Coaching for Executives
In the business world, ever notice how it seems to be "lonely at the top"?
Whether you run your own company or work in the corporate world, the higher your position, the more challenges you face. There are demands made upon you both personally and professionally that require you to grow in ways you never anticipated.
Yet, because of concerns about privacy, confidentiality, and workplace politics, turning to co-workers or even fellow executives may not be wise. Besides, are they really qualified to help you through the challenges, or are they just somebody to talk to?
More and more executives are finding that hiring a coach from the "outside" is the perfect solution. A great coach not only hears your problems and challenges, they can help you grow as a leader and work at a level you may have only dreamed of before. They can also help you find a better balance between personal and business lives.
Diana Chapman specializes in helping business leaders and executives
- especially those seeking to take both their personal
and business lives to a higher, more aware level. She helps guide
you in moving from your head to your heart.
Some people fear that shifting their awareness from their head
to their heart might hurt the way they make decisions. Actually,
you work even better in your head. By moving away from your Ego
and more into a state of Consciousness, you will likely find that
solutions don't come from you, they come through you.
The difference is huge.
When you try making decisions in your head, you're stuck in a box. Depending on who you are, it might be a bigger or smaller box … but it's still a box. If you're in the box, there are limits to the number of ways you can slice, dice, deconstruct and morph a problem.
In the space of Consciousness or the Unknown Zone, the box vaporizes.
You will find yourself more deeply aware of everything,
including your challenge. The mind subordinates itself in service
to the heart. You not only have access to all your "head tools",
you can use them in ways you never dreamed of.
In this expanse of the infinite, anything is possible. And the solutions don't come from your head; they come from that space of the infinite. You become connected the Source, the place where true creativity emanates. Best of all, it comes through you. When it's at its best, it's like magic.
Artists and great minds throughout the millennia have utilized this space. Mozart and Beethoven have mentioned it. So did Einstein. In Star Wars terminology, it's like the Force comes through them. And it seems to be unrelated to their personalities; the common thread is how they simply opened up to source and let it come through them.
So instead of wondering how you get out of the box, you're more likely to be asking, "Box? What's a box?"
Diana's specialty is helping people make this shift from the head to the heart. Though the shift can often be dramatic - especially for strong-willed leaders - all of her years of experience and training enable her to do this. Plus, Diana has an extraordinary gift beyond the training … she can hold the space for even the strongest and most willful of leaders.
There will likely come a critical point in your work with her: when your Ego realizes it is being asked to relinquish itself in order to make an extraordinary transformation. Remember, your Ego's primary purpose is perpetuating its own survival. It will resist change at all costs. To put it lightly, this can be a "challenging" moment. Be ready for fireworks.
Where many coaches buckle or implode, Diana holds the space with
safety, love and expertise. She can and will become whatever
she needs to be to help you through this juncture.
In some ways this is the place Diana most relishes. It is that moment at which your very essence shifts, when your Ego diminishes and Life Force itself surges in to fill the void. It is this exact moment when you shift from Ego to Consciousness, limited to infinite, head to heart, scarcity to abundance.
Once you make this shift, then Diana guides you as you make your first foray into this new landscape. She dramatically cuts down the "learning time". She'll teach you techniques enabling you to reprogram your body to accommodate the higher energy running through you. Your odds of slipping back into your old limited self are minimized.
Best of all, in this new landscape you'll find a way of living you could have only dreamed of before. Because you tap into your heart, decision-making will be much easier. In this inner world, you'll be able to tap into your heart and know what is true for you. Your outer world - the actions you take - will simply be a reflection of it.
All of a sudden you come from a place of abundance. You're playing a bigger game in life. Possibilities show up at work and home that you hadn't even thought of before. Your connections with your family and coworkers are likely to be deeper and more meaningful. You'll also find an inner strength that enables you to make hard decisions with ease and grace.
In short, it's moving from the flat, two-dimensional world of your head into the mutli-dimensional world of your heart. Life becomes richer, deeper, and more meaningful. It's literally like you get a whole new way of living - a new life.
