Coaching questions are powerful tools that can help you facilitate learning, change, and growth in your clients. To ensure these questions are appropriate, relevant, and impactful, you need to use critical thinking skills such as clarifying the purpose and goal of the coaching session, analyzing the situation and needs of your client, evaluating the quality and validity of the information you both have, synthesizing the information and insights gained, and reviewing the outcomes and feedback of the coaching session. Additionally, frameworks and models such as GROW, Socratic, and Appreciative Inquiry can guide your questioning process. GROW can help structure your questions around four stages: Goal, Reality, Options, and Will. Socratic can stimulate critical thinking by asking a series of questions that explore underlying assumptions, evidence, and implications. Appreciative Inquiry encourages creating positive change by focusing on strengths, opportunities, and aspirations.
