What to talk about during your sessions
The great thing about coaching is that you set the agenda. Only what you decide to discuss is brought up in the conversation. The coaching relationship is focused so that you achieve the results you want. Your coach in turn ensures that the session always steers towards that goal, that achievement, that fulfilment, that success.
There will be times when you have specific questions that you want to explore. Otherwise your coach will tend to ask the questions. The questions are framed in such away that as you answer them, and having been given the forum and the space, you will find that you discover the answers for yourself.
Any feedback from your coach is served as 'feedforward', moving you along in a way that supports you to achieve your success.
