he also focused on my history, in only a short time leading me to recall the strength that I used to have but lost. She is now helping me to retrieve this strength from a deeper mind layer so that I will be able to draw on it whenever it is most needed.
She is the type of professional coach who can accompany you in a meeting and discuss details with HR managers overseas. I highly recommend Ms. Araki to executives of both Japanese and foreign companies.
She also encouraged me by saying “Offer your own way of coaching without depending too much on techniques.” Since then, I am on my journey to finding my own style.
Masae’s feedback from a broad point of view helped me deepen self-awareness. I originally expected a mentor to coach based on ICF test requirements, but I got to see how a real professional coach is in action.
Through actual coaching sessions with her, I deepened my understanding of specific coaching skills, such as the value of silence during sessions, feedback and suggestions from a coach, as well as broad concepts such as the core or definition of coaching, along with Core Competency.
It is one of her strong values that she is able to deliver words both in English and Japanese depending on contexts or levels of understanding.
