Induction normally is part of the therapy domains. In my opinion, 'induction' in coaching is used for the purpose of the 'heart of the issue concerned' (without delving deeper into the therapeutic mode); then using the 'induction state' to shift gear into a solution-focused coaching mode (not as a healing process). Induction to me is a necessary coaching tool as long as it is not further going along the line of therapeutic interventions, but using it just to the juncture that can be the 'leveraging points' to move into coaching mode (healing versus the path to 'discoveries'). Am I talking sense here or am I seeing this issue differently from the most coaches? Billy C H Teoh Malaysia.
