smart, intelligent or creative we are, we need a path to go through, a process to obey, to achieve our goals and overcome the obstacles we face.

Our coaching approach is based on a chain. The rings of the chain are flexible and allow for innovation. PLANET coaching model is composed of six rings, namely;

Note

  • Document the Action Phase with Mindfulness.

  • Appreciative Inquiry results need to be clear to build on.

Evaluate

  • Study the actual results, what happened, using Emotional Intelligence.
  • Compare against the expected results (targets or goals from the "PLAN") to ascertain any differences.
  • Analyse the results with open mindedness.
  • Look for deviations in implementation from the initial plan
  • Look for the appropriateness and completeness of the plan to enable the execution.
  • Inquire for trends with the aid of emotional intelligence.
  • Convert data into information.
  • Information is what is needed for the next step “Think & Touch up”

Think & Touch UP

  • Put in place development plans for yourself, your team and the whole organization. Commit to these plans. Have bye ins from the team on these plans.
  • Touch up high in the sky. This should not be just client satisfaction. It is client delight that you should be committed to.

For the coaching approach to follow this model with success;

  • The coach needs to be fully present, mindful and aware of the client needs and the whole situation.
  • The coach and the client will synchronize, performing on the same wave length to ensure harmony.
  • It is the coach’s effectiveness, through multi-dimensional listening, emotional intelligence, powerful and appreciative inquiry, that helps the client dig deep inside and come up with his own solution.
  • Within the coaching process, the coach acknowledges the client for his actions/achievements as a means of support, recognition and motivation.
