What is Coaching?

When I was first exposed to Coaching, all I could tell you is what it’s NOT. I knew it wasn’t counseling, mentoring, or consulting. But what exactly IS IT?

The International Coaching Federation defines Coaching as “partnering in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires a person to maximize their personal and professional potential. The process of coaching often unlocks previously untapped sources of imagination, productivity and leadership.” In other words, the process of coaching helps the client move from where they are to where they want to be in any area of life, and they often discover surprising and enlightening things about themselves along the way.

If you’re new to the idea of Coaching or simply want to learn more about it, you can visit the ICF’s Experience Coaching website to explore coaching concepts, statistics, videos, resources, and more!
