I wrote yesterday on how getting a coach can improve your life and even double your income. This article is more about clarifying what a good coach does and doesn't do. Here are some thoughts:
- Impart skills and knowledge
- Impart confidence and understanding in the use of those skills
- Motivate people so as to bring out the best in them - usually encouraging them beyond what they thought they were capable of doing
- Model the importance of learning the basics of a skill
- Point the protege to other appropriate resources and links them with other professionals.
- Observe the protege in action
- Evaluate the protege's experience and gives feedback towards further development.
Remember, if someone is challenged to deal with past issues and hurts, they probably need a counselor instead of a coach. Part of being a successful coach is being a person of integrity and directing people to where they can get help and being honest about when that person isn't you.
To your success!
