For people in recovery from alcoholism or other substance use disorders, coaching provides a confidential and supportive partner to sift through the issues relative to recovery that may be triggered at work and to address them in real time. Coaching also can support employees who want to leverage the tools learned in a twelve-step or other recovery program to improve job performance.
For the organization that has supported a high value employee through alcoholism or addiction treatment, coaching protects your investment. Where aftercare or participation in a recovery fellowship support an employee in their off hours, coaching supports the employee on the job, in real time.
Whether a person has a specific challenge to address, or wants to transform as a sober person in the workplace, coaching can provide the one-to-one support needed to move them forward.
A coach will listen attentively and be fully present, asking powerful questions and raise the client’s awareness about things that may be in his or her blind spot.
Return-to-work Intensive is a coaching engagement designed to support a person as he or she returns to work after an extended absence due to treatment.
