The advantage of coaching is that you can improve your capability to manage all the stressful situations related to the PhD in a short time.
INDIVIDUAL COACHING
Number of sessions: 6
First Session (+-4h): Set your objectives for the coaching
Example: I am not confident about my paper so when I present I look scared and people notice that and tell me that I should look more confident. I want to gain self-confidence in presenting.
Following Sessions (2h)
The coach guides you through your process to reach whatever you set out to and points out which strengths can help you achieve those goals.
If needed, you can meet for 4 extra sessions and also do a last follow up after 10 months.
TEAM COACHING
Number of Sessions: 7
First Session (+-4h): Set your objectives for the coaching
These objectives are different for each individual within the group
Example: I don’t know how to take decisions, so I can’t decide on what projects to work on. I hope that others will take decisions for me. Objective: learn how to get leadership skills to increase my capability of decision-making
Following Sessions (4h)
The group discusses the experiences with the different ways you tried to reach your goals. The debate is led by the coach who can point out which tools can be used to reach each of the goals.
Sessions are every 20-25 days so that you have time to experiment and reach your goals set in the first session and increase your awareness about your strengths and weaknesses to reach your goals.
The power of the group, everyone facing their own issues separately but in it together, can create great dynamics!
