Penny as coach

My photographic portrait sessions demand an immediate rapport with my subjects. This is what I bring to my coaching. I am very interested in 'how people tick' and what is happening when they don't. For me, a successful company depends on its leaders and workers being self-aware in their dealings with their colleagues. Coaching, whether top executives or new recruits, is about looking at ourselves, acknowledging things that could be different, identifying goals, and having the confidence to see these changes through.

I sometimes use photoVoyage as part of my own coaching toolkit. Used as session 1, it helps me and my client step back, take an honest look, and start to talk more easily about 'who they are', and how they feel. It moves us forward quickly and positively and we can look at these photos again any time during our coaching relationship.
