What Is Coaching?
Coaching is a Professional-Client(s) relationship with a certified coach that is designed to facilitate the creation/development of personal or professional goals and to develop and carry out a strategy/plan for achieving those goals.
The coaching relationship between the coach and the client(s) is founded upon mutual trust and respect. The central focus of the coaching relationship is the well-being of the client(s).
The coach supports the client(s) in reaching the desired outcome of the client(s) and in exploring new ways to view situations, individuals, and possibilities and in developing new approaches, plans, strategies, and actions.
Coaching can provide new understanding about how an individuals, groups, or teams own actions play a part in situations the individual wishes to change.
Coaching conversations are confidential, and the coach will not voluntarily divulge information about a coaching relationship without the written or verbal permission of the client(s). The coach follows the International Coach Federation (ICF) Code of Ethics.
