Many prospective executive and leadership coaches wonder whether coaching would be a good fit for them or not.
We have found that there are five criteria that suggest that someone would find coaching to be a fulfilling next step in their career and that they would be effective at coaching:
- You have a passion for helping people develop and be their best. Many of our members share that developing others has been among the most rewarding activities and achievements in their careers.
- You have a natural orientation towards possibilities and opportunities. You look forward vs. backwards.
- You have a talent for listening, dialogue, and collaboration. You can stay in the moment during a conversation. You have what might be called “conversational agility.”
- You have something that makes you credible. It could be in-depth study in a field (e.g., business, psychology, law, technology), a track record of achievement, or experience in an industry or type of organization.
- You have something that makes you credible. It could be in-depth study in a field (e.g., business, psychology, law, technology), a track record of achievement, or experience in an industry or type of organization.
