Life Coaching & Mentoring
The role of a Coach is to guide the client in deeply understanding their current situation and learning how to prevent similar challenges in the future. This process typically spans several sessions, continuing until the client gains confidence in managing the situation independently. Unless there are additional issues requiring attention, the coaching relationship concludes once the client’s goals are achieved. In essence, coaching is goal-oriented and time-bound.
Mentoring, on the other hand, delves far deeper. A Mentor not only helps the client navigate their current situation but also supports them in unlocking their hidden potential and working toward their personal and professional aspirations.
As David Clutterbuck aptly puts it,
“Mentoring involves primarily listening with empathy, sharing experiences (often mutually), building professional friendships, fostering insight through reflection, being a sounding board, and offering encouragement.”
We all require a Coach or Mentor at some point in life. When Mala was training to become a Certified Coach, she too was supported by a Mentor who helped her unlock her full potential and successfully complete her certification.
Mala is a certified Master Coach and Mentor with over 30 years of experience. Through her extensive practice, she has honed a unique approach to coaching and mentoring, earning her the affectionate nickname “Mama Mala” from many of her clients. Why? Because of her exceptional listening skills, ability to connect with individuals from diverse cultural backgrounds, and her empathetic, adaptable communication style.
Mala has also developed her own signature model, C.I.P., which she consistently applies and embodies in her work.
She has provided mentorship to MBA students at Birkbeck College (UCL), Entrepreneurs in the NatWest Accelerator program, and business owners through the Grow Movement.
Mala’s passion for coaching and mentoring is unparalleled. She is dedicated to bringing out the best in her clients, provided they are willing and committed to trust the process.
