What is coaching, really? 🤔

Here's the ICF's definition of coaching: partnering up with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process, which inspires them to maximize their own personal and professional potential. This process is supposed to inspire the client to maximize their own potential. Do you hear the difference? So it's a process of inspiration. It's not a process of execution, or it's not a process of fixing clients' problems or telling people what to do. It's literally, hey, let me actually demonstrate my ICF gold standard coaching skills in a way that you feel so inspired and then you go take your own action and hold yourself accountable for your own problems because you have all the resources, you have all the power within.
