Life coaching for business clients: the benefits
Performance Coaching Yorkshire and the return on investment

A compelling business case for performance coaching and business life coaching
As the saying goes: "If it moves, measure it." Otherwise, why bother?
Businesses need to ensure that all expenditure translates into increased business performance. And, at StraughanConsulting, we believe that performance coaching - whether you call it corporate coaching, executive coaching or business life coaching - is no exception.
Tangible benefits of performance coaching
Performance coaching offers true business benefits.
In a study by the Association for Coaching, most participants reported increased productivity and motivation came from the involvement of a life coach.
Those questioned said that improved people management skills resulted in 58 per cent of coaching programmes and increased job motivation in 53 per cent and improved work life balance in 48 per cent.Imagine the difference a life coach could make for you and your team.
Corporate coaching as an executive and employee development tool
The study concluded that coaching is beginning to be used to target
specific development areas across organisations - specifically at senior level - and is regarded as an effective development intervention.
So what impact can corporate coaching have on the extra energy we bring into the workplace?
The study concluded that corporate coaching is beginning to be used to target

Meanwhile, in his book Good to Great, Jim Collins claims that people don't give as much of themselves as they could - there's a staggering 40 per cent more "discretional energy" in most workplaces that could be tapped into by better leadership and management. Just think what that could mean for your organisation.
What employees say
A Gallup survey involving more than a million people concluded that people perform their best work when they use their talents and play to their strengths.
Little surprise, then, that the StraughanConsulting approach to coaching focuses on human potential and how we can encourage individuals to recognise and harness their talents.
