GROW model

Using the card during the coaching session

At the beginning of the development process, the objective is to form a bond based on mutual trust and acceptance between coach and client. The structure and expectations should be clear in the cooperation so the client can see, what kind of trend and technique will serve as the foundation of the coaching. The GROW model can make the individual stages transparent and easy to understand so the client will be well aware of which step comes after another.

The model

The GROW model is one of the most popular and widely used tool in the personal/business development sector.
The standard was introduced by Graham Alexander, one of the most famous executive coach of the United Kingdom, along with John Whitmore, highly respected author of many textbooks and a pioneer of coaching and leadership development.
This model mainly focuses on problem solving and achieving the desired target, concentrating on the process of finding a solution.

Cards supporting the development process

The symbolic development cards cover basic models used in different steps of the developement process (primarily in coaching),which contribute both to the development of self-knowledge and support the client to further progess towards reaching his goals.

CIA model (control, influence, adapt circles)

With the help of the model the factors which can neither be changed or influenced by us can be identified. It is more sensible to focus on the aspects we can influence, where we have a chance to directly impact the situation.

Internal beliefs

When the client defines precisely the achievable goal, he should get conscious about the automatic thoughts which prevents him from changing. After that the automatic thoughts shall be converted into positive enabling thoughts.

Scale

To grasp a subjective measurement, we are using a Scale. The coach card can be easily used throughout the coaching session to express improvement and progress, and also to define trust and belief.

SMART

The acronym - SMART - helps determining the target. The smart objective is specific, measurable, achievable, relevant and timely.

Solution Focused Therapy model

This esentially solution oriented model concentrates on the desired goal. How the client - guided by the development expert - should be able to visualize his objective; also how he should accouter by all the tools and components that will support them in reaching their target.

SWOT

After setting the objective, the model supports the client to prepar a status analysis evaluating their internal resources, what can they expect from their surroundings, the supportive and withholding factors of reaching the desired goal.

The Miracle Question

This model is one of the tools of the Solution Focused Brief Therapy, which concentrates on the desired outcome, how the client, guided by the coach, can visualize the chosen target and also the required attitude and behavior to achieve that.

Traffic light

This modell assists the client to pinpoint what should he continue, optimize and change -based on others' feedbacks and own self-knowledge- in his life in order to get closer to achieving his goals.
