The Challenge An executive from an international training company wants to reinvest in his life and plans to take some time out to review past accomplishments and remotivate himself for future visions. He is looking for new perspectives as he prepares for the next phase of his life.


Experiential Personal Coaching The xpand-pro approach: A four-day Experiential Personal Coaching course is set up and conducted in the Swiss Alps. Starting in the valley, the question "who am I" is tackled in the context of reviewing what has gone before. There is then time for reflection and coaching along the way, as he and his coach hike up the mountain, a literal but also symbolic journey to the mountain top. In the course of the journey, Mr A's skills, personality and strengths are all highlighted and his values re-considered. These are then used as inputs to defining a life goal, so that by the time they reach the summit, he has a clear picture of how to carry on and fulfill his calling. As they come back down the mountainside, he starts to break this newfound vision into discrete goals as well as considering resources such as a mentor, who would assist him in reaching those goals. - Outcome Mr A comes away with an overview of his skills, strengths and values, clarification of the environments that motivate him and confirmation of his field of interest. Most importantly, he has a renewed vision for his life, that empowers and motivates him and fills him with passion. “I have a clear vision for life now! It was fascinating and overwhelming how I got involved as a whole person. The workshops and tasks that challenged the mental part of my being gave me a clearer picture of myself and my potential. The physical experience through the outdoors spoke to my emotions and helped me to think big. This combination helped me in catching my vision. The individual coaching sessions and the conversations with the others during the hikes have been very supportive as well. You did a great job through challenging and coaching me as a whole person through the different tasks.”
