Leadership Coaching - Chapter 1

What is Coaching

Coaching is Relationship-Based, Goal-Driven and Client-Centered.

The client set the agenda.

Your own insight is much more powerful than my advise.

"Sounds like a great solution. So is that a step you are going to take?"

"Sounds like you really made some progress!"

repeated affirmation

Coaching is a support structure for change.

Coaching is about focusing forward, not about fixing the past.

Coach pushes the client to set goals and take action to solve the problem on her own, focusing on creating a better future.

Don't set any goals you aren't going to meet

Being motivated to make a change is more important than knowing what change to make.
