How many new year resolutions have you made for 2011? If you’re anything like me, you’ll have answered ‘none’, because I know I shan’t be able to keep any of them. I know from bitter experience, it gets really hard to keep up the good work by the middle of January, and that’s exactly where our coaches can help. We’ve got one of our free drop-in sessions on Wednesday 12th January at the National Trust Cafe in Swindon and we shall be there, helping you to keep those resolutions, and maybe even helping you with others you’ve only dreamed about.
After the last drop-in session Gerry R, an independent financial advisor, said “it was good just to see how they operate. It was very laid back, but they are obviously listening…… I found that a very good experience, and clearly they are professional people …. I would recommend it. I’ve experienced it!”
How to avoid the post-Christmas blues!
Developing staff at Bible Society
A team of our coaches recently spent a few hours one lunchtime at the Swindon HQ of Bible Society to offer coaching taster sessions to staff. The event was the culmination of discussions with the Human Resources Team at Bible Society to see how Swindon Coaching Team could increase awareness of the value of coaching to bring benefits to individuals and to Bible Society.
We are pleased with how this first event at Bible Society went. Seven people had conversations with members of our team on a range of confidential issues. The Human Resources Team have told us that it was “successful” and the feedback from most people who received coaching was that their needs had been met with coaching that was excellent or very good. We continue to be available to provide further help and support.
We are keen to build relationships with local employers, to help staff to resolve personal or business issues effectively and confidentially, and thus help with employee development and engagement. If this is of interest to you, contact us.
Richard live on Swindon Radio 105.5
I’ve been invited on to Swindon Radio 105.5 this evening (Monday 13th December) to talk about how individuals and businesses can cope and move on in the current financial climate, and how coaching can help with that.
This is the 6:00 p.m. slot which is hosted by the Federation of Small Business. I’ll be on from 6:00 until about 7:00 – and there’s music as well.

Swindon Connections a winner again…
Last night’s event at the new Jury’s Inn was a great success. We like the way that we can partner with Swindon Connections to hold regular events at different Swindon venues because this also gives us a way of keeping in touch with our colleagues, clients, and friends as well as meeting and encouraging others who run their own businesses. I think that all those we met last night benefitted from conversations with us about coaching and also made new business contacts.
Maybe it’s worth coming along just for the speakers. Last night Warren had arranged for Josie Payne to speak about Emotional Intelligence. I’m not used to people showing videos of Mike Tyson biting an ear off during a boxing match (it belonged to Evander Holyfield) but then this was one of the clearest talks I’ve heard on Emotional Intelligence. Josie spoke of the challenges of controlling our emotions when we are under stress in a way that we could relate to and apply straight away. Her own interest in the subject flowed from her experience of being on an aeroplane that was hijacked.
Get in touch if you’d like support with your own business, career, or life issues – whether or not you have ever bitten off someone’s ear. Use the Christmas holiday to start the new year with fresh enthusiasm and a clear sense of direction. The free taster sessions we are offering at the moment are a great gift for this.
Watch this space for dates of our next events.
