What is Coaching?
ICF defines “coaching as partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximize their personal and professional potential”
Coaching has been defined in many ways. The essence of coaching is:
To help a person change in the way they wish and helping them go in the direction they want to go.
Coaching supports a person at every level in becoming who they want to be.
It unlocks a person’s potential to maximise their performance. Coaching helps them to learn rather than teaching them.
Coaching has traditionally been associated with sports. Every top athlete has a coach. In the last few years, coaching has become applicable in every area, in business and in every aspect of life as well as sport.
Now, it is quite normal for someone to see a coach to help them achieve their goals in their life and work.
Coaching is a partnership between coach and client.
The coach helps the client to achieve their personal best and to produce the results they want in their personal and professional lives. Coaching ensures the client can give their best, learn and develop in the way they wish.
The coach need not be an expert in their clients’ field of work.
It is useful to distinguish coaching from similar activities.
Mentoring
Mentoring is when a senior colleague, seen as more knowledgeable and worldly wise gives advice and provides a role model. Mentoring involves wide ranging discussions that may not be limited to the work context. A mentor is a sponsor with great professional experience in their client’s field of work. Both mentoring and coaching are concerned mainly with achievements in the present and the future.
Counseling
Counseling is working with a client who feels uncomfortable, or dissatisfied with their life. They are seeking guidance and advice. A counselor works remedially on a client’s problem.
Therapy
Therapy is working with the client who seeks relief from psychological or physical symptoms. The client wants emotional healing and relief from mental pain. Therapy deals with the client’s mental health. Coaching deals with the client’s mental growth. The client’s motive for entering therapy or counseling is usually to get away from pain or discomfort, rather than moving towards desired goals. Coaching is not remedial, it is generative. Both therapy and counseling are more likely to involve understanding and working with past experience than coaching.
Training
Training is the process of getting knowledge skills or abilities by study, experience or teaching. The trainer by definition is the expert, and the training course is likely to be targeted on specific skills for immediate results. Training is also likely to be one to many rather than one to one.
Consultancy
A consultant provides expertise and solves business problems, or develops a business as a whole. A consultant deals with the overall organization or specific parts of it and not individuals within it. Consultants only indirectly affect individuals.
Teaching
Teaching passes knowledge from teacher to student. The teacher knows something the student does not. The opposite is true in coaching. The client is the expert and the client has the answers, not the coach.

Testimonials
Nasreen is an exceptional Executive Coach for Leaders. I’ve worked with a number of coaches over the years and she has been by far the most effective and the most practical. Nasreen worked with me to help define specific desired outcomes for our time together and then created an actionable plan to achieve my goals.

It has been an absolute pleasure being coached by Nasreen. She is exceptionally knowledgeable, engaging and professional. It was my first time to take a psychometric test. I absolutely enjoyed it. She was very quick to understand what makes me tick but more importantly able to help me understand some of the weaknesses that I was unaware of.

Nasreen was an excellent coach to me. She helped me not only to improve my self-awareness but also to set an action plan to achieve my goals. She asked the right questions, the right assessment of the situation and she built trust. I strongly recommend Nasreen to whomever is looking for a coach to take them to the next level.

The sessions I had with Nasreen changed my perspective of coaching. I was initially uncertain about the benefits of coaching however my coach was able to read me well. I enjoyed the psychometric assessment session feedback. It was new to me. I have learned a lot and I strongly recommend Thrive Impulse.

I have worked with Nasreen on some coaching sessions. The sessions were fun and full of energy. The standard of service provided by Thrive Impulse is Exemplary and I would not hesitate to recommend them. My own performance has improved. They were very flexible and as a result the coaching was tailor-made to suit my requirements.
Abdulaziz Hassan, Office Manager
U.A.E
My relationship with Nasreen and Thrive Impulse has been very valuable for several reasons, the opportunity to get objective feedback on my sessions. I was able to exploit my strengths and improve in many areas of risk or blind spots. I definitely reconnected with the power of my own instincts and enhanced my confidence listening to what my 'guts' tell me. I value very much being able to stay in touch with my coach, she is ready to listen and help. She is not the typical consultant or coach who gives you theoretical advice. Her advice is practical and effective.
Stalin Sunny, Director - Sales and Marketing, Risland,
India
Nasreen is fun, optimistic and compassionate. The rapport comes naturally while speaking and after few minutes you feel like you know her for ages and so you open nicely and freely. Nasreen genuinely wants to help people and transform lives for the better. She shares naturally and spontaneously messages of resilience, agility, and hope. Nevertheless, she can be bold and challenge you out of your comfort zone as well as push you to come to the awareness of your real issues fast and in a nice way. She finds the way to make you realize what are your next steps and actions to take to develop a new perspective of your issues. While completing coaching session with Nasreen you will soon find within you the Impulse to Thrive to a happier you.
Jerome Blanchard
Vice President of Sales, Beaute Luxe
Before I do my Birkman assessment I thought I know everything about myself, after I did the assessment, I realized myself more deeply and professionally. After every one-on-one session I feel relieved, happy and more energetic, I never felt so good about myself till I started doing this assessment with Mrs. Nasreen. I can truly call you my best mentor.
