What is Coaching?
I’m always happy to pass on great info...and this is great info! I’ve included a few snippets below lifted from the full article.
Coaching
Coaching involves the belief that the individual has the answers to their own problems within them.
The coach is not a subject expert, but rather is focused on helping the individual to unlock their own potential. The focus is very much on the individual and what is inside their head. A coach is not necessarily a designated individual: anyone can take a coaching approach with others, whether peers, subordinates or superiors.
‘Coaching’ is one of the essential leadership styles identified by Daniel Goleman
The key skill of coaching is asking the right questions to help the individual work through their own issues.
