Coaching is not just about “doing” the skills (the “What”) and following a process (the “How”). An equal partner in the art of coaching is “WHO” you are being as you are coaching.
The “mindset” of the coach makes the fundamental shift from being that person who just dispenses advice into being a true catalyst for the growth and transformation of others.
How you think as a coach, what you believe as a coach, and how you “show up” as a coach is in fact the whole key to your clients’ success and ultimately yours.
