Case-Study - Fundraising Consultant

International Fundraising Consultant and coach for social ventures, other fundraisers and foundations.

Brief:

The coachee wanted to refresh and rejuvenate competences and confidence in her coaching and mentoring techniques.

Results:

The sessions helped the client across her work life not just the work she sought specific coaching for.
At the end of the 6 sessions, she better understood her role as coach, her role as advisor, and doer, and confirmed her own 'style' as being valid.

Additionally, the coaching client uncovered a greater confidence in her approach: she developed her own personal fingerprint, she validated her attraction towards collaborative environments, and confirmed the value of being creative, even in a context that traditionally doesn't always lend itself to be this way.

Coaching's main outcomes in the client’s own words:

• more self trust
• a happier client relationship with very positive outcomes,
• a healthier work-life balance with client I sought this coaching for
• tools that support my approach/theory of change
• I came up with a new term to describe what I do to affect change

Three major contributions by the coach, in the client's own words:

• provided a valuable framework
• encouraged me to value my own natural approach rather than encourage a new 'off the shelf' one.
• considerably increased my confidence as a senior practitioner and remote worker.

Client’s additional thoughts:

“Coaching has unlocked concerns about myself. My coach created a safe environment to creatively address blockages and challenges to really be the best I could. She challenges you to think hard and deeply about the solutions, patterns and self-awareness anyone needs to realise their professional passions.”
