Executive Coaching

‘How does Executive Coaching differ from Professional Supervision?’

While Sally Cooper provides both services through her Consulting Group, it is important to understand the differences. Executive coaching includes supports offered to any professional that does not directly relate to a person’s professional registration requirements (as occurs within certain fields and may be referred to as Professional Supervision ie Counselling, Social Work, Psychology).

As your coach, Sally provides support for you to develop your customised action plan based on your professional goals. Sally will work with you to identify your strengths and areas for growth, while providing updated research/evidence based knowledge and strategies for you to implement in your professional journey. Sally will work with you to overcome any self limiting beliefs you struggle with and support you to develop greater confidence within your work setting.

Employee Assistance Counselling

EAP’s are an invaluable service being offered to employees across Australia. Many employers are seeing the tangible benefits from utilising an external qualified coach/counsellor to provide short term supports for employees, to promote their wellbeing and retention within their workplace.

EAP is usually offered for up to six sessions per annum, per staff member, and can extend to include sessions for their immediate family members. Common concerns presented by employees within their confidential coaching/counselling session include physical/ mental health, family, financial, emotional wellbeing.

Costings for the implementation of an EAP program vary based on the number of employees within the workplace.

Please contact Sally directly to discuss your workplace’s requirements for an Employee Assistance Program.

Professional Supervision

Supervision addresses the need to develop knowledge and skills and the need to be concerned with quality and clinical governance.

It addresses the need to ensure that professional standards are maintained and that policies and procedures of the organisation are adhered to. It also embraces the need for support for staff and is underpinned by learning from experience and reflective practice.
