Personal (Life) and/or Executive Coaching
What is The EPL Way Life and Executive Coaching alternative about?
In conjunction with The EPL Way Short Courses, The EPL Programme also offers comprehensive Personal, Interpersonal and Professional Executive Coaching. Executive Coaching includes a 360° pre- and post-test assessment.
The EPL Way Life and Executive coaching aims to facilitate individuals and executives...
- With regard to their inherited traits and daily experiences:
- Every person receives INPUT from their genetic (inborn) makeup and from external domestication, conditioning and daily experiences. INPUT is about becoming aware of, acknowledging and dealing with existential problems and challenges (daily inputs) and their subjective experience of these problems and challenges.
- With regard to their ability to deal with life's challenges:
- Every human being has endowments, resources, capacities and tools to either block out or to transform experiences in order to cope with or use such inputs to their personal advantage, growth and development.
- With regard to awareness of OUTCOMES or PAY-OFF:
- Life and Executive Coaching is directed at helping the coachee to approach daily events with an awareness of outcomes or consequences so as to be able to proactively change or improve their life circumstances.

Constant And Never-ending Improvement (CANI)
Executive Coaching should not be viewed as benefiting only dysfunctional individuals or executives. In order to maintain optimum performance, fulfilment and resilience, all individuals or executives should periodically be coached to help re-focus and re-direct their thoughts, actions and purpose in life.

Facilitation rather than Prescriptions
