What Coaching Is (and Isn't)

Since you are planning on working with a coach, it's important to know what that relationship really means.  Here's how I define the coaching relationship with my clients. 

We begin by getting to know each other.  This ususally involves a 15-30 minute phone interview to see if we have a match.  You must be comfortable with me and I need to feel that my coaching will work for you.  We will be working fairly closely to help you achieve your success and it's important that we can do that with mutual trust.

Once we've agreed to move into a contract we'll handle the paperwork and you'll complete a quick assessment to clarify for each of us the strengths and opportunities you bring to our enterprise.  This will also help you to identify clearly for yourself some of the personal traits that may be getting in the way of you getting your IT.  Once identified, they may become an area of focus for you as you put together your action plan.  My coaching depends on your plan.  You must set the action steps and timelines.  My responsibility is to help you clarify for yourself a particular IT along with the steps you'll take and time you'll need to get IT. 

I'm not there to teach you how to get your IT.  Then it would more than likely end up being my interpretation of your IT.  Nor am I there to validate your IT.  You will only do all the work necessary to get your IT if it truly is your IT.  You don't need me to tell you or agree with you that anything should be your IT.

Once we start the journey to get your IT, I become your responsibility tracker.  Each week we'll meet (usually by phone) to
discuss your progress on the steps you set to accomplish.  I'll help you celebrate your short term success, analyse anything that may have gotten in the way of your accomplishments, and determine where your next steps will take you.

As we work through these discussions, you'll discover the powerful tools you have within you, and get your IT.
