What Coaching IS NOT

Coaching is not Mentoring• Mentoring - passing on of

knowledge, experiences, and skills

• Usually by someone who is older and wiser.

• Has normally achieved the goal themselves

• A Coach may not have any experience in the given coaching area.

Coaching is not Consulting• A Consultant uses his/her own skills to improve a

given situation. • Whereas, a Coach brings out the Client's expertise to

do so.

Coaching is not Therapy or Counseling• Therapy/ Counseling - focus on feelings related to past

events • Coaching is oriented towards goal setting and

encouraging the Client to actively move forward.• Tony Grant from Sydney University said, "Therapy is

like helping someone with a broken leg to walk again. Coaching is helping them to run the four minute mile."

Coaching is not Fixing• No Coach can ‘fix’ a problem for a Client. For that

matter no Coach can ‘change’ a Client. Only a Client can do that.

• It is not the job of the Coach to direct the Client to any given way forward.

• The Coach lives by the motto that every Client presents himself or herself to the Coach whole and complete, able to generate his or her own perfect answers.

Coaching is not Training/ Teaching• Training is directive, driven by the Trainer who will tell,

instruct and generally control most of both the process and the content.

• In coaching it is the Client who does most of the talking and with the facilitation of the Coach increases his/her level of self-awareness and clarity around the goal and the way forward.

So what IS Coaching really?

Simply put• It’s a powerful conversation between a Coach and a

Client where the Coach uses tools like questioning, listening, intuition, observation and feedback.

• The use of these by a Coach helps a Client uncover for himself/ herself the fastest and the best way to move forward and deal with their challenges.

• The power of coaching can be best experienced through an actual session. Words cannot describe adequately how it works.
