Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q: How do I choose a coach?
A: Working with the right professional coach can have a profound impact both on your success and fulfillment. Given the significant commitment of time, energy and money that working with a coach would require from you, it would be in your interest to spend some quality time on the selection of the right coach for you.
- Interview several and have sample sessions. You want to make sure you have a rapport with your coach and can have the basis for respect and trust. Ask for a sample session. Ask for references. And at the end, trust your “gut” feeling in this process.
- Know what you want in a coach. Do you have, in mind, a male or female, or age preference for your coach? Are there specific personal styles that you are drawn to? To the extent you can articulate clearly what you are looking for, you can find your match faster.
- Know what outcomes you seek. Do you want to focus on your career, your relationships, your work/life balance, or something more specific?
- Know what you need. Coaching is not therapy. Make sure you understand the difference between the two and are really seeking the right venue for your needs.
