SUN LEARNING PHILOSOPHY THAT GUIDES OUR DELIVERY AND PROGRAM MANAGEMENT
- Accept people as they are.
- Focus on the present listen to what is in front of you.
- Every interaction with a prospective client and actual client is an opportunity to be of service
- Maintain positive perspective.
- Continuously ask yourself: what is the learning here? For the other? For me?
- Support people to acknowledge, understand, accept, and value their differences.
- Let people know they are doing the best they can.
- Create win-win scenarios.
- Keep judgments to yourself.
- When you feel like giving an answer, ask a question instead.
- Ask yourself, “How do they see it? Feel it? Know it?”
- Every conversational step is progress, purposeful, and has value
Find the value! - Coaches are formally trained.
- Clients choose the results to be coached within the landscape of coaching and coaching is tailored to the individual needs of the client.

- Coaches believe that the client is responsible for doing the work to achieve the results and well-being.
- Coaches maintain a holistic perspective and continually look at how all life areas interrelate.
