What Makes a Great Coach

Written by Sandhan
"A coach, to my mind, needs to fulfill some basic requirements: gain the trust of the client and co-create with them a supportive environment, be non-judgmental, be a good listener, be able to ask the right open-ended questions to establish the client's needs and respond accurately, communicate effectively in language the client understands, and show a sense of humor to lighten the atmosphere when necessary."

Your First Year As A Coach - What to Expect

Written by Hannah McNamara

So you've decided to become a professional coach - CONGRATULATIONS!

As a coach you have joined a growing group of individuals who are making a difference in the world. You have the potential to earn a living doing something fantastic, but how long will that take?

There are lots of people entering the coaching profession right now. For every person who goes on to make a success of their practice, there are several who decide that it's not the path for them. How can you make sure you give yourself the best possible chances to be successful as a coach?

Have you ever thought to yourself, “I will get out there big time when.. my website is finished/ my business cards are done/ my program is completely designed, I have that one skill I am missing…. or any other ‘good reason’ why you couldn’t do it NOW? After all you want to make a good impression, right? And in the meantime you are fretting because your cashflow is getting tight, clients are not showing up in large enough numbers to pay the bills, and you are getting stressed and frustrated.

Setting goals and actions using Octagons

Written by Martin Sadler
This is a technique I use with clients to help them to identify the steps they need to take to achieve the goal they have set for themselves. I like this method as it helps to cluster similar types of steps together and also allows you to move steps up and down to ensure the steps are set out in the correct order. It is also useful if the client can see where steps from different strands link together as this can also help to identify what steps are important and the order they need to be completed by.

Neurological Levels refer to a set of structures and patterns that underline our thinking regarding our behaviour and our ability to change and learn new things. This model devised by Robert Dilts one of the founders of NLP is an extremely powerful and useful tool to use when coaching clients.

In 2009, during the Global Financial crisis, a handful of coaches made $1million/ pa, 9% made 6 figures internationally, while most struggled to pay the bills. What makes one Coach a financial success while another struggles?

Were the successful ones better coaches? There are many excellent coaches who struggle despite their passion for coaching, their qualifications and experience. So the answer is not found in the quality of coaching. We all have to deliver a high quality product to even qualify for this coaching game. That’s a given.
