Coaching Delémont: why choose SHR

Coaching Delémont with SHR starts from a concrete goal set with the coachee and shared with the organisation: a new role, leadership presence, team management or workload balance. Every Coaching Delémont engagement aims at visible change at work.

Coaching Delémont relies on a three-way contract, spaced sessions and real situations worked on between meetings. Confidentiality is guaranteed: the organisation knows the goals of the Coaching Delémont, never the content.

Our coaches know the local context and can run the Coaching Delémont in the coachee’s working language, on site, at a neutral venue or online.

At the end of the Coaching Delémont, a three-way review measures what has changed. To start Coaching Delémont, a no-commitment first meeting checks that the working relationship can form.

Coaching Delémont: our local reading

In Delémont, we support SME owners preparing a handover, technical experts who became managers and executives juggling several roles. Coaching provides a neutral space to clarify roles, arbitrate between priorities and professionalise practices without unnecessary bureaucracy.

How SHR coaching works — Coaching Delémont

Useful coaching is judged by what changes at work, not by how comfortable the sessions feel. We start from a goal set with the coachee and agreed with the organisation, then track progress against it.

  1. 01

    Chemistry meeting

    A no-commitment conversation to check the fit between coach and coachee. If the alliance does not form, we propose another coach — it is the first condition for success.

  2. 02

    Three-way contract

    Coachee, manager or HR, and coach agree on two or three observable goals and on what stays confidential. The organisation knows the goals, never the content of sessions.

  3. 03

    Working sessions

    Spaced sessions that leave time to experiment in between: real situations, preparing difficult conversations, field feedback. Tools such as 360° feedback are used only when they serve the goal.

  4. 04

    Review

    A three-way review of the original goals, what has changed, what remains and how the organisation can support what comes next.

What coaching delivers in practice

  • Written, shared goals reviewed at mid-point
  • A clear confidentiality frame for the coachee
  • A structured final review with the manager or HR
  • Ways to consolidate progress after the engagement ends

What coaching is not

It is not therapy, not a disguised disciplinary measure and not a way to load an organisational problem onto one person. When the difficulty lies in structure, role or team, we say so and suggest the right lever.

Reference points we rely on

Meta-analyses of workplace coaching report positive effects on performance, well-being and self-regulation, while stressing the weight of relationship quality and clear goals. Our coaches follow a recognised code of ethics: confidentiality, no conflicts of interest, and referral to another professional when a need is clinical.
