We Unleash Talent Through Coaching

From our beginnings on the tennis court, we have operated on the premise that people have within them the potential to perform at a higher level. A coach can help them clear the interference they feel to become their best selves.

At InsideOut Development, our team is passionate about three beliefs:

  1. The finest service we can give another human being is to make it safe for them to explore their own experiences.
  2. All people are on a journey to become the versions of themselves they aspire to be.
  3. The world (my company, my team, me) can be changed one conversation at a time.

We Help You Build Sustainable, High-Performance Results with Our InsideOut Approach™

Interference

Interference

Our approach to coaching is predicated upon the belief that people are capable, phenomenal learners and that their full potential has not risen to the surface. This is due to the internal disruption we feel in response to outside distractions, which we call “interference".

The InsideOut approach™ helps coaches use a mindset of “how can I help this person release their potential,” rather than “what can I tell them to do that would improve their performance.”  The resulting conversation creates an environment of psychological safety and increases ownership, engagement, and results.

Mindset

Mindset

Based on both our mindset about people and our understanding of the nature of high performance, we developed our GROW® coaching model. The GROW® approach to coaching is specifically designed to leverage this understanding to achieve the most predictable results. GROW® is a simple-to-understand, highly portable, and scalable methodology that can be applied anywhere from the shop floor to the C-suite and at every level and function in-between.

Results Framework

Results Framework

Creating lasting change requires a lot more than training.  In our effort to help our clients truly create sustainable cultural improvements and results, we use a change management and implementation process developed by InsideOut called the Results Framework

It is a proven and highly adaptable approach that uses the same GROW methodology to help a client implement a coaching culture based on GROW.

Goal

Goal

We know that every environment is different, and we don’t ask you to fit our model – we adapt ours to fit your needs.

The bottom line is that our goals are directly tied to your goals. From minor adjustments to major custom work, we want to ensure that our solutions fit into your organization’s culture, meet your needs, and help you achieve your goals.
