International Coaching Week 2008: Day 1
February 3rd, 2008 by Cristina Favreau
Q: What is coaching?
A: Coaching is a supportive relationship with a trained professional that enhances their clients’ ability to learn, make desired changes, solve problems, and achieve goals. It’s a way to help people make the best use of their own resources, bringing out the best of people’s capabilities.
Because coaching is goal- and results-oriented and can focus on any area of life, a coaches help their clients set goals and reach them.
Coaches work with their clients in a series of regularly scheduled sessions on an individual basis or in groups. Coaching is mostly done face-to-face or by telephone, but may also be conducted by email or any other means, as long as it’s convenient for everyone involved and the client gets the most out of each session.
