CLEAR is another popular coaching model that is similar to GROW, but with some differences. It stands for Contracting, Listening, Exploring, Action, and Review. The contracting stage is about establishing the purpose, scope, and expectations of the coaching session, as well as building rapport and trust. The listening stage is about giving your full attention to your salesperson, using active listening skills, and reflecting back what you hear. The exploring stage is about helping your salesperson discover their strengths, challenges, opportunities, and options, using open-ended questions, feedback, and challenge. The action stage is about helping your salesperson design and commit to a realistic and achievable action plan, using SMART criteria. The review stage is about following up on the action plan, celebrating successes, identifying learning points, and agreeing on next steps. CLEAR helps you create a collaborative and supportive coaching relationship, listen deeply, and facilitate learning and growth.
