How coaching works
What is coaching?
The International Coach Federation defines coaching as "partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximize their personal and professional potential...Coaches honor the client as the expert in his or her life and work and believe every client is creative, resourceful and whole."
Your role as the client is to:
- Share your dreams and vision of the life you want to create and the best version of yourself that you are evolving into.
- Focus on what's truly a priority. You clarify and make choices based on your purpose, values, strengths, and goals.
- Learn new things about yourself and how you relate to the people and the world around you.
- Commit to specific actions that will move you forward.
- Develop yourself, often creating change from the inside out.
My role as the coach is to:
- Listen fully with compassion.
- Ask questions to help you find your own answers.
- Encourage you to stretch to your full potential.
- Strategize and brainstorm with you to determine next steps.
- Hold your vision and provide accountability.
- Acknowledge your way of being as well as your doing.
