Biography

 

Stephen Lane

Stephen is a passionate and well-respected professional coach and therapist. Known for challenging his clients to draw upon and develop existing skills and gain new insights, perspectives, awareness and create strategies for success; he empowers his clients in a unique and lasting way.

His relaxed yet serious approach makes the process of change seem easy, enabling the client to focus on, discover and explore their own talents and solutions to life’s challenges and to take responsibility for the remarkable results that are achievable in reaching their goals.

Stephen has coached people from a variety of backgrounds including corporate executives, SME business owners, entrepreneurs and professionals in many fields with great results.

Stephen has come from a background in the aviation industry as both a professional pilot and engineer.

Having travelled to many destinations worldwide and experienced life amidst varied cultures; Stephen’s prolonged exposure to cultural differences and varied philosophies prompted him to learn more about people, social behaviour, communication and the workings of the human mind.

Introduced to the field of NLP - Neuro Linguistic Programming - in 1998, Stephen has since qualified as a master practitioner of NLP. Much of the coaching he delivers involves an element of NLP to create lasting change for the client.

Also as a fully qualified hypnotherapist, Stephen provides his clients with the support, encouragement, and strategies to achieve their goals, and to overcome fears and phobias, create and promote well-being and a balanced lifestyle.

With a desire to learn more about the mind and human and social dynamics, Stephen continues to explore the boundaries of the mind and human experience through continued professional development. He hopes to carry out research in partnership with major research institutes for psychology and medicine in the future.

Stephen also has plans to make available his skills, experience and these life changing tools and practices in a voluntary setting to those in need at home and in some of the less developed regions of the world.

What’s behind the name? Chiasmus Coaching

Chiasmus – [ky-AZ-mus] Noun. (Plural- mi)

A figure of speech by which the order of the terms in the first of two parallel clauses is reversed in the second. From: khiazein, meaning, "to mark with an X”, indicating a "criss-cross" arrangement of terms. 

e.g., "Take care to get what you like
or you will be forced to like what you get."
George Bernard Shaw. T he Revolutionist's Handbook . (1903)

I use the word Chiasmus because it represents a similarity to the process of coaching, in that, the same contents, issues or challenges as seen differently from a changed perspective will produce a different meaning, outlook and result.
