Coaching
A Motivational Coach with 25 Years of Experience.
The difference in those who succeed and those who don’t is that those who succeed BELIEVE they can succeed. More than that, they actually own the role of someone who is already successful.
Studies have shown that success at anything is a direct reflection of one's internal environment. If you don’t truly, and without a doubt, believe that you can succeed and deserve to succeed, you won’t.
Those who understand much may be wise,
But those who understand themselves are even wiser.
Those who are master over many may be powerful,
But those who have mastered themselves are more powerful still.

Building Leadership Capacity to Develop Organizational Effectiveness
By Lesley Beatson
As a professionally trained coach, and a trainer of coaches, I bring passion, insight, and experience to my coaching relationships. My coaching blends the psychology of motivation, knowledge of transformational learning and organizational behaviour, mental training for high performance, and leadership development. I empower the advancement of personal leadership and organizational development.
On a foundation of mutual trust and confidentiality, I strive to build an encouraging relationship that fosters the discovery of opportunities and enables the development of positive momentum and change. I work one on one to guide clients in determining what they want to accomplish, and what barriers and options exist. With identification and achievement of short-term goals, clients can build credibility and momentum toward long-term high performance and deep satisfaction.
With improved leadership, and new skills, clients increase their capacity to achieve professional, organizational, and personal goals that are profoundly meaningful.
Psychological Training for Sport and Life
By Lesley Beatson
When working with young athletes, I teach skills and exercises for each of the topics listed below and partnering with the athlete in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires him or her to maximize his or her potential. We will frame the learning around sport psychology and set and achieve goals in the athletes sport. The techniques however, are transferable to music, academics and just about everything where it is possible to do your best.
In the early sessions we will develop goals and a learning plan. It is important that the athlete be involved in the goal setting because that is an important skill in itself.
Topics to Cover:
- Personal Awareness
- Goal Setting
- Relaxation techniques
- Knowledge of the relationship between thoughts, feelings and behaviour
- Visualization/Imagery: for use with mental rehearsal, activation & skill acquisition
- Attention Control/Focus
- Overcoming barriers to success
- Esteem Building
- Race Simulation Exercises
Personal Development, (this sounds broad, but it actually becomes quite specific because it is based on individual needs, ie-overcoming procrastination or relationship building or time management ….)
