INSTRUCTIONS: Please review carefully. Before the beginning of each i-coaching session, you will be required to agree to Flower of Life Coach’s Terms and Conditions by clicking on the “I Agree” tab. An email will be sent to you for your records.
This agreement is entered into by: ____________________(client name) and ________________ (coach name), and pertains to Life Coaching for Personal or Professional Development which shall occur via telephone, via chat, or SKYPE, as negotiated between Client and Coach.
Definition of Coaching: “Professional Coaching is an ongoing professional relationship that helps people produce extraordinary results in their lives, careers, businesses or organizations. Through the process of coaching, clients deepen their learning, improve their performance, and enhance their quality of life. In each meeting, the client chooses the focus of conversation, while the coach listens and contributes observations and questions. This interaction creates clarity and moves the client into action.
Coaching accelerates the client’s progress by providing greater focus and awareness of choice. Coaching concentrates on where clients are now and what they are willing to do to get where they want to be in the future. ICF member coaches recognize that results are a matter of the client’s intentions, choices, and actions, supported by the coach’s efforts and application of the coaching process.”
