PEACE Development Coaching
PEACE development coaching is about helping clients to discover hidden awareness potential through powerful, exceptional guidance via the coaching process. It empowers the client to change their behavior and use their assertiveness to accomplish their goals. As the PEACE development coach, the objective is to be authentic while assisting the client in shifting their perspective, and gaining a better understanding of the client’s needs and thought process.
Do not let the behavior of others destroy your inner peace. Dalai Lama
John Lennon’s famous song “Imagine” has the popular line, “Imagine all the people, Livin’ life in peace,” an idyll everyone deserves. The Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines peace as “a state of tranquility or quiet.” Within peace belongs cessation of civil unrest, freedom, harmony, and a treaty to end hostile acts. Inner peace can be found through acceptance and gentleness from oneself; it is an intentional and purposive state of mind. The PEACE model was developed to ensure both the coach and the client reach their highest state of peace within and after the coaching session.
