Programs for Spouses, Couples, Families

Family Services: Coaching for the Couple

An international assignment makes a couple's relationship vulnerable. Pressures to keep up with work demands may keep the leader traveling and working late which translates into less time with spouse and family. This separation is occurring at the same time when the spouse is most in need of his/her partner for support as they are feeling their way into the new culture. In many cases the distance created exacerbates the issues that were always there in the couple's relationship, but were manageable without the additional stress of the international experience.

The couple's coaching program is an action oriented program for spouses to:
  • Define their goals for each of them individually, as a couple, and for their family while on the assignment
  • Lay the foundation for the achievement of their couple's vision.
  • As a couple and as leaders of the family, use their challenges as opportunities to support each other to achieve their goals while at the same time strengthening their couple's relationship in the present and for the future.
Benefits:
  • a more rewarding international experience
  • a completed international assignment
  • a deepened appreciation for each other
  • a shot of energy for the relationship lasting into the future
Couple's Coaching programs are usually delivered by phone with email support. Duration is often 12 hours over 3 months.
