Leadership Coaching with Rehana

Rehana’s Approach to Coaching

Clarity of Direction

Knowing where you want to go and how to get there is a big part of being a leader. My coaching offers you a safe and supportive container to reflect on your context and connect with the inner space from which you lead, to gain clarity of direction, one step at a time.

Tending to the Heart

Our emotions are a part of life, and are an important source of information for sensing our present, past and future aspirations.  Many leaders struggle to find spaces to be held, emotionally, because they are often holding the emotions of others, and thinking on behalf of the whole. Coaching with me, is a compassionate space where emotions are welcomed with tenderness and curiosity without judgement or shame. We don’t need to bear the weight of our emotions alone, together we will practice mindful awareness and self-compassion towards our emotions to gain deeper insight.

Moving through the Stuck

Leadership involves being with complex situations and creatively finding ways through.  My coaching will help you see your situation from different perspectives, from the inside out, so you can become aware and rewrite your limiting beliefs, and open your vision to the supports available to help you get unstuck.  

Trusting Inner Wisdom

I believe that we each have the knowing we need inside of us and yet it can get eclipsed by our conditioned mind and social contexts. My work as a coach is to support your inner wisdom to come out, and to support you in accessing that inner wisdom on your own, after our coaching journey is over.

Thought partnership, strategic foresight and innovation

As a thought partner, I walk with and support you in navigating the leadership questions you face, offering creative insight, and strategic thinking to support you in seeing more of the whole and devising next steps toward your goals.

Being in the unknown

Part of being a leader is standing in the unknown, able to hold open the space of possibility for long enough for the future to emerge.  For most, this is not only deeply uncomfortable, but also terrifying. We will practice being in the unknown together, feeling safer in uncertainty, and practicing listening for what wants to emerge. 

In the Body

I will work with your mind and body, knowing they are one. My coaching supports you to be in your body, listen to your body and make sense of its wisdom.

Compassionate accountability

I will hold you compassionately accountable to your goals, the practices that will help you move towards them, supporting you to be in integrity while holding your humanity with compassion.

Wholeness

Wherever you go, there you are. This approach bridges the personal and professional life, since they are interconnected and leadership happens everywhere.
