The TikVah Coaching Model - G.R.O.W.S

G.R.O.W.S – The TikVah Coaching Model

The TikVah Coaching model is based on the widely used and respected GROW model developed originally by Graham Alexander and brought to the fore by Sir John Whitmore.

Although implicit in the GROW model, the TikVah Coaching interpretation has an important explicit reference to Support through the coaching relationship and helping the client remain accountable for their actions and progress… hence GROWS!

This is informed by research into contemporary and effective coaching methodologies from leading writers and practitioners such as Linda Tobey (Human Resource Development, 1999, F Sofo et al), Adler International Learning and Timothy Gallwey (The Inner Game of Work, 2000, W T Gallwey).

	At a high level the process is:
Goals	Determine the goals or outcomes that the Client wants to achieve through the coaching conversation.
Current Reality	Understand where the Client is now – the start point.  Drill down to gain real understanding.
Options	Explore the possible options and expand the Client’s choices – understanding the implications of each.
Will Do	Establish the Will – to take action and the commitment to do so.
Support	Agree the support needed by the Client – including how they wish to be held accountable.
