Description
Summary:Research objectives and hypothesis/research questions The aim of this article is to analyze the theoretical foundations of coaching and to present the practical application of this method in the process of individual transformation. The author discusses key theoretical concepts that constitute the foundation of coaching, such as self-reflection and the development of competencies. Furthermore, the article presents a case study illustrating the real-life application of coaching techniques and their impact on the transformation process of the participant. The findings indicate that coaching, as an interactive and reflective process, can significantly contribute to personal growth, increased motivation, and the achievement of both life and professional goals. Research methods The research was conducted using a mixed methods methodology. The case study was carried out based on the structured interview technique, which involves analyzing a specific situation in which a structured interview was employed as a tool to support the coaching process. Main results Coaching, as a process of development and analysis, has the potential to support lasting and profound changes in individuals’ lives. This article explores how coaching influences personal development by stimulating reflection, fostering conscious decision-making, and facilitating change in both personal and professional domains. The significance of the coach-client relationship is emphasized, along with the role of an individualized approach in achieving the desired outcomes. Implications for theory and practice The continuation of research and the further development of coaching applications are crucial for the advancement and refinement of this field. This enables a more precise and tailored application of this form of support in various contexts, such as professional and personal development.
