FCF offers several different types of coaching:
LIFE COACHING
What, exactly, is Life Coaching?
It's a 12-month commitment to a process that will enable you to grow personally and also see significant effects in your ministry. Your coach will assist you in identifying God-inspired goals and dreams that you want to see fulfilled and then - step-by-step - walk you through a course of action to achieve those objectives. Your goals. Your dreams. Your agenda. Your coach is there to help you see them realized. Coaches are change experts - they help you get to your intended destination!
How does Life Coaching work?
You will connect with your coach every two weeks via a 30-minute phone call. You and your coach will determine which day of the week and at what time the sessions will take place. You will set your goals and decide what topic(s) you want to discuss during each session. Your coach will assist you in deciding what strategy to employ in order to achieve your goals and what action steps to take. In between sessions, you will work to complete your action steps.
How much does it cost and how do I get started?
The cost is $225.00 for twelve months (made payable to FCF). In addition, some coaches may charge up to $25.00 per session. To get started today, contact one of our Lead Coaches at Coach@fcf.org.
SHORT-TERM COACHING
Tell me about Short-Term Coaching.
We recognize that sometimes a 12-month coaching commitment may not fit every situation. Short-Term Coaching is designed to assist you through an event or transition or help you achieve a ministry goal. This type of coaching usually lasts from six weeks to several months. The aim is to support you in arriving at your desired end.
Describe what to expect during Short-Term Coaching.
First of all, the goals and objectives of this coaching experience are understood and agreed-upon before the sessions begin. The time, frequency, and duration of the coaching calls are determined ahead of time. When the calls begin, the coach will walk you through a supportive process that helps you achieve your desired outcome.
What's the cost?
There is a fee of $25.00 and each coaching session is $25.00. Contact one of our Lead Coaches at Coach@fcf.org to begin today.
STRATEGIC COACHING
I'm not familiar with Strategic Coaching. What is it?
This type of coaching focuses on discovering the Holy Spirit-inspired blueprint for implementing the vision that God has given you and your ministry. God has a strategic plan for carrying out the vision He has entrusted to you. Your coach will walk you through a step-by-step process that enables the plan to become a reality. Strategic Coaching brings vision to fruition.
What does this process look like?
This is a proven nine-step process that involves you and your core leaders in such important practices as assessing the present state of the ministry, reviewing, establishing, and clarifying your Vision, Mission, and Core Values; determining your Key Focus Areas; Identifying Key Results and Measures; deciding on Key Actions (strategy); and more. This process is ideally accomplished by three on-site visits to your ministry by a Strategic Coach. He/She will guide you and assist you every step along the way. Succinctly put, your coach will partner with you to help you map out your strategy, establish some "next steps," fully engage your members in the process, and empower you to realize the goal of impacting your community (and the world)!
What is the financial outlay for something like this?
The recommended cost of this process is $1,000. It should be noted, however, that payment plans are available. In addition, some scholarship funding is available. It is our goal to make this as affordable as possible for every ministry, no matter what the size. More information is available when you contact one of our Lead Coaches at Coach@fcf.org. Contact us today - we're looking forward to working with you!
LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT COACHING
What exactly is Leadership Development Coaching?
We provide a proven, systematic method for developing quality leaders who are able to reproduce other leaders. This approach will equip and develop people in their leadership skills, enabling them to pursue a path of continual improvement. It is Scripturally sound and builds leaders from the inside out - consistent with how the Holy Spirit works in us!
What can I expect?
A trained coach will walk you and your leadership team through the three major phases of this exciting process, designed to equip and develop people in their leadership skills and abilities. Three on-site visits will furnish you (and your leaders) with the tools you need to develop greater leadership abilities. Phase 1 focuses on assessing the needs of your ministry and administering the DISC behavioral profile to you and your leaders. This will enable participants to understand themselves - and others - to a greater degree. Communication and interpersonal relationship skills (inherent in excellent leaders) will be enhanced. Phase 2 equips leaders to intentionally apply to themselves the types of behaviors that are exemplary among proven leaders. A personal assessment is given to each person and individualized leadership growth tracks are developed. Phase 3 entails training in a proven, successful, time-tested leadership model that provides a flexible structure for personal leadership development. Ongoing coaching, training, and support will be provided continually throughout the entire three-phase process. The result - leaders who are continuing to grow and develop, taking your ministry to the next levels!
What is the cost?
Two personal assessments will be given to each leader who participates; the total cost of these assessments is $50.00 per person. In addition, there is a $300.00 fee for Leadership Development Coaching. One of our Lead Coaches can provide you with more information when you contact them at Coach@fcf.org. We'll be happy to assist you.
ONE-ON-ONE LEADERSHIP COACHING
Tell me about this kind of coaching.
What drives the focus of this coaching is the desire to develop people to serve as leaders in every area of life. Leadership development for teams is important; but individual leadership progress is also vital. We develop people to serve as leaders in every area of life. When you have been entrusted with the responsibility of leading God's people, continual leadership improvement is not optional!
What can I expect?
One-on-One Leadership Coaching is similar to the Life Coaching approach. The weekly calls of this 18-week process highlight certain leadership practices, identify specific leadership behaviors, pinpoint areas for leadership growth, and design exact action steps that lead to personal development. The result: Individual leadership development that fosters perpetual growth - the kind that develops others as leaders. In other words, this coaching approach to leadership makes it impossible for you to grow without growing others as leaders, too!
What's the cost?
The fee for this type of coaching is $100.00. In addition, the purchase of a book and personal assessment are required (approximate cost is $35.00). When you contact one of our Lead Coaches at Coach@fcf.org, they can assist you in getting started.
