Encouragement starts with listening.
Everyone responds differently to different types of encouragement.
It is important to have the essence of encouragement in all of your coaching.
In coaching, we encourage the person,not the results.
Acknowledgement is a powerful component of encouraging and is not to be confused with praise or compliments.
Language, recognition, focused time and trust are four of the most common ways we can encourage someone.
