Finding Solutions The job of a coach is NOT to provide you with the answers to all of your problems. A coach's job is to partner with you and your team to help YOU identify problems and solutions. Why? Because coaches know that we are the most invested when we create our own solutions, and we have the most passion for the paths we create for ourselves.
Trusted Feedback Having an honest advisor who will ask you the tough questions, or provide candid interpretations to the thoughts, ideas, and opinions that you provide, can make all the difference.
Accountability
Knowing that you have someone who WILL ask you about your progress and efforts, and hold you accountable for your actions is powerful. Many of us thrive when we know we will be accountable to someone else. This isn't a flaw, simply a fact. Embracing this understanding of ourselves and working with someone who will hold us accountable is often a huge step on the path to success.
