Bryan's philosophy regarding coaching is that every client is capable and resourceful when it comes to discovering the solution to get them from where they are now, to where they want to be. The power in this partnership lies in the ability to determine, through reflective inquiry, what is really getting in the way of what this whole, capable, and resourceful client says they want. This takes the coaching conversation well beyond mere surface level tasks, exploring deeper into the client's thinking, often challenging assumptions, interpretations, and limiting beliefs that may be holding them back. As a result, the client can discover new awarenesses, which empower them to develop actionable steps that ultimately result in sustainable behavioral change.
