Coaching
Personal Performance/Life Coaching
Personal Performance Coaching or Life Coaching are interchangeable terms - they mean roughly the same thing.
Personal Performance Coaching is a relationship which is designed and defined in a relationship agreement between a client and a coach. It is based on your expressed interests, goals and objectives.
Coaching will use inquiry, reflection, requests and discussion to help you identify personal and/or business and/or relationship goals, develop strategies, relationships and action plans intended to achieve your goals. Coaching will provide a safe space for you to be held accountable to yourself by monitoring your progress towards the implementation of your goals and action plans.

The UK's Chartered Institute of Personnel Management reports that 51% of companies (sample of 500) 'consider coaching as a key part of learning development' and 'crucial to their strategy', with 90% reporting that they use coaching.
More recent research in 2011 by Qa Research, an independent marketing research agency in the UK, found that 80% of organisations surveyed had used or are now using coaching, but also found that while 90% of organisations with over 2,000 employees had used coaching in the past five years, only 68% of companies with 230–500 employees had done the same.
The basic skills of coaching are often developed by managers within organisations specifically to improve their managing and leadership abilities, rather than to apply in formal one-to-one coaching sessions. These skills can also be applied within team meetings and are then akin to the more traditional skills of group facilitation.
Executive Coaching
Executive Coaching is a professional relationship between a Coach and a Senior Manager and is based around the area of work performance. The aim is to come up with ideas on the issues that are brought and then make an internal commitment to putting those choices into practice. These can be practical ideas or these might, for example, relate to areas of emotional intelligence such as discussing the impact the executive is having on members of their team.
Corporate/Business Coaching
Similar to Executive Coaching and the term is often used to refer to work across a broader range of leaders beyond the top executives. It focuses on supporting an employee, either as an individual, or as part of a team and/or organisation to achieve improved business performance and operational effectiveness.
