Creating Coaching Relationships
Coaching relationships should not be confused with performance-based management.
As pointed out in Creating Passion-Driven Teams, the overarching purpose of a coaching relationship is to “build a better you.”
Here are several definitions of Coaching that we like:
“Partnering in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires people to maximize their personal and professional potential.”
(from The International Coaching Federation)
“Coaching is a relationship designed to help you:
(1) clearly define your goals and dreams,
(2) uncover the obstacles and self-imposed limitations
that stand in your way to success, and
(3) get you into action to start to create the results you are seeking.”
(from Susan Biro, a Professional Coach certified by the Coaches Training Institute)
“Consultants give you answers, Coaches ask you questions.”
(from James Flaherty, author of Coaching: Evoking Excellence in Others)
