Programs:

Coaching may be either in-person or by telephone!

Training is most often carried out in person.

However, On The Threshold’s approach to working with clients is often a blend of coaching and training, so even training can be done by phone.

Many people ask about coaching over the phone. Coaching done by phone is VERY effective. We have the client base and testimonials to back that up. In addition to being comfortable, convenient and cost effective for the client and their Organization, it enables a developmental relationship that can span virtually any geographical distance. John routinely works with people across Canada, the United States, Europe, Australia, Jamaica and more. Geography is no limitation as shown by On The Threshold’s International clientele! In fact, many of the testimonials you see on this site are from clients who have been coached by phone.

1. One on One Coaching Packages:

For ‘One on One Coaching’ there are 3 options to choose from. See “Contact” section for details.

2. Developmental Coaching:

Developmental Coaching succinctly describes the synergistic power of coaching and training! On The Threshold offers unique programs blending the most effective elements of cross categorical learning combined with Coaching into a structure that makes success both attainable and sustainable! Here, the offerings are for both advanced and introductory levels of Leadership Development. Contact John to find out more about his 10 session Integrated Leadership Coaching Program with 360 Assessment and our Developmental Excellence Program for creating ‘team centered’ staff excellence. John brings his wide range of experience and learning to help his clients learn, grow, lead and ultimately succeed. Growth and change are 2 big reasons why people find On The Threshold Coaching and Training to be a truly transformative experience.

3. Combination Packages of Training Followed by Coaching:

Coaching after training has consistently demonstrated that it is one of the most powerful ways of taking the learning from a program and making it real. Think of the difference between reading about exercise and actually doing it! It works so much more effectively and deepens the learning in a way that makes it last. These packages can be customized for the needs and budgets of individuals, small business and corporate clients.

“I have sat through a number of similar courses and found without coaching, the learning’s are rarely retained. By working with a professional coach such as John I have developed some invaluable skills for life. The coaching cements and develops the skills. The coaching sessions have helped me to work on issues that are specific to me. These sessions have progressively helped me grow both personally and professionally. My coach was fantastic. He was engaging, flexible, challenging and understanding.” – A.C.

Client Testimonial of the Month

"John was fantastic! His impact - every coaching session I walked away from I felt empowered and confident that I will do better going forward in life. John always sounded very high energy, positive and receptive. His questions made me think and they also lead me into a few personal discoveries about myself as a person."
Blog Alert! Do you have “Generational Conflict” at work?

Check out this link from The Center for Conflict Dynamics for a very interesting and informative blog about "Generational Conflict" - http://www.conflictdynamics.org/cdp/blog/
This is something that more and more people are becoming aware of in the workplace as the differences between 'Boomers' in managerial positions and 'Gen X' can contribute to conflict at work.
John uses the Conflict Dynamics Profile to help his clients become more comfortable and competent to deal with conflict. Contact us to find out more!
Gender Differences in Emotional Intelligence?

“Who’s more empathetic? Men or women? The politically correct answer is to say neither – that empathy depends on the individual. And to a large extent, that’s true. But a growing body of research has begun making that politically correct view untenable. Dozens of studies, for instance, have shown that women are generally better at reading facial expressions and at detecting lies....The female brain is predominantly hard-wired for empathy. The male brain is predominantly hard-wired for understanding and building systems.”

Daniel Pink (from "A Whole New Mind") continues by referencing a Cambridge University psychologist, Simon Baron-Cohen and his own book "The Essential Difference" where he states that “...not all women have ‘female’ brains and not all men have ‘male’ brains. But he (Baron-Cohen) marshals an array of support for his central point: that more males than females have brains that systematize and that more females than males have brains that empathize...Systematizing involves exactness, excellent attention to local detail and an attraction to fixed rules independent of context...to systematize, you need detachment...But empathizing is different. To empathize, you need some degree of attachment in order to recognize that you are interacting with a person, not an object, but a person with feelings, and whose feelings affect your own. Empathy he says involves inexactness...attention to the larger picture...context (a person’s face, voice, action and history are all essential information in determining that person’s mental state) with no expectation of lawfulness...The male brain sounds a little like L-Directed Thinking. And the female brain sounds a lot like the high-concept, high-touch approach of R-Directed Thinking.”

He concludes to say that we need both – “Sometimes we need detachment; many other times we need attunement. And the people who will thrive will be those who can toggle between the two. As we’ve seen again and again, the Conceptual Age requires androgynous minds.”
