Chances are that you know somebody who works with a coach, perhaps a colleague, a friend, or a competitor. Perhaps you yourself are “coaching” someone in your organization, team or department in an effort to implement change.
But what is coaching really?
Coaching may mean different things to different people, but the International Coach Federation (ICF), the leading regulatory organization for coaches worldwide, defines coaching as “partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximize their personal and professional potential.”
Think of it as a method for personal and professional development designed to achieve results based on the client’s goals.
