About Our Services Our Coaching Services

What is “Coaching”?

“Coaching” is a methodology to support you (client) for “creating an answer” based on the belief that the seeds of an answer lie within yourself.
Teaching and Mentoring provide specific answers for the client based on the knowledge and experience of a teacher or a mentor. Unlike these methods, the role of a coach is to support you to learn from the experience of deep reflections and co-creating an action with you. The coach will accompany you to support your journey for translating your inherent strengths and potentials into actions and performing at your best.

Our Coaching and Assessment Services

Ontological coaching

Among various coaching methods, 35 CoCreation (Sango CoCreation) offers “Ontological Coaching,” which is still rarely practiced in Japan.
Ontological coaching is a coaching model that focuses on the way of Being, as ontology is a philosophy of existence about who you are as a human being.
For example, imagine you choose to be behind the wheel as a driver, what do you see? On the other hand, imagine you are forced to sit in the driving seat against your own will, what do you see? You will probably see a whole different scenery as you are a different observer in those contexts.
By recognizing the possibilities of yourself and those around you that you used to believe that there was no such thing until now, your awareness, beliefs, and perceptions will change, and how you act will also change as a result.
In the ontological coaching framework, when you transform your way of Being by looking at yourself and the world around you as a different observer, your action will change, and what you will obtain as a result will also essentially change.

Observe

When you change your point of view to observe yourself and the world around you, how you act and the result from it will also change.
Our coach will support you to observe yourself more deeply about your emotional and physical states, as well as the language you speak.
Act

When you can see yourself as an observer, your perspective or point of view will change. Different options for action that were not available before will emerge. As a result, how you act will also change.
Result

When you change how you act, your emotional state and your influence on the situations will also change.
The coach accompanies you all the way to get to the results you want to achieve.

Client Voices

- Client’s Challenge
  
  The managers do not understand the value of coaching at the client company and their attitudes are passive toward installing 1on1 coaching sessions. Most of the managers stick to the belief that past and current practices provide answers for the future with assurance. Office politics are playing negative influences across the organization and team members do not feel safe at their workplaces.
- Our Solution
  
  First, we offer a basic group workshop on coaching and provide an opportunity for managers and leaders to understand that coaching is an effective method for changing themselves.
  As a next step, we offer (1) one-on-one coaching sessions with top-tier leaders and (2) group coaching sessions with middle-tier managers who are divided into group coaching circles of three to four people simultaneously.
  We encourage them to discover the barriers that each of them thinks that they need to overcome through coaching conversations and co-create actions to leave their familiar shores to set forth to the unknown possibilities.

- Client’s Challenge
  
  At the in-house training session, team members cannot break out of their shell of vulnerability because they are too conscious about the assessments of other colleagues. The client company also do not present an ideal leadership vision to their people.
- Our Solution
  
  We host an open coaching platform for those who self-nominate to join a series of coaching sessions. It is a unique cross-border coaching circle with participants from different organizations without any common agendas and strings attached. This creates a solid psychologically safe place for them to freely express, converse, and coach each other.
  Through coaching conversations, receiving feedback from one another, they can acquire new self-awareness, recognize their personal growths and transformation after the program for six months.
