The P3-G-R-O-W-T-H-S model is the coaching process to help a person achieve their goals through a 3 stage process. The P3-G-R-O-W-T-H-S model encompassing 3 stages is summarized as follows

The model works in 3 stages with each P symbolising an essential stage in the overall G-R-O-W-T-H process. It is similar to the natural growth that takes place in a tree to produce fruit, as a consequence of a 3 stage process involving given by
Anchoring in Presence-> Establishing Clear Purpose -> Fruition through Partnership towards fullness and fulfillment, one decision at a time
The effectiveness of each coaching session is seen in how the coach is able to maximise the engagement of the coachee through each of these stages leading to a state of ‘resonance’ by creating the right environment. Resonance is maximising the energies of the coachee, coach and any third party involved and focussing them towards the most energy/resource effective outcome during a coaching session.
