Controversial? π²
I've heard some coaches say things like:
"Let the client guide the session"
"The client is in charge"
"A coach's role is to ask questions and let the client find the answers"
I disagree. π€
Yes, it's important to listen to your client and to understand where they're coming from.
It's also important to talk about and deal with the issues most important to them, and to find the answers together.
But your client came to you in the first place because they're struggling to figure things out by themselves.
They're not just looking for a sounding board or a shoulder to cry on - they can get that from friends and family.
π They're desperately looking for an expert to help guide them, and to discover real solutions to real problems.
I see coaching as a partnership, but with the coach setting the rules of engagement.
π₯ Effective coaching involves using a proven and evidence-based framework, alongside the coach's skill and expertise, in order to provide practical strategies and concepts that make a real and positive difference to the client's life.
