Integrative NLP Coaching

For Entrepreneurs, Executives & Business Leaders

Skopos is an ancient Greek term used in various forms.

As a verb: to peer about with the aim of clarifying purpose and setting goals. As a seeker finding a path and then aiming toward a goal.

As a noun: an observer who focuses on a distant mark or future aim. As a spotter does for a marksman, providing guidance to improve the aim.

The mission of Skopos Coaching is to assist clients on their journey to clarify their purpose and achieve their goals by tapping into their source of wisdom.

1.

Wisdom

Your experience and knowledge provide the foundation for making wise decisions. Much of those learnings reside in the unconscious mind. They even can be clouded by emotional baggage. Coaching taps into your inner wisdom by providing a structured way to release the baggage so you can see more clearly your path.

2.

Clarity

Your vision for an ideal future comes into focus as you clarify your values. Values help establish boundaries and create a decision-making filter. Coaching can elicit your values—the deepest level programming that drives your behavior. Then, coaching can help you to adjust the hierarchy of your values so that you can more easily achieve your goals with congruency.

3.

Purpose

Your sense of purpose adjusts as you pass through life or career transitions. Having a clear sense of purpose helps focus energy to achieve your goal. Coaching assist you in developing contemplative practices such as mediation, prayer and seeking insights from your spiritual tradition. As you embrace your purpose you will show-up fully present in all areas of life.
