What
is one to one coaching?
This
is normally when you meet face to face with a trainer
or coach. The training or coaching session would normally
be custom made for you personally - probably following
an email exchange or telephone discussion (or both). Its
because of this one on one time that you can achieve a
lot in a relatively short amount of time.

This
can be an ideal solution for your training if you want concentrated
personal time from the trainer instead of "sharing"
them with a group of other people on a training seminar or course.
Alternatively you might not be able to take one or two days
off work at a time to attend a course but could spend half a
day working on some specific trainnig needs with a coach.
You
might be wanting some specific help with a forthcoming speech
or business presentation. On the other hand, you might want
some personal and of course confidential time reviewing some
interpersonal communication issues that you face. Whatever the
training need there's probably a coach or trainer not too far
away from you who could help.
One
thing to bare in mind though is that as this is a one on one
session with the trainer it might well cost a bit more than
attending a seminar with another 10 people.
We'd
always suggest that you speak to the trainer ahead of the event.
Make sure you dont need to commit any money up front before
you get that initial telephone call. Use that call to "sound
them out" before you make your final decision. If you like
what they say and you feel that the fee they are quoting is
reasonable then go ahead and make the booking. If you dont feel
this way, then walk away and continue looking until you are
comfortable with your chosen trainer or coach.
OK
so how do I find a coach?
We'd
suggest the same way that you've found our website. Search the
web. Google is probably the best at this. Remember to be as
specific as you can be in your search phrase. If you are looking
for public speaking coaching in New York then dont just search
for "public
speaking" or "public

Google for "public
speaking coaching New York"
