Personal Groundwork for Coaching Program™
When coaching, the only place a coachee should be lead by a coach is into deeper discovery about themselves and their situation. However, leading a coachee into the coach’s way of thinking is strictly off limits. The chasm between the two is often a murky and gray area for many coaches. How do you bring someone into new awareness and discovery without tossing something out that comes from the coach’s line of thinking?
For years, the Personal Groundwork for Coaching Program™ has been used by coaches to do just that. It allows coaches to highlight and explore areas that are often at the source of where a coachee becomes stuck, self-defeating or demotivated. The Personal Groundwork for Coaching Assessment™ and accompanying workbook is a widely used tool to help coaches move their clients past daily symptoms and into the deeper source of what gets in their way when moving toward bigger and broader goals.
