Mentoring and Coaching
The outstanding success of BalanceCare Platinum's corporate psychology advisory and consultancy programme has resulted in the creation of Phronim, an elite global coaching and mentoring service. Providing exclusively for senior management, professional and governmental clients, Phronim takes advantage of the highly selected cadre of senior and PhD psychologists within its international network. Coaching, the currently popular generic term for developing professional and personal business and life skills, is properly defined as directive training where the coach gives the client skills and techniques relevant to the task or problem they are facing. Coaching is, in psychological terms, largely a 'left-brained' process. Mentoring, a less frequently used term, is the alternative to coaching where the mentor enables the client to develop ideas and get to solutions through appropriate questioning and interpretation of the client's existing achievements. Mentoring is, in psychological terms, largely a 'right-brained' process. In reality, the effective personal facilitator and enabler uses a combination of coaching and mentoring styles depending uponclients' preferences and material under consideration. This is the Phronim rationale for employing the services of only senior applied psychology practitionerswho have already benefited from many years of implementation of coach-mentor experience. Together with our providers' long experience of the business needs of our client organisations, this ensures for our clients that our style of personal development is, indeed, based upon PHRONIMOS, the Greek word meaning 'wisdom'.
