Tool of the Week: Defining The Way Forward

Without a way forward, it's just a nice conversation

This week on The Practice Plan, we’re zooming in on one of the most important, and often most rushed parts of coaching: Defining the way forward.

When we take a coaching approach with someone, it can be easy to focus on the insight, the “aha” moment, the question that helps to shift the other person’s perspective. But, insight alone is only one part of the equation.

We need action to create change.

If we end a conversation without a clear path forward, we didn’t coach… we just had a really nice conversation.

Joining me today to provide insight into the importance of this step in the process and to give us some specific questions to keep in our back pocket is Cohd coach Jackie Lesser.
