Welcome to Impact Coaching

Welcome to impact coaching, my name is Rob Lindegger.

I have been involved with coaching and mentoring in a private and on a professional basis for a number of years.
Recently I resigned from full time employment to focus my energy on a field I have found fascinating and from which I have gained a lot of personal satisfaction. Being a naturally empathic person who enjoys listening, as against talking, this seemed a natural move.
My introduction to the Coaching process was in London in the late 1970’s. I was helping with weekly classes of under privileged children, on a volunteer basis. Coaching had found a foothold in the United States of America and was in its infancy in the United Kingdom. The positive response, to the coaching process of those children impressed me.
I then lost contact with coaching until the late 1980’s in Tanzania. I was working with a French Hotel group. My superior returned from America and handed me a book on coaching and mentoring. I introduced coaching within the group senior management development programmes. After the positive results shown, ongoing mentoring proceeded.
Working with communities on the edges of game protected areas in Tanzania, I used coaching to promote the advantages of conservation and deriving income from tourism.
The above grass roots experiences have provided me with life coaching and personal development skills that I successfully incorporate in my person-centred style of coaching.
I have accumulated approximately 9,000 hours of coaching and mentoring experience, 70% in the corporate environment.

My Coaching Model

The Co-Active Coaching model was developed by the Coaches Training Institute in the 1990’s.
I work on the basis that people have the ability to satisfy their issues and achieve their dreams. I know what is important for you and work as your sounding board of truth. I will challenge and be truthful with you, to achieve your ambition.
Impact Coaching is an active listening and constructive questioning process, enabling the client to reach the answers. A good relationship between Coach and Client is necessary for change to take place. In fact, the quality of the relationship and the level of trust is more important than the Coaching approach.
I work with clients to find the way forward that feels best for them. My clients always have the power to decide what they want to talk about and when they are ready to finish Coaching.
