At its core, the coaching process is about developing a relationship between the client and coach that:

• is client-centered.
• is based on building and maintaining mutual respect and trust.
• embraces open and authentic two-way communication.
• uses a variety of tools (e.g., assessments, exercises, self-reflection) to uncover client values, motivations, obstacles, and goals.
  
• assumes the client is able and ready to fully engage in the coaching process to enact real and meaningful change.

Coaching offers clients a structured, yet flexible process for self-discovery, problem identification, action planning, and creation of a pathway for client change and success.  Learn more about the coaching process here.
