Question 1

What does coaching mean at Catalyst Point?

Accepted Answer

At Catalyst Point, coaching is a focused partnership that helps you think clearly, act confidently, and lead with greater impact. You bring the goals and challenges; we help you work through them with practical questions, honest feedback, and action you can use right away. It’s about progress, not theory.

Question 2

What certifications do you hold?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we’re certified by the International Coaching Federation (ICF) and the Center for Executive Coaching. We also use tools like the ProfileXT® Total Person Assessment and the Genos Emotional Intelligence Assessment to bring clarity and data into your coaching journey.

Question 3

Do you offer team coaching?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we specialize in team coaching because great performance is a team effort. We focus on improving collaboration, clarifying roles, strengthening trust, and aligning goals. Our process often starts with interviews or surveys to understand dynamics, followed by workshops and coaching sessions to drive measurable results.

Question 4

How long do coaching engagements last?

Accepted Answer

Engagement length depends on your goals.
We generally require a minimum six-month commitment because meaningful behavioral change takes time. Sessions typically begin weekly and shift to bi-weekly as progress builds.
In our experience, sustained focus produces sustained results.

Question 6

Do you offer meeting facilitation?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! We’ll help you clarify objectives and desired outcomes, then design and facilitate a session that ensures clarity, alignment, and actionable results—not just talk.

Question 7

What helps you build real trust on your team?

Accepted Answer

Trust starts with what you do consistently. When you lead in a steady, honest way, your team knows what to expect. You also need psychological safety, so people feel free to speak up, admit mistakes, and challenge ideas. That means you’re willing to say, “I don’t know” or “I got that wrong.” From there, you reinforce trust through the CARR Framework: Connection, Appreciation, Recognition, and Reinforcement.

Question 8

What are practical ways you can improve team performance?

Accepted Answer

Start with the basics: set a few clear priorities, define what success looks like, and make ownership unmistakable. Then keep your communication direct, repeat what works, and build simple rhythms your team can rely on. If your team feels stuck, you usually don’t need more complexity—you need more clarity, accountability, and consistency.

Question 9

What does the CARR Leadership Framework help you do?

Accepted Answer

CARR is a practical leadership model that helps you build stronger teams through Connection, Appreciation, Recognition, and Reinforcement. You use it to create trust, motivate people, highlight the right behaviors, and repeat what works. It’s simple, actionable, and designed for day-to-day leadership.

Question 10

What should you expect from your first session?

Accepted Answer

Your first session is about getting clear. We’ll talk through your goals, the challenges in front of you, and what’s getting in the way. You should leave with a sharper view of the work ahead and the next step to take.

Question 11

Can coaching sessions be done virtually?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We can coach virtually, which makes it easy to stay consistent no matter where you’re located. If an in-person format makes more sense for your team or organization, we can talk through that too.

Question 12

Is coaching confidential?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We treat your coaching conversations with discretion and confidentiality. If your organization is involved, we’ll be clear about what stays private and what, if anything, is shared.

Question 13

What does a typical coaching engagement look like?

Accepted Answer

It starts with understanding your goals, your current challenges, and what success needs to look like. From there, we build a focused plan, meet regularly, and keep the work practical with clear actions, accountability, and review. You get support that moves you forward, not just good conversation.

Question 14

What should I do to prepare for coaching?

Accepted Answer

Come ready to be candid about what’s working, what isn’t, and what you want to change. It also helps to think about a few specific situations you want to handle better. The clearer you are upfront, the faster we can get to useful work.

Question 15

How do you know coaching is working?

Accepted Answer

You measure progress against the outcomes you care about most. That might mean clearer communication, stronger presence, better decisions, or improved team alignment. We check in regularly, compare what’s changed, and adjust the plan so the work stays tied to real results.

Question 16

Who is leadership coaching best suited for?

Accepted Answer

Our coaching is a strong fit if you’re a newly promoted leader, a senior leader in transition, or part of a team dealing with friction, misalignment, or performance issues. If you need to lead more confidently, communicate more clearly, or get better results from your team, we can help.

Question 17

How much does leadership coaching cost?

Accepted Answer

Pricing depends on the scope of the work, who’s involved, and how long the engagement needs to run. We’ll talk through your goals first, then recommend the right structure before you make any commitment. If you’re exploring a team or organizational engagement, we can scope that separately.

Question 18

How do I get started with Catalyst Point?

Accepted Answer

Start by reaching out and booking a conversation. We’ll talk about what’s going on, what you want to improve, and whether coaching is the right fit. If it is, we’ll map the next step and move from there.

Question 19

What results can I expect from coaching?

Accepted Answer

You can expect practical change, not abstract theory. Most clients want clearer thinking, stronger presence, better decisions, and more effective leadership habits. For teams, that often shows up as better alignment, healthier trust, and stronger performance. The work is tailored to your goals, so the results stay grounded in what matters to you.
