Coaching
Dr. O'Riordan sees coaching as a way to keep people on task and help them to stay focused and achieve results in their projects. It is not psychotherapy, however the many years that Dr. O'Riordan has worked as a psychologist and his cultural experience in Eurpe, United States, and Asia gives him a great field of knowledge to work with people as a coach.
Coaching includes Executive Coaching is sometimes called CEO Coaching and is a professional, ongoing partnership to help people with their performance. When a person consults with a coach, the experience is like having a good tutor. It is having the opportunity to solve sensitive problems and achieve personal potential. Coaches help people to create professional solutions and become creative communicators. The process of coaching helps the employees, manager, supervisor or the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) with their listening skills, multi-cultural insights, and most of all their negative self-talk. Coaching can help the person to create inner-awareness, inner-peace and the awareness of emotional intelligence.
