Coaching for a Cause Program

Through ActionCOACH’s Coaching for A Cause Program (a free of charge business coaching service for non-for-profit organisations), I have coached the AGL Action Rescue Helicopter Service since January 2010, and over that time, I have built a strong relationship with the team and the board.

The chopper rescue team performs life saving rescues, runs medical and search missions and saves lives throughout South East Queensland. The rescue crew is on call 24 hours a day, 365 days a year and has served the community for over 30 years. It wasn’t until a family member of mine was in a serious accident and the helicopter transported her to a Brisbane hospital, that I truly understood the importance of the service, and of course am grateful for their existence.

Working with this team has taught me a lot about the not-for-profit organisations, the importance of communication, the necessity of rescue services, as well as helped me to improve my coaching technique.
