In coaching and mentoring a coach or mentor is the most important enabler individuals can use. They may use different coaching approaches and methods, their greatest asset is the way a coach or mentor taps into their reservoir of personality traits, talents, competences and qualities. Yvonne Looije’s experience and training as a professional coach and her expertise in the finance services sector makes her both an exceptional coach and mentor. But to bring this into force makes only sense if her clients' are willing to put in the effort for their personal development.
A client seeking personal or professional growth and development needs to realize that they cannot give away the responsibility for their growth and development to their coach or mentor. A coach or mentor merely provides guidance, tools, and offers honest feedback and perspectives. A coach or mentor offers space for their clients to reflect, the hold the flag and share successes - as 'ah moments' and successes will come. Coachee's always appreciate the time to step back, to look deeply into the mirror and soul, and the time to reflect on blind spots, unhelpful behavior and alike. Coaches do not take charge of the development of the client, that is up to the client. And only when the client is ready, willing and able to accept responsibility for their process, their change, their growth and development, the change process unfolds and growth and development can take place. It might even be a life changing experience once you take charge of your own growth.
