Description
Dr. Baker's coaching involves building relationships based on honesty, openness
and trust. These, in turn, lead to mutual confidence and shared commitment
to the coaching effort. Dr. Baker uses a results driven approach with each
client taking full ownership and responsibility for setting his/her improvement
goals and being accountable for progress toward achieving them. Frequently,
clients are asked to complete self-analysis profiles to aid in gaining in-depth
knowledge of the client's personality, work and communication styles and relationship
skills. In cases involving interpersonal issues, those with whom the client
interacts may be asked to complete the same, or similar, profiles.

Format
Consulting arrangements vary with the type of issues to be resolved. Typically, face-to-face interviews are held with the individual client and three or four people acquainted with the clients issues, such as his/her boss, peers, subordinates, and/or H.R. Manager. In all, three or four face-to-face meetings are held with the client, but most contacts throughout the coaching is handled by weekly phone calls, and special calls if needed. Arrangements for boards, committees and teams are similar. There are face-to-face meetings with each member, with the entire group, and with managers involved with the board, committee or team. The client's number of improvement goals, the difficulty in achieving them and the time available for the client to work on accomplishing the goals determine how long the coaching takes. The primary focus is always on accomplishing the desired results, not the time required.
