My Offer
Coaching
I offer Coaching in the following areas:
- Personality Coaching
- Executive and Management Coaching
- Orientation and Target Coaching
- Team Coaching
- Burnout Prevention, Stress and Time Management Coaching
Diagnostics
I understand Diagnostics as a tool and methodology to discover strengths and to detect development areas of an individual, of a team or an organisation. I focus on development.
Workshops
During my workshops I focus on development of leaders, managers and their teams.
Coaching
My approach is a solution- and potential-oriented one, the objective being the support of people’s development and the full use of their potential in their business and personal environment.
As a Professional Certified Coach I see my role as that of
- A Sparring Partner who asks questions in order to raise the level of reflection and to listen
- A Supporter with know-how and factual input
- A Solution-oriented Coach
- A Behavioural Consultant
My working approach to Coaching is to gain a clear understanding of the current status quo and the objectives of my coachee/client. I then focus on developing, with my client, a procedure which will be fruitful, future and solution oriented, and of value to my client, based on the principle that everyone has his own best solution within. I support the reestablishment of these resources.
Setting Examples
- Topic: (New) Orientation
Where am I today? What can I do? Where am I headed? Development Coaching Established in 2020, begins with short intervals between sessions, intervals becoming longer as coaching develops - Topic: Strategy and procedure in a new leadership position
½-day Coaching - Topic: Self-presentation and self-confidence
For example: Female people manager in a male environment 1 hour Coaching session every three weeks for six months - Topic: Stress-reduction and health
Two hours Coaching (45 min jogging or walking and stretching together, at a pace which accommodates conversation) - Topic: Team Coaching – accompanying a team in its development to become a high performance team
– One day team coaching every two months for a period to be defined
– Individual interviews with team members prior to ½ day team coaching sessions every two months for a period to be defined flexibly
Diagnostics
The basis of diagnostics is defining a current personal status quo positioning.
This is possible in
a private context
In a private context I offer diagnostics in the form of a personal definition of status quo which can serve as a:
- Basis for a coaching process
- Basis for a new or a re-orientation
- Basis for own career and development measures
The aim of defining the status quo is to find answers to the following questions:
- Who am I?
- Where am I today?
- What is my potential?
- Where am I headed?
In a business context
I offer diagnostics in the following settings:
- Beginning from a personal status quo definition as
Basis for a coaching process
Basis for a new or a re-orientation
Basis for own career and development measures - Recruitment and selection assessments, Management Audits
(individual and group settings) - Development and support assessments (group settings):
To recognise and create a strengths and development profile and from there define development measure
My approach to diagnostics incorporates behaviour and actions as well as diverse tests (e.g. MIND ONE PotentialPLUS) and questionnaires, as required.
Setting Examples
- Promotion and Development Assessment
For a group of employees in an organization an individual strength and development profile is recommended to enhance further working and development plans as well as to define future career paths. - Personal Positioning
A person mid-career (perhaps aged 40) wishes to reflect on the issue of remaining career and seeks clarity on personal future goals. - Recruitment And Selection
A vacancy is to be filled either with an internal or an external candidate. The best fit based on the defined criteria will be selected during the assessment.
Workshop Moderation
After a needs analysis and goal definition, I create a process oriented concept (through the use of appropriate tools, by doing, and through gaining experience).
My main fields of interest are
Moderation of leadership circles and management meetings
Team building workshops
(see team coaching)
Imparting the tools and process of coaching
to executives and line managers
Workshops in connection
with developing a leadership personality
Follow-up workshops in connection
with development assessments
Orientation workshops
Setting Examples
- Team development with top executives
Workshop with 20 top executives after a merger, to create and define common goals, procedure and cooperation rules and tools - Coaching tools for managersTransferring know-how and tools to a group of line managers
- Team building workshop (see also team coaching)
Following formation of a new team within a specialist department, a workshop is held to implement collaboration team goals and tools e.g. Workshop “On Stage”: The team prepares a theatre play including marketing plan, programme and press conference. - Moderating important executive meetings
As an external moderator facilitating important strategic meetings
About Me
Carmel Lee Paul
CLP my initials and at the same time the name of my company: Coaching – Life – Personality, which matches my principles and values. This, for me, means supporting people to see clearly, to recognise themselves and to enhance their personal development. I was born into an Austro-Irish family and have worked and lived for several years in different European countries as well as overseas in North and Central America. As a result I am not only passionate about personal development issues but also about differences in cultures and countries. My working style is characterised by empathy for, enjoyment of, and curiosity about others, coupled with broad expertise and know how in HR and leadership issues as well as a practical and pragmatic implementation approach.
I have 30 years’ experience in coaching and counselling and I have accompanied hundreds of people in their professional and personal development. I do this with great respect and much admiration and awe for the openness and potential of people.
