My Career Transformation from Engineering to Coaching
In my career journey that I started as an electronics engineer, I gained international experience by taking part in high-level projects in the defense industry and abroad. At the same time, I signed many innovative projects in the field of technology and software using my entrepreneurial vision. However, the failures in my entrepreneurial journey led me to coaching support four years ago. This process had a transformative effect not only on my business life but also on my personal life. I discovered the power of listening and searched for more meaning in my life. In my engineering days, this search deepened; while working patiently through thousands of pages of technical documentation, my unwitting patience and desire for discovery gave me the courage to move towards coaching.
My Coaching Journey
My introduction to coaching was not only a career change but also a lifestyle choice. A year ago, I took ICF-approved coaching training to share these experiences with others. During the 144-hour comprehensive training, I gained theoretical knowledge and improved myself with the support of mentor coaches. So far, I have coached for over 300 hours and worked with many local and foreign leaders and professionals. By adopting a questioning-oriented approach, which is my greatest strength in coaching, I have helped my clients discover their own values, talents and dreams. I believe that each individual is unique and I aim to unlock their potential in a non-judgmental manner.
My Coaching Approach
Coaching aims to create awareness rather than guiding individuals and to enable them to shape their lives in line with their own preferences. I focus on productivity and planning in business life and inner peace and connection in social life. We conduct our meetings via Zoom and each session lasts 50 minutes. I stand by my clients to help them achieve their goals, discover their inner strengths and find more meaning in their lives.
What Coaching Means to Me
I see a strong connection between my engineering background and coaching. The patience and analytical thinking skills I developed in engineering allow me to create space for my clients to discover themselves in coaching. Especially in complex situations, my approach of asking the right questions and listening helps my clients to unlock their potential. For me, coaching is not just a certificate or a title gained through training; it is a continuous learning and development adventure. I continue to improve myself with the support of mentor coaches when I have difficulties and I know that this journey is never-ending.
Time to Change Your Life
I am here to create awareness in your life, to help you achieve your goals and to help you discover your inner strength. I offer coaching in English, so I can offer a broad perspective. If you are looking for more meaning and balance in your life, we can work together to achieve these goals. Coaching offers you the opportunity to discover not only where you want to go, but also how to get there. To meet and discover what coaching means to you, you can send us a message for a free half-hour introductory call.
What You Need to Know About Professional Coaching
Coaching does not give you direct advice or investigate the root of your problems; it focuses on the client discovering their own answers. Unlike mentoring or counseling, it supports you to discover your own potential and find your own solutions. The coaching process moves at the client’s pace to achieve the goals they want. Being open to change and actively participating in this journey plays a key role in achieving your goals. The coach helps you uncover your own strength and potential by confronting you with probing questions. You are the most important actor in this process; real change is possible with your awareness and effort.
How I work
We set goals in the introductory session. We make agreements in packages of 5 or 10 sessions. I can also work with corporate clients over 5-10 sessions after the introductory meeting. I also offer group coaching and team coaching services. I work with institutions in Ankara. Each session is customized according to the needs of the client and progress is made by receiving feedback at every stage of the process. Communication and trust are my main principles during my work. Are you ready to embark on this journey?
