Coaching Process
A “typical” coaching process consists of the following stages:
. Diagnosis and Assessment
. Process design and proposal
. implementation
. feedback and evaluation
Most processes are 1 on 1, sometimes in organizations team coaching is facilitated.
After an initial session, focused on understanding the context and situations, identifying issues and setting initial goals and objectives, coaching sessions take place three to four times a month. As the coaching progresses, the length and frequency of the sessions is adjusted.
The coaching process is confidential.
