Partner Lifestyle Coaching

 

Partner Lifestyle Coaching Programme

 

A programme of coaching specifically orientated towards the Partner in a large firm - focussing on issues of healthy lifestyle, stress management, values, goals and the future. 

 

This programme is designed to set in place habits of self care, self affirmation and self awareness. It will centre on the  patterns of management of work, leisure, relaxation and family. It is designed to promote health and well-being in terms of both psychological health and physical health.

 

The programme provides a space for a life review, scanning and processing aspects of regret, success, failure and achievement. It gives attention to the  examination of core values  and aspirations for the future. In the course of this there is a large focus on attitudes and emotions around money and finance and in particular on the issue of security, and how the inner and outer aspects of security relate and the need for them to be aligned and in balance.

 

Where appropriate, it will give focus to the subject of retirement. It will examine the lead-up to retirement in work, in terms of  holding self-esteem and kudos in the workplace and in terms of  the plans, hopes and concerns about  the future and actual retirement. It will help the individual construct an honest and realistic plan for retirement, preparing him for the adjustments that will need to be made. It will focus on the dynamic of relationships and family life and distortions or compromise that may have formed over the period of work life.
 

The role of the partner requires qualities of 'gravitas', authority, leadership and high performance - this must be an authentic position and  cannot be feigned or cracks will appear and seismic fault lines will appear in the psychological structure.

 

 

 Self-care, self awareness, and self esteem can be consciously cultivated as habits in the lifestyle of the partner.

 

 

For the partner to take on the mantle of 'elder', he needs to have gone through a form of personal transformation, surviving the twists and turns, the falls and recoveries, the failures and successes, to reach a plateau from which his presence of ease , authority, and wisdom communicates itself to those coming up from behind.
