"Coaching" is a very popular term nowadays, unfortunately many people use it wrong. Check your knowledge.
Coaching is NOT:
Direct guidance, when vested in power manager tells to a subordinate what to do exactly to achieve results
Consulting, where a client is given with ready solutions on defined performance indicators
Mentorship, when a senior expert shares their knowledge and wisdom with a younger learner
Coaching is:
Relationship where both client and coach are jointly working on settling goals, defining priorities
Long term process, resulting in building new competences for the client through new insights, practices and self awareness
The major outcome is the client builds responsibility for their own life.
